Problem is we don't have a sure-fire closer that can be relied on for clutch baskets.


We do have one in klow... Jush wish Casey would draw up more plays for him at end of games. Also i'm not sure I like Vasquez closing out the 4th instead of Ross.

He is probably the closest thing we have to one, but not sold.

Although the combo of Vasquez and Lowry on perimeter D is scary in crunch time, I like the dynamic of the 2 points on offence.

I didn't get why Casey stuck with Novak for so long and brings out fields for all of 2 mins

I'm gonna go see them play the Knickerbockers.

No playoff tickets available for the public yet, only to season ticket holders.

Big win last night against Hou despite being undermanned. Another test on Fri against the recently struggling Pacers.

Great game yesterday. It's also nice to see that we get some breaks for once unlike past seasons. The refs were kind of late when Linsanity stole the ball momentarily and tried calling a time-out, but thankfully the refs did nothing and enabled us to get possession to end the game.

I like Vasquez. Did you guys hear his interview? He sounded like a rap star at the Grammys thanking God, lol.

Another amazing game from the raptors. They beat one of egged best teams in the east without Lowery and Johnson. Let's go red let's go raptors...

Great win for the Raps. Off topic, but Durant is nuts. Even though OKC lost, his 3's at the end to keep the streak going, was simply amazing.

They just keep grinding out those wins! Pleasant surprises against 2 quality teams missing 2 important pieces. Val is really improving as the season goes on. He's been able to keep up the intensity on D while cleaning up his technique and reducing foul calls. Thing are clicking more for him on O as well, and Casey is actually calling some plays for him now.

The team is the best "team" we've had.

They blow me away game in and game out.

In just worries these other teams know something we don't and are tanking because of the amazing and deep draft class this year!!??

With any luck wiggins goes to Milwaukee so we have a chance on getting him in a few years. If he goes to philly or another huge sports city in the states he will never return. Our great Canadian hero Gretzky , where is he right now. Sad but true.

Back in 1996 or whatever, Cliff Fletcher went to Stavro to get his approval to sign Gretzky for about $3M per season, so the Great One could finish his career on the team he grew up idolizing. Stavro was hurting for cash at the time, and word is he said no because "how many extra seats will be filled by having Gretzky on this team?"

So he instead went to the Rangers for more than double the salary. The greatest hockey player there will ever be was willing to take a home town discount to play for Toronto, and they said no for financial reasons. I believe THIS is the curse that continues to hang around the Maple Leafs to this day. The only cure - get Gretzky in the front office somehow.


You're f$%$kin kidding me...nice to know he would've played here.
