No Hedo tonight.
Ah well, from a defensive standpoint I guess Wright is the best person to be covering Melo. Here's hoping.

Wright might be a go after all tonight. We'll see at the shoot around this afternoon.

Just spoke to Wright will go in shootaround...will see how it feels this afternoon before making call on tonight.

My man-love for Melo is well known.
I'm hoping to see the Nuggets take us for granted and take their eye off the ball a bit. They are probably still high from pounding the Lakers the other night, so lets hope they take pity on us poor Canooks.

I guess an official welcome to Raptors Republic is in order. Welcome aboard Raptorman. Nice to see you again.
I still haven't read any updates on Hedo, so lets keep our fingers crossed that he's a go for tonight.
Great night of TV for me. Battle of Ontario with the Leafs & Sens and then Raps & Nuggets to finish off the night. Can't wait.
As soon as the Raptors Republic preview is available I'll let you guys know.

Hey Doc!!
I'm going to enjoy this one. Just because it was in Denver when the wheels officially fell off the Raptors wagon last year. Raps will show Denver fans that they are BACK!
Ditto. Love to see a close game that Hedo gets another try for the win....and makes it of course.

Let's go Raptors. They lost a nail bitter one with Suns, I would like to see Hedo trying again the last second attempt but with success!
Nice to see you insight.
I'm just hoping that Hedo didn't push himself too much last night where he might not be able to go tomorrow night. We certainly need him against Melo although Hedo isn't known for his defensive prowess.

Well, considering I think Denver is a better overall team than the Suns are, I think we'll be in pretty tough tomorrow night in Denver. If Hedo isn't 100% healthy and playing, then covering Melo could pose a problem all night long. And we might not like to outcome either.
On a good note, it will also be the return of Joey Graham. Well, not exactly seeing how the game's in Denver, but this will be Joey's first chance to redeem himself against his old team.
