So.. Who thinks we'll beat the Hawks?

[Zainab]

I think TRex has dibs because we won, but we need these up like right after the last game ends. How are we supposed to get hyped and talk trash? Or listen to all the gamblers, or Zainab's Adventures in Bebesitting.

Maybe one of the mods should just make this the game thread.

Joey to the rescue!

I got a feeling they will win...and we all know I have a 100% accuracy rate on my predictions 32% of the time

[Cody73]

All this time I thought your references to "DMC" was about Cousins :|

Nope. Always been Carroll.... I'm a little too high on the guy sometimes, but he scares me every game we play against him.

[Chr1s1anL]

Magic number is 15. We have less than 15 turnovers we win this game.

[Bendit]

The Raptors turnover rate has been putrid lately....suspect too much of a load on Lowry.

Keep it in the 5 range and the team should be right there at game end. The Hawks on the other hand are great creating t/os.

Thats why they play the games. Looking forward to this one...should be a playoff atmosphere at the ACC.

Reminds me of when everyone assumed I was talking about Bosh when I said "CB4".

[Jangles]

I think the Hawks blow us out. 112-98. Not as close as the score suggests. Unless we somehow play like an nba team in the first Q, we will be playing from behind all game.

Well, I really want the guy here..... he's such a glove fit for us.... basically a younger version of JJ with a 3

[iblastoff]

i dont even care who wins at this point. we're making the playoffs regardless. i just want the total score to be over 207!!!

Joking aside, he would be a nice fit alongside DeRozan.

But as an unrestricted free agent, I wonder what his asking price will be.

why 15? why not 14 or 13 or 16?

Yeah, me too.. which is why I feel the Hawks window could shut this year. So many players off the record books for them.....

well, a lot of money are going on the total over.... that means we'll lose.

By the way, we're already dogs in the bookies.. people are betting hard on hawks tonight too. No surprise here.

My prediciton.

Raps up by 10 points at half.
Completely blow the lead in the 3rd, all tied up going into the 4th.
We go into full iso Lou mode for the 4th. If Lou is hot, we win, if he's not, we lose.

That was easy since that's how we've played the last 15 games or so.
