LeBron

Nah not anymore he's too heavy and too old

[007]

That felt nice

[Demographic Shift]

Still don't see to many guys putting themselves in a position to try to take a charge on Lebron
He'd leave more than a few bloody chicklets ..

Hornets lost so now were 3 games up on the 3rd place Knicks, the superest team with a negative point differential.

Lol I don't blame anyone who doesn't want to take a charge against LeBron. He's so powerful w/ 3-7% body fat. #Muscle

Some physics thing about mass times velocity

Wee! Fun game. Never felt like it was really slipping away, more taking the foot off the pedal, like GSW did to us earlier in the season.

3-0. Solid win. As ever, Lowry + bench was awesome. Very fun game from Ross. JV looked particularly good early and rebounded well all night. Lowry was his usual self, DD put in a professional outing powering the team through that tough stretch when no one could score. Not much to say beyond another beat down against an inferior team. Good on you, boys.

On to the next.

Watching the Bucks keep playing Jason Terry minutes even though he was terrible gave me bad flashbacks to when Alan Anderson and John Salmons played far too many minutes here.

Game #25: Toronto Raptors 123 - Philadelphia 76ers 114

Probable Starters

Toronto
PG - Kyle Lowry
SG - DeMar DeRozan
SF - DeMarre Carroll
PF - Pascal Siakam
C - Jonas Valanciunas

Philadelphia
PG - Sergio Rodriguez (maybe, gastroenteritis)
SG - Gerald Henderson
SF - Robert Covington
PF - Ersan Ilyasova
C - Joel Embiid (maybe, elbow)

Performance tracker: odds of Raptors winning game = 79%

Fun facts:

The 76ers are still terrible. Don't let two big wins over the Pelicans and Pistons the past two games fool you. They're awful. They have the second worst net rating in the entire league, and they have had a far easier schedule than the Mavs, who are barely behind them.

That's all the fun facts needed, they really are that bad.

Philly Tankers!

Keep it up Dan!

Yeah i don't understand why Kidd keeps playing Terry. This is not 2011 anymore.

[KeonClark]

Great win, super fun. Can I just say...dwane takes waay too long to switch to "garbage time"..like up 23 with 5 min left at home vs Milwaukee, it's over. And yet kyle and demar stay in for awhile. Then even with 2 minutes left, why are Cory and Terrence playing? That is the point where you play men 10 thru 15, no rotation guys.

You flashbacked that far? Scola was a starter all last season. It's up to the GM to just not sign old useless vets if the coach can't control himself.

[KeonClark]

I predict we will score many more baskets than this opponent/victim.
