I'd like to see Demar break out and get to the line a gazillion times tonight.. we all know he's capable.

Hence the frustration.

Boston are probably salvitating over this game. Watch, Garnett is going to be in full retard bark mode tonight.

Derozen guarding Ray Allen is going to be so, so infuriating.

I hate the celtics more than any team in the NBA. When does Ray not have a good game? Maybe against the really good teams. Watch the likes of Stiesma, KG and jermaine have a field day against us. P.Pierce will be usual smug self.

They seem to really lick their chops when they play the Raps. [I] think they see us as a bunch of Sally's and go into full bully mode. Be alright to see Magloire out there tonight causing havoc. Will probably pump the Celts up more but I say bring it anyways. I`m sick of seeing these guys push us around. Remember Matt Bonner getting into it with Garnett...good stuff!

I like DeRozan's play for the most part.. He's been going to the rim, he still kinda shies away from contact at the very end after going strong to the rim which is kinda annoying.. If you're going to go strong, take it all the way, don't back out at the last second. It's like playing a game of chicken in which he's always on the losing end. DeRozan had a nice rebound in the first though in which he pretty much jumped over Pierce I believe, it's how he should go after rebounds all the time.. When you have that kinda effortless hops, why wouldn't you.

[Ryan_1523]

There have been so many bad calls against the Raptors... Ugh. They're not shooting well but still, those calls don't help at all.

[mcHAPPY]

The only noteworthy play of this game:

Rondo goes back door for a wide open layup and Kleiza sends him to the floor hard. It never would have happened before this year - especially versus Boston.

Now if they could only start doing that to DeRozan in practice, maybe he wouldn't be such a pussy in the games. I'm losing faith and calling you out DeMar... remember what happened when I did this last year? Please make me look foolish again.

[mcHAPPY]

Hopefully DeMar is taking notes from Gary Forbes on how to get to the free throw line.

Raps lose and are on the longest losing streak in the league at 6 with games versus:

Portland (home)
LA Clippers (away)
Phoenix (away)
Utah (away)
Denver (away)

over the next 9 days.


There is a strong possibility the losing streak could reach double digits.

yaay! Top 3 pick still within our reach.

Demar is playing like sh*te. He is going to be shipped off if he keeps playing like that. Maybe that's what he wants.

[Balls of Steel]

You forgot to add Barbosa as well. I mean, he's not a free throw machine but he penetrates. Demar is very clueless IMO (like deer caught in a headlight). Allen shut him down. Yes, Father Time, He Got Game, shut him down. As far as his handles are concerned, non-existent. "Yesterday's Bargnani" needs to wake up.

when you dribble like a 5 year old girl anyone can guard you
