Game #65: Houston Rockets 105 - Toronto Raptors 108

[Jclaw]

Paul is a family guy but any chance Harden is hanging out in White Vegas tonight?

[The Great One]

Chuck continues to praise the Raps, says they're going to the Finals and DeMar s the most underrated great player in the league. Kenny and Shaq continues to hate lol.

[MixxAOR]

Expectations for Raps keep climbing now. Finals or bust

The Ringer with yesterdays games, with our win the lead story . Also later the Ibaka "foul" that led to his ejection.

LOL This picture of Lowry is pure gold. Demar being all stoic is pretty dope too.

LOL Oh man, didn't even see your avi before making my last post ... well played sir.

I really want us to hit 1700 in our ELO score for the first time in franchise history. So tantalizingly close at 1698 right now.

Lol were just making new random ass goals now

We got to, since we missed out on the **"highest point differential ever in the month of February"** when we won by 13 and not 14 in the Magic game! Curse that guy who made that layup at the end!

[Deems]

I think we match up well against Houston, if healthy. With OG on Harden they can't exploit the ISO, and if they go PnR with Capela JV wouldn't have to worry about him doing anything else but roll. My only concern is how well Lowry is going to play against Paul, that's the matchup to watch.

[Rudy Bargnani]

Would totally be a raptors thing to beat down Houston and then lose badly to the Knicks and brooklyn next week. Why am I still so skeptical? Lol

[Scraptor]

How the hell did I get booked for dinner tonight. I need an implant that allows me to watch the game in my eyeballs while feigning interest about the lives of other people.

Lotta flu goin' round. Maybe best stay home to avoid infecting other people. Shows you care about them and their health.

Those are ghosts of Raptors past still embedded in your brain. Wearing a tinfoil hat for a few days has been known to cure these symptoms.

[LJ2]

Must win game

[3inthekeon]

Not sure how accurate, but it seems Houston opened as 1 1/2 point favourites, but the books I checked now have it up to 2 or 2 1/2.

[MixxAOR]

No OG and Delon is doubtful

[Jclaw]

While the Raps don't make an appearance in this weeks "Ten Things", Lowe does a good breakdown on how Houston doesn't (and does) focus on post-ups
