After a day for everyone to catch their
breath, we offer this a bit later that usual
but it felt good to sleep for a wee bit of extended time. - So what do we all make of Chris Bosh’s torrid start to the season? The numbers, as we showed in ...

Okay, this is it. The last middle-of-the-night (well,
Eastern time, at least) posting for a little while.
I’m going to be home eventually today and back on some sort of normal schedule like I used to keep so things will be as they were starting ...

The last missive from the road -- for now
All ready to wind up this trip?
You've seen the roster news, right? No Wright, Turkoglu plays and no Okur.
Have fun

Let’s get this out there a few minutes before we start the in-game blog.
The Raptors have flip-flopped injured players from one night ago: Hedo Turkoglu will be back in his usual spot in the starting lineup but the sore ankle that’s been bothering Antoine Wright has him back on the inactive ...

Okay, this’ll be the second-to-last stupidly early post-game
post, I hope because once we get back to
the East, I’ll get back on the usual schedule. Not much to say about that one last night, was there? Better team won and, look at the bright side, ...

Just when you thought the Return Of Pops was the big news of the night, here comes more. Just got out of the Raptors locker room and Hedo Turkoglu's sore hip is going to keep him out of this one; he took part in shootaround this morning and it looked like he'd be a go but things didn't pan out ...

The fans in Toronto have an old friend to cheer for again.
Pops Mensah-Bonsu, who was a hit during his 19-game stint with Toronto last season, has been claimed off waivers by the Raptors and -- get this! -- he'll be dressed for Tuesday's game in Denver. He’d been waived by the Houston Rockets ...

Okay, so it’s not the middle of the night when this is going up, we’re sort of back to the regular Eastern time schedule despite being out here in the mountains.
Told you the body clock was screwed up beyond belief. Now, let me gobble some Tylenol, get ready for the day and we’ll be back for ...

Great game, no? I know there’s nothing like
a moral victory in the big leagues but that
one had to feel good. What they did, they did well; they were one shot away from stealing a pretty big win. Oh, seriously, don’t get used to this stuff getting ...

There’s been a change in the injured Raptors for Sunday’s game in Phoenix.
Hedo Turkoglu must have spent some time at the local chapter of Lourdes because he’s a go for the game against the Suns, but Antoine Wright’s sore ankle will keep him out of the game.
At shootaround Sunday morning, ...
