Raptors 120, Heat 113 – Box Thank God
for the Heat. Over the last two seasons, as
bad as things were for the Raptors, every time the Heat popped up on the schedule (home or away), the Raptors licked their lips and got themselves a win. Even though Wade and HO had their team 7-4 ...

Raps all Jacked up | Toronto Sun Up
front for the Raptors, it was the trio of
Bosh, Andrea Bargnani and Hedo Turkoglu carrying the load. Bosh had a team-high 29 to go with 12 rebounds while Bargnani chipped in with 24 and 10 boards. Turkoglu had 19 to go with eight assists. The Raps ...

The “the jumpstart my heart” edition. Banks –
my neighbours kid went out on Hallowe’en as a
basketball player and wore a Banks jersey. He came back with a piece of double bubble, a vanilla tootsie roll and a bruised ego. Bargnani – another double double. Did most of his heavy lifting in ...

It is easy to get overexcited, as Raptor
fans, about Chris Bosh’s performance through the first 12
games. There are reasons to be guarded, to be pessimistic, or to deem his success suspect thus far. At the same time, it’s easy, as Raptor fans, to let his success thus far underwhelm you, to ...

Real mixed bag | Toronto Sun There's better
cohesion on the team and the bench is beginning
to take shape. During the four-game trip, Marco Belinelli averaged 15.2 points, while Amir Johnson was active defensively and averaged 6.5 rebounds. Sonny Weems stepped up, giving Triano ...

5-7 after 12. If you had given me
that record on October 27th I would’ve gladly taken
it. 6-6 would’ve been just terrific but 5-7 is just a missed shot at the buzzer away from that, so I can be convinced that this is an acceptable record given the early schedule. The defense ...

Raptors 91, Jazz 104 – Box At least
it’s over. This killer road trip that everyone said
would be the first true test for the Raptors has finally run its course. After dropping two tough ones in Phoenix and Denver, the hope was that the ‘moral’ victories and lessons ...

Raptors running on empty | Toronto Sun The
game wasn't barely six minutes old when Triano called
two timeouts, which is all one needs to know on how poorly the Raptors came out of the gate. Utah scored the game's first eight points, made 10 of its first 14 shots from the ...

The “the jumpers, the jumpers, the jumpers ain’t
a-fallin’ edition. Banks – gettin’ paid. Bargnani – a
double double from out of nowhere. His night played out like a Where’s Waldo story. He’s there, then he’s gone. Brutal defensively and a bad shooting night. This back to back killed ...

If you want to catch-up on the game
tonight, check the uber pre-game thread . This week
in The Doctor Is In , I look at the *new* defensive schemes of the Triano regime and their effectiveness 10 games into the season. Newcomer Hedo Turkoglu and returning Raptor Jose Calderon have their ...

Too much Carmelo | Toronto Sun Bosh is
a lot of things, but he's not a ball-handler
and you simply can't give him the ball in the open court and ask him to create. He needs to play off people. His frustration boiled over with 7:05 left when he got called for a technical ...

Raptors 112, Nuggets 130 – Bo x Let’s
make an obvious statement: The Toronto Raptors just aren’t
in the same league as the Denver Nuggets. Even the homerest of all homers will concede this nugget of wisdom (pardon the pun). While it took some time for that sobering ...

The ‘*&$$!(*!’edition. Banks – does he even exist?
Bargnani – rough night. His shots seemed to be
either short or long. One of the rare nights this season that I audibly groaned when he hoisted a shot. Had a fantastic drive for a dunk in the second quarter and 2 nice blocks, but his ...

That was a killer game against the Suns.
Like tennis, this is a game of inches. Had
Hedo nailed that shot at the buzzer, the Raptors would have been 2-0 on this four game Western swing, 6-4 on the season, and heading into Denver on a three game winning streak. You can hardly blame this on ...

Winds of change | Toronto Sun "There are
just some little things that are keeping us from
making that step to become a better team,'' Turkoglu said. "We could have a better record, but we're 5-5." The glass, though, is half full. Reggie Evans remains ...
