YouTube of the Day: Jason Kapono 'defeats' science!
Bobcat Bonfire found this 4/13/2008 on sports.yahoo.com [flag]
NBA science tells us there must be at least 0.3 seconds left on the game clock for a team to successfully get off a jump shot. (Yes, the Trent Tucker rule .) If there's less time on the clock, you can only score on a tip or alley-oop. (Unless, of course, you're playing in Atlanta . HIYO!) Well, guess what? Jason Kapono laughs in the face of science! Observe: Impressive. But the LA Times ... [link]

Buzzer Beaters - 04/20
Published 4/20/2008 by Ryan at Hoops Addict
... * Near the end of the season Raptors fans were whipped into a fury when a last second tip-in by T.J. Ford was waived off because the referees felt there wasn’t enough time on the clock. While the Raptors front office elected not to appeal to the NBA about the call, Raptors forward Jason Kapono hit YouTube and created a video which shows a player can clearly get off a shot in under 2 seconds. Ahh, the genius of YouTube… ...

Jason Kapono Pulls A Chuck Woolery

MrThell posted 4/11/2008 from www.thebasketballjones.net

I pulled a Bill Simmons in posting this. I felt like getting Raptor fans all riled up that Jason Kapono can get a shot off (a made one!) in .22, while T.J. Ford can’t get a tip in .5. I love at the end how Jordan Farmar tries to take some credit for the pass, but Kapono wants all the thunder. This has all he’s got Jordan, let him have it.

Back for Seconds, Thirds and Fourths

Some things don’t happen very often. Total eclipses, Haley’s comet, a Knicks win. So that’s why when something extraordinary happens, you have to take notice. Tonight, the Raptors stepped up and played a solid game, playing like a team that just wanted it more than the other team they were playing. But that’s not the part that was so abnormal. No, that came as the Raptors got their asses ...

Post-Seasons Reasons

RaptorsForum posted 4/15/2008 from ballhype.com

So. Is there any reason to believe in this team (outside of the local impulse to scream about how awesome it is that the Raps are in the playoffs again) will make a mark beyond a trace come this weekend? It seems sour. Bittersweet I guess, but outside of the so-so play in November and December, we haven’t been able to put together a run at all this season, so for many reasons it would ...
