-It ain't gonna be a pretty media day for the Raptors' tomorrow. Toronto was completely outplayed in the second quarter in every which way, and lost a winnable game in horrendous fashion.
-How horrendous?
-For starters, how about losing by THIRTY-FIVE to a team that shot only 45% from the field?
-How about allowing the Bobcats to score 116 points in the first place considering they were averaging about 85?
-And how about being out-rebounded, out-freethrowed and well...out everythinged?
-There really were no bright spots in this one as the team just didn't show any fight and this one was over by the time the third quarter was halfway through.
-Bosh struggled until the fourth quarter but led Toronto with 18 points and 14 rebounds. Charlotte was led by Gerald Wallace with 31 and 13, and Stephen Jackson with 23.
-Now Toronto faces the tough task of getting wins in Boston, and then home against Phoenix to close out the month...so let's just say a win tonight would have been nice...

Wow, what the heck happened
My fiancee Melissa watches the Raptors games with me. She usually spends the entire time telling me to “Settle down, it’s just a game”, “You shouldn’t get so mad” and “Stop yelling at the TV, they can’t hear you”. Well tonight, Melissa was yelling at the TV. Until tonight, the only basketball related conversation I could get out of her was “Boy, Anthony Parker and Chris Humphries are cute”. They played so poorly they actually got a rise out of a person who has next to no basketball IQ.
This game epitomizes the Raptors' season so far...
In that other teams/players have had their best games against us. It seems like there’s always an average/above average player from the opposing team who looks like an all-star against us. I sincerely hope that JT and the coaching staff change it up a bit whether it be line-ups or defensive schemes. Perhaps if some of the players know they’ll be benched if they’re not giving an effort then they’ll play some inspired basketball.
