March 20, 2010

TV:  TSN2 - 7:30 PM EST

The Raps were thrown under the bus last night by fans and media alike. After being booed out of the ACC a trip to New Jersey seems to be just what the doctor ordered. 

Go RAPS!

Yes indeed…although expecting a Raps beatdown so excited about that.

Try the usual suspects, justin.tv and adht.net. Not sure though.

This could be interesting....

the Raps have been folding a lot lately and the Nets are a team that needs to believe to have a chance.

Starting lineup

Still blows my mind that switching Jack for Jose was a difference maker in the minds of the Raps coaches.

Getting desperate...

when they have to sell the fan base because everything else is going sour

Man

Finding it hard to find topics to discuss tonight. Bad effort so far by the Raps, great college ball on, Saturday night, and it’s the Nets.

There's a 5 point swing...

the block and then the 3

Unbelievable

Kansas goes down in the second round….and takes my bracket with them.

You...

and half the nation. WHat a historic loss.

16 Points Already for Harris

Same issues over and over for TO

If they lose this game

It will be interesting to see what happens. Could have a full-scale revolt on our hands.

Quandry

At what point as a Raptors fan do you start rooting for the Bulls? If you’re convinced Bosh is leaving, then aren’t you hoping for a draft pick?

Adam Francis - Publisher - RaptorsHQ.com

by Adam Francis on Mar 20, 2010 8:46 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

I was just thinking that. Maybe it’s better to have a draft pick than be Lebron-bait.

by benjibopper on Mar 20, 2010 8:49 PM EDT up reply actions  

Being the 8th team....

and getting swept….or not making the playoffs won’t mean a lick to CB4. I honestly believe they needed to get the 5th spot to convince him to stay.

I agree. And to answer Franchise’s question: After tonight if they lose.

by Mistafitz on Mar 20, 2010 8:56 PM EDT up reply actions  

or pull the upset and get to the second round, regardless of seed.

by benjibopper on Mar 20, 2010 8:52 PM EDT reply actions  

agreed

The Nets...

belive they can win this now.

This could be a breaking point.

I was so primed to rant out today, but I’ll save it for an article.

I'm not that interested tonight

Either they get a very-much-expected win or it’s a huge disappointment. The former isn’t very interesting and the latter I can do without.

I've been looking at the sky

very good second half

minus the technical fouls, they’re just silly

by elpikiman on Mar 20, 2010 9:41 PM EDT reply actions  

Bosh...

had to step up considering the efforts from others.

A blah W however.

This has been brutal to watch

Slightly glad Chris Bosh brought his A game offensively.

Thank goodness for Bosh

This would have been a lonnnnnng night had they lost.
