   I hope Ricky Rubio is still around when the Raps make their selection at the 8th or 9th spot.

   Eric,

   Living in Victoria I don’t have access to the pre-game show. What did Bosh say about playing for Dallas?

   While most teams don’t even have a “big three”, the Raps seem incapable of gutting out big wins when any of Bosh, previously JO, or now Marion is out. You would hope that any of them left with Bargnami/Calderone could still put up some offense but it appears not.

   How many games (seasons) have we heard that this team is too soft and yet there they are backing away from any charge in the paint. No grit.

   Any maybe the worst of them is Kapono now. He seems to be taking over Jamario Moon’s role of forgetting you are the 4th option out there most of the time. Unless it’s swung to you for an open 3, you don’t jack it up cause you’re just not that good. For over ayear now, we hear that the Raps aren’t running plays for him. Either swing the ball to him in the clear at least 8-10 times a game (50% make is 12-15 points) or put him on the bench; he is too slow, not enough desire and a poor defender to make his role anything else.

   It wasn’t a bad game isolated overall, just too much of what we have already seen ad nauseum.

   Ricky Rubio is only an option if Jose is traded but if your going to trade Jose(which i strongly suggest) don’t you want to get a point guard that brings in alot more toughness and a attacking mentality.

   Question raptors/basketball fans.. IS THERE A TEAM IN THE LEAGUE WITH LESS TALENT IN THEIR STARTING BACK COURT THAN THE RAPTORS?

   *Wizards would have more if Gilbert was health

   Hello?

   Anyone there?

   Just looking for all of those Bryan is Our Saviour fans!

   Any of you guys still here?

   You know…the ones who claimed he would turn this team into a running machine, the talk of the town, the face of the new Euro-NBA?

   Hello?

   Joe…are for seriously real? You really want to see the Raptors go down don’t you?! We can get a better back-up or get someone better that can replace Calderon’s starting position. Neil… it’s damn true that we need NBA blood players. (Thug-type of players) that can define the real meaning of the Raptors. Not this European league crap. Gary…I agree that Kapono forgets his inside players and that Ukic does the same crap anytime someone @ the basket is open. Brento…I have a gift for you. If you have FACEBOOK, go to search and type in Bryan Colangelo’s name. There is a group topic called “COLANGELO MUST GO!!!” I’m sure you will enjoy that. Oh…and also include that good for nothing Maurizio Gherardini who is also responable for this too. The Raptors better get rid of this international-look garbage if they want an NBA ring. As for the draft, get guys from the NCAA level. And bring in Avery Johnson & Charles Oakley as coaches.

   P.S. TRADE BARGNANI!!!!
