Vasquez sucks lol. If he had a decent 3 pt. shot he'd be one of the best PG's in the league though. Guy has great court vision and is a decent defender but man he can't shoot.

Great W for the Raptors though. We shut down Love and Rubio so that's a good game. Pekovic went off on us in the first half but he quieted down in the second. Probably cause K-Mart started to heat up and they kept feeding him the rock.

Didn't catch the game last night but looks like Lowry did it again. Wow is he having some season. He's going to get paid by somebody, and hopefully it's us. He has to be a priority signing, the options are thin this summer and right now I wouldn't want anybody else running this team who is a free agent.

Huh? He's terrible defensively.

He said a guy LIKE John Wall. Not specifically John Wall. I think he meant a player of his calibre at the PG position.

To be honest, Lowry is playing at an MVP type of level right now. Right now, we have a guy who is playing like a top notch PG. The question with him is will he sustain this type of play when he gets his contract?

CBS airing a Kentucky, Duke and Kansas triple header today.

Wiggins vs. Smart should be an interesting matchup.

will it ever be possible for us to get a guy like john wall?

sure... tank

But do we really need a guy like that? Lowry is one of the best PGs in the league right now and that tank certainly didnt help Washington - 91-167 since they drafted Wall. They're pretty much the Edmonton of the NBA, they've had a top 5 pick for like 6 years in a row and they still suck

They've picked top 5 three times in the past 4 seasons. Prior to that, they made the playoffs 4 straight times. This year, they're back on track. A back court of Beal and Wall will be great.

Cleveland is more like Edmonton if anything.

What the hell happened here? I haven't followed the Raptors at all but I thought they were competing for Wiggins this year, not a playoff spot..

Two things happened:

a) The Rudy Gay trade made the Raptors a better team.
b) There are a lot of terrible teams this year, including the NBA's crown jewel franchises, Boston and LA

There's a reason why the East is nicknamed the "Leastern" conference this year and the Atlantic is being referred to with the moniker the "Titantic"

Raptors are playing in a very crappy conference right now, have no major injuries and taking advantage of teams trying to tank and good chemistry at the moment.

We are bad at rebounding, since hansborough's injury, we suck below the rim !!

How many offensive rebound we gave up, geez !!
