Every morning I can, I'll start your day off right with this choice selection of what's poppin' on the Intertubes. This... is the RaptorBlog Morning Shootaround. Dino Nation Blog gives a simple reason why Raptors fans should keep booing Vince Carter: "Because it works. Tracy McGrady loved when Rap fans booed him and performed on a higher level based on it. Vince lets fans get in his head and it has a effect in a bad way on his performance. So keep booing V.C. till he gives us a reason to stop." Ben Gordon has a six-year, $59 million offer on the table from the Bulls. If he doesn't want to accept the deal, his options would seem to be: sign a one-year qualifying offer of $6.4 million so he can be an unrestricted free agent in 2009 -- or join the exodus to Europe. Kings' rookie Jason Thompson calls out Marvin Williams for some reason. "I mean, you've got a guy like Marvin Williams, who comes out of North Carolina and wins the championship, coming off the bench and maybe averaging eight points. And he's a No. 2 pick (in 2005). I mean that's what's crazy to me." Chris Kaman talks about playing for Germany and says that he wears headphones on the team bus because it bugs him that they all speak German. Further evidence that something ain't quite right with that boy. Ball Don't Lie's Kelly Dwyer breaks down Team USA's 101-70 win over China. And finally, the RealGM Raptors board has a bizarre picture of Team Spain making "Chinese Eyes" at the camera. Nobody thought this might come off as a little bit inappropriate?
