Looking forward to seeing Tyreke Evans in Toronto - as well as a good win for the Raps.
DeRozan and Phantom of the Opera are supposed to be back for the game, no?

Derozan is back.
BC is supposedly forcing Hedo to wear a mask.
Maybe he will demand a trade???

If my Israeli homeboy, OC18 is directly involved in handing the raps an L I will somewhat swallow it, but on this stretch losing to the Kings will be TERRIBLE.
The Raps usually own western conference teams in these early sunday afternoon games so I like our chances.

Have the Raptors put even 10% effort in on defense yet? Great ball movement on offense though

This is starting to smell more and more like a loss... not one guy on the Raps has any energy
Bwahaha, a 9-0 run in barely 80 seconds.

that bosh block was large, too bad zorro turned it over right after
i'm watching/listening to the game on the worst internet feed ever, which sucks
Antoine Wright has come pretty far in a couple of months, wasn't he benched for a week or so after he was critical of the coaching staff? Now, he gets crunch time minutes and is playing incredibly well.

it's so much better when there are guys in the lineup that aren't complete liabilities. the roster is so much different than the days when we had lamond murray... remember that guy?

Antoine Wright is good, but he's no replacement for Araujo!

Kings have some good young talent but when it was winning time the Raps turned it on & put the game out of reach. Bosh's block in the 4th was MASSIVE & his play late put the game in the bag for the Raps. A.Wright played well and his defense was needed as K.Martin came out in the 2nd half going right at DD & DD was unable to get the stops. Turk started very well & had a good overall game with the mask. The Raps team play/ball movement is impressive & continues to improve game after game...
Colts get the big win today over the Saints. P.Manning is MVP.

This appears to be the same misconception by a lot of Raptor fans. I can't remember the article I read, but the reason Wright was playing poorly earlier was because he was playing hurt. He then told the coaching staff to bench him and play the younger guys till he got back to full speed. Now that he's at 100% the coaching staff are playing him and he's producing. I really want to find that article to back up what I'm saying...

Love the fact they are winning but it seems to me this team has regressed defensively. I dont know if its just playing down to there opponent but the defence which had started to look alot better has been looking pretty bad. Hope it isnt serious. Good win
