Bah. How many teams win when their point guard is their leading scorer? Not many.
TJ can always get his shot off. Big deal. He's playing point, not the 2.
Garbage game. I wish I turned to the Colts-Pats game sooner. |

Watched the whole game, and I gotta say the first 3 1/2 quarters were downright painful. Bosh and Bargnani were something like 2/15 at one point. Brutal.
Glad you had fun tho. The ending was def exciting. |

yeh that was an unfortunate ending, i was on the edge of my seat in the stadium. very sloppy play the first half, from both teams.
Boston certainly are getting what they paid for in KG. Solid performer. If he gets injured throughout the season they'll be in trouble. |

I can't believe it got so close at the end!!
Yeah Bosh and Bargnani played poorly that game. Perhaps it's because Bosh was intimidated by his idol KG. |

One team will win by 2 points

I can't wait to lose my voice! |

It was a pretty decent game. But the Raps didn't deserve to win it.
Can't wait to see what the Raps do this year :D |

Way too early to be calling them the top team. |

Gotta give it to the Raps. Were having an off day by their standards and got their first lead of the game in OT. Attitude from this team improves by the minute.
Only complaint is if I were Sam, I would have put in Nesterovic/Garbajosa in the last 5-10 minutes of the 4th quarter. Bosh was getting alot of points in the key, but the shooting wasn't working. We could have won that game with guys like Garbo making screens and Nesterovic doing dirty work under the basket. Ah well, you can't have it all. |

so many times the Raptors looked like they had no idea what to do with offense. All the players stood outside the perimeter looking lost, sometimes bunching too close together allowing the Celtics to stand comfortably in their zone d. With KG on 5 fouls they should have gone down low and charged hard at him for his 6th. Never happened.
I know they like to focus on strong defense and at times they were lacking in that regard, but generally was good enough to stop a Celtics steamrolling, but there were lots of areas that could do with improvement on both ends of the floor. That game was theirs to take. The ref gave them many calls too, which ended up in opportunities lost.
Frustrating to watch you you know they had the ability to win but they didn't capitalize. |

but its so early in the season
those rankings will start to seem more legit around game 10-15 |
