Their All-Star is D'Angelo Russell. How can you forget DeMarre Carroll, ex-Raptor. Raptors playing Nets next Monday.

Wright is gone. Here's hoping the new guy McCaw will play more minutes. See what he can do just in case we need him in the playoff.
He's coming off a serious injury, that is why he is resting in back to back games.
The Greek Freak just sat out for knee tenderness too? Should Milwaukee consider not resigning him in the future? LOL
By the way, we win more often than not without Kawhi, but Milwaukee got killed without the Freak; against the Magic...not a bad team, but not a world beater either. Raps defense might be the tightest in the east and gets us a lot of wins. I watched Gasol move around on D last night, and block out on the boards. He's just very sound defensively. He passed the ball around well on offense and if that becomes contagious it could only helps us stay away from those times we just keep passing to Kawhi and watching. We'll be much better if we minimize that and Kawhi won't mind passing out of double teams if we score on those assists.
I wasn't sure about the trade at first but I'm coming around.

all it takes is one serious pull or tear and its the end of the year or a career. I'd be careful with both of these guys. If you'd rather sit out in the coliseum and point your thumb up or down on someones life, that's your choice.
Jeremy Lin will be a competent PG if he signed with the Raps. I like the move in case Lowry's back act up again during the playoffs.

I was at that the Valentines day massacre when Jeremy Lin led the Knicks to a crazy win over us at the Air Canada Centre. How they left him open in the last play of the game was beyond me.
I have no problem seeing him in a Raptors uniform for this run to the playoffs.

Love the Lin signing. Character guy with a high basketball IQ and will stay in his lane.
McLemore deal fell through. Was looking forward to seeing him in a Raptor uniform because of his 3 point shooting but his defense is nothing special compared to the other wings the Raps have.
