Raptors ugly win last night

[Miklos]

Even though the Raptors come home from this short road trip with a pair of wins, the long-term effects could be devastating.Similar efforts against either Utah on Wednesday or the Nuggets on Friday could produce the kind of lopsided defeats that send them spiralling right out of the playoff hunt.

Hi Miklos....as a Raptor season ticket holder since Day 1, here's my 2 cents (CDN). I originally wrote this for another site but it applies to your post

1)The team is as soft as a baby's bottom.

2) This team has too many guys happy to pick up a cheque and live in Toronto. Wright was right when he called out the Euros.

3)Triano has to go...his end of game strategy is horrible. His refusal to change rotations has cost the team 3 or 4 games this season. His inability to get the right match-ups on the floor is obvious on most nights. To his credit he has hidden Calderone's inability to defend well in a 2-3 match up zone. Wright and Weems have not had enough minutes....slow Europeans get the minutes instead. DeRozan gets schooled defensively and still sees the floor. He is a puppet to the GM Colangelo.

4) The cancer that is Hedo Turkoglu: 5 years @10 million a year! He is not in game shape...He will not defend. He does not care. Note to GM Colangelo--your signing of Jason Kapono raised eyebrows....your defense of this signing of Turkoglu confirms you are the lucky recipient of the "I was there when Steve Nash was", lifetime achievement award.

Hey Colangelo: Turkoglu scored in last years playoffs because he was covered like a 4th option should be covered. You do not pay 4th options 50 million dollars.

Bosh leaves at the end of the year and the Raps have Bargnani, Calderone and Turkoglu contracts up the yingyang.......they are toast!

They are destined to be the Clippers of the East!

So true what you say----I believe they are considering moving DeRozen
out of the starting lineup for Wright,but no decisions have been made yet.
Do you think it is imminent as the playoffs approach that this will happen?

Def agree with you on some points..turkoglu sucks, calderon does not play D and too many euros..where's oakley?

but clippers of the east...lets not get carried away.

Bosh stays.
