My reply was actually to Scott, not K Dizzle, but he has some valid points too.

@K Dizzle

Took the words right out of my mouth. Why didn’t anybody talk about the Raptors being AMAZING when they went 7-0 in the 2006 pre-season?

Can’t rely on those stats, Bosh and Hedo both just came back! They’re trying to get the new faces minutes starting guys like Sonny Weems. We’ll revisit this 10 games into the season though and hopefully by then we’ll see some toughness

after Reggie left the game last night you could feel the toughness get sucked out of the room

We’d be a better squad if we had all our ex-players back in their prime:

PG – Billups, Mark Jackson, Calderon, Stoudamire
SG – VC, Doug Christie
SF – T-Mac, Hedo, Marion, Jalen Rose,
PF – Bosh, Antonio Davis
C – Hakeem, Camby, JO

@ Big Sia – ….and if you wanna be down with the Raps, then fuck you too.

I’m from southern Ontario. I’ve been a Raps fan since word first came down that Toronto was getting an NBA team. Since then, it’s been downhill. “Raptors” sucks as a name, we’ve had crappy GMS until this point, we’ve had more draft busts than successes and US-born players tend to not want to be here.

I’m hoping Colangelo can turn shit around, but it’s off to a rough start. I guess you’ve got to de-construct before building it back up again. I’m not sure what question they’re asking themselves, but Bargnani isn’t the answer. (Unless the question is “Do you know which 7-footer grabs the least rebounds per minute in the league”) They’re hoping for him to turn into Dirk, but that’s not happening….

I’m thinking 40-ish wins this year – better than last year, but iffy on making the play-offs. Here’s to hoping De Rozan runs away with ROY. He’s our only hope.

Wow, did someone force you to write an article?

Cuz this has the most recycled opinions I’ve read in a while.

Also some of the dumbest opinions. They have 9 new guys, and you expect them to be world beaters out of the PRESEASON gate? Your boy had a better article about them last week, and it looked like he did research for his, I can’t say the same about you. You read some stats. Good job pimpin. IF thats all it takes to become a writer at Dime, just… WOW.
