Toronto Raptors 89 Los Angeles Lakers 112

32-13 in the 4th quarter is what won that game. Well not only that, but we were in the game for the first 3 quarters. In a sick way I enjoyed that game last night. Underneath some Raptors love and Canadian pride there is a soft spot for the Los Angeles Lakers. So watching them have their way with us, isn't too hard. Its become expected now, ever since that day.

SWEET, eh? Anyways I watched the Game on the P2P site, only to find out that they aired it on RaptorsTV. My poor Laptop. So I said some things yesterday about some players, and they must of read what I said. First, Mr. Parker. Love that guy, really do. He goes 6-7 in 17 mins. Nothing else though. But that didn't stop The Commentators from gushing on him. Actually they wouldn't stop going on about J.O and Bosh. Is that all our team is about? Actually yah.

Hassan Adams is a smart man. Make evey think he's worthless, but then comes and scores 14 points in 22 minutes. But this is Preseason, he'll jus revert back to his old self on tuesday.

Some Mentionable stats:

• The lakers got 26 points off our 18 turnovers
• The lakers had 14 steals!!
• Surprisingly 12 Offensive Rebounds, but only 35 rebounds in total compared to the Lakers 50
• we shot 42.1% from the field, 45.5% behind the arc and a measly 60% at the line

I have to mention that at some points the we played some good defense but the Lakers would get some ridicuulous shot in, and that would hide the good defense we were playing for 20 before that. I thought the starters wouldn't play more then 20 mintues, but I'm not a coach and I don't know what best for these guys, so BOsh ended up playing 34 on the second night of a back-to-back, in the preseason.

The Section for Our Swingmen
Only AP showed up for work. Even thought it was for 17 minutes. Joey had one of his 'meh' games. Atleast he went to the line. Jamario, the man who is 'fighting' for his starting spot, went 0-8, in 14 mintues of nothingness. Grabbed 4 boards. Only shots JK made were from behind the arc. The commentators had fun making jokes about his one talent. Which made me twitch. When he was at the line they suggested he take his freethrow shots from the 3-point line. So Roko Ukic is Shooting Guard now (says ESPN), But i got a specialplace for him. Hassan was the only bright spot.

The Section for the battle of the PGs (Roko vs Willie)
2 minutes to 20 minutes is all I need to say. Though Roko impress much in 20 minutes. I think he could done better, maybe Kobe scared him.

Last thought
We weill never beat the Lakers this year =]
