Raptors are bad

As long as they only lose by 13 Second half

Pimike, where do you post your college football picks?

Wilforth, you are so correct. I can't believe how bad the Raptors are this year. I thought that they would be better with the signing of Jermaine O'Neal, but he has upset the chemistry of the team, going in and out of the lineup, just like he did in Indiana.

The Pistons are out of whack too. I guess that Iverson really is not the answer. They played much more like a unit with Chauncey.

The Clippers are horrid, and not worth the money. They are a shot in the dark. the spent a boatload of cash and still have no results. they will lose 60 games this year.

The Warriors have trouble with defense and when they get Montae Ellis back, they will have a logjam at the guard spot.

The Timberwolves out of all of those teams that you mentioned have the biggest upside, as they are young and are not expected to win anything anyway.

its early, but apparently outside of calderon, the raps dont have a guard worth a shit
it takes time to gel. i have seen many teams start badly and do fine. happens every year.
raps wil lturn it around i think.
the clips and wolves are garbage, the raps are not

I agree with ryanXL977. The Raptors need time to get things together. The team is constantly having to accommodate J.O back into the line up. Secondly, they just lost their coach whose been with them for four years. To make things worse, Triano is implementing a different playing style, a more fast-paced style into the Raptors' game plan. As long as the team can stay healthy, I think they'll finally start putting up some numbers in the win column.

Spot on......I am a raptors season ticket holder and couldnt agree more, the constant rotaion of Jermaine O'neal in and out of the side is causing all sorts of problems. Also defence continues to be another big problem and has been for the last three seasons - they cannot rebound for sh1t and until they solve that problem they will be nothing move than average side

chipper8888 · 12-07-08, 10:43 PM

They have also gone from feast to famine in that guard spot as last season they had caulderon and ford fighting over the position. Amitedly Caulderon was the right choice for the Raps but now they have no decent back up for him
