Title: Toronto Raptors...
Post by: Lunatic on October 28, 2009, 11:56:23 PM
PG..Calderon is one of the best in the league. He lead the league last year with the best assist to turnover ratio and shot 98% from the FT line..Jarret Jack is his backup, and would start on a lot of teams.
 
SG..rookie DeMarcus DeRozan is starting..raw but lots of potential..a bit under sized but he's young, a rook..attacks the basket hard (they call him a young VC) and made an insane block on Shaq tonight..he already shows that energy and made a few hustle plays tonight. I think he'll develop. Bellinelli is such an awesome shooter and a great pickup, fits very well on this team. What shocked me tonight was when he faked the shot, put the ball on the floor, drove, and slammed it down  :o  didn't know he had that ability. Jack will get time here too.

SF..Turkoglu was an awesome signing. Clutch, loves to play in the 4th Q and he'll fit well. His backup doesn't matter but it's Antoine Wright, a solid defensive player who can shoot the ball well too.

PF/C..Chris Bosh put on 20-30 pounds of muscle in the off season and looks more aggressive and dominate in the paint, without losing his speed or shot..Andrea Bargnani was awesome tonight and had a great, slept on year last year..he's gonna be sick this year..Reggie Evans is a heck of a rebounder off the bench, he gives us that aggressive big man energy and is a BEAST on the rebounds..Rasho Nesterovic is back and he's a solid backup C..Amir Johnson is a young guy who played well in Detroit..

I feel this is our most complete, deepest team ever. Don't count us out of the East.. 8)

I thought the Raptors were gonna be good last year but they underachieved big time..finally looks like they're putting shit together, getting Turkoglu helps a lot too. They're not on the level of Boston/Orlando but definitely a playoff team.

My dad grew up there. On Shaw Street, just off Harbor. I even took a night school course at Central Tech years ago, and was at Lee's Palace for a concert a couple weeks back. If pops never moved we could have been close neighbors.

You ever wanna hit up Scarborough, let me know. I'll show you around, not that there's much to see.

Small world. I did a bit of high school ten seconds from your house and you did high school ten seconds what could have been my house if my dad stayed. Place was fucked up though. My aunt picked out the house when they were young; 666 Shaw St. And she's not a very nice woman.

It's true, no joke. Her and my Dad haven't spoken on good terms in over 10 years. And he always says he should have realized what she was when she came home one day with a big smile on her face about the great house she found on Shaw street. How is it that they skip #13 but #666 stays put.

Yeah? The area has always been so good minus the trouble Central Tech always caused (last 10 years - horrible school) :-X  ... Although my school was ghetto as fuck, ranked one of the worst in Canada :-\
