I was watching the Raptors-Sacramento game last night. I cannot believed the Raptors blew a big lead. For some reason, the Raptors still have this problem about the individuality. They have way too many jump shots while there is no rebounder nearby. I thought when they started doing that, they will end up losing the game. It's just so frustrating to watch them.
Evans played well last night with over 18 rebounds but on the other hand, Bargnani is way too soft rebounding and on his defense. It's funny to hear the announcer saying Raptors only went to the free throw 5 times in the 2nd half. Well, that's what happened when you don't go hard to the basket. It's tough to get a free throw chances when you constantly shooting jump shots. I am not saying they shouldn't go for the jump shot all the time, it's just that they have to choose their shot and not force them.
I really think the Raptors have the talent to make the playoff but they have to be smart.
