Raptors win home opener

[JohnnyFlame]

Man that was a great game. Bosh and Ford looked excellent and no less than seven Raptors were in double digits scoring. Flames brutal first period gave lots of time to watch the Raptors. Later on it was switch back and forth. Then after the Raptors had won flippin Noodles let's in this pathetic goal to ruin a double win night.

I switched from this game to the flames game. The Raptors in my mind are the most fun NBA team to watch. They have so much potential this year. And I love the Raptors announcer. GO RAPS!

I was flipping back and forth watching both games, however I watched more of the Raptors game because it was in HD.

Yep and you can actually watch Raptors games where the dumb bozo Flames owners have so few games on TV it's pathetic. Wait -- I change my mind -- that is probably a blessing!!!!!

Anybody watch the end of the game against Philly? Bosh with a fantastic play play in the paint to give Toronto a lead, and then after the 76ers come back to tie it, Bosh gets the ball on a broken play and launches a three with six seconds left. It's beyond me why the NBA isn't marketing him like they do Anthony, Wade and James.

Well that three pointer is something he has worked on to improve and he has done a good job. I think why he isn't marketed is the team has stunk. But they keep this up and there are going to be a lot of kudo's/attention coming their way. First they are very entertaining --that's just a HUGE plus. Can this team make the playoffs? I was just hoping that the group would be entertaining and show a whole lot of promise for next year. But so far and yeah it's way too early they look like a playoff team.

Yeah, all I can say is WOW for that game. Entertaining as heck, I thought the raps might run away with it in the beginning, but once philly brought it close it was going back and forth right until that 3 pointer.

Bosh didn't even hit a 3 point shot all of last season.

Yeah I can see why he worked on it. It makes him all that more dangerous --with his quickness he can blow by guys as they run out to cover him at the 3pt. line. He adds another weapon to his arsenal. Plus with the supporting cast all tossing in 10+ a game the other's teams defense can't concentrate on him like last year.
