Sammy Meatballs? Never Heard of Her
Since the month of January the RAPS have one win vs a team over 500 on the road. That was vs Boston Celts. I saw that game and Boston pissed the game away and the Raps got ver lucky to win that game as they were trailing most of it.
This RAPS team is a real joke. They say all the right things, but are really really soft in the playoffs. They are like the cousins of the Houston Rockets in the west. I know this team pretty good and can tell you a few things about them.
Whiners- THey have a few whiners in Sam Mitchell and Tj FORD, these guys want to win, but are whiners, they are not team guys.
Softies- Bargagni was in the starting lineup, he cannot guard Turkoglu, pick and rolls vs Howard or do anything. He is a bust in the NBA. He is not the type of player that will win a game on the road for you in the NBA. He does not care about playoffs, its not in his blood.
- Nesterovich- he is way too slow for Howard, and old. He has a nice shot on Offense, but is also old and lacks any desire to win. He will not be a role model for the youngsters.
-Kapono- He cannot defend and will be abused--
Raps real problem- TJ FORD my friends, when he came back the RAPS went South. If anyone has played sports they understand why-- This was Calderone's team, he was doing well running the offense. NO NBA team has 2 point guards where they split time evenly? Does Utah, Spurs, SUns, Celts, and Pistons do that??
Raps BIg Problem- Weight, except for the fat Nesterovich they are all skinny players- Bosh has no bulk- Ford is skinny- Jamario Moon is a pencil- Calderone is skinny- Anthony Parker is a softie and has no strength, Bargagni is not strong either-
This lack of weight results in other teams slam dunking the ball over and over and over on them in games. A team like the Cavs and Pistons beat the Raps every time because their players are big strong players, Raps players are little panzie jump shooters. Bosh was soft also but is starting to drive more and get fouled a lot more now. BUt he still takes that long jumper a lot.
Raps D- This team cannot stop any good offenses- They did not win a game since Jan on teh road vs a 500 team shows me their D is very bad. They have no shut down defenders, and are terrible in the post.
THey thought Orlando would be a good matchup for them, I guess Orlando was better than the Pistons or the Cavs for them who own the Raps. However I looked at Orlando and am impressed with them. They played well near the end of the season and won games by big margins at home. Orlando can score more than the Raps, and IMO are playing very good ball at this point.
Raps come in limping and played like shit the last 2 months of the season.
This team always gets good beatings in the post season, and then states they will come back. REgular season they can come back , but in playoffs it is harder, and their EURO team does not have the heart to come back.
We will see a good performance out of BOSH and one other Raptor which is status Quo-
Sam MITCHELL- He is so dumb he puts Bargagni who he hates himself back in the starting lineup to try and defend Turkoglu,. and benches MOON. MOON was playing 28 a game and now is playing only 4 mins in game 1. This Raps team is not good, and is not good on the road, and plays no defense. THis line is only -6, which is extreme value.
Houston did not bounce back, because at this point in the season the better team wins the games. Unless Orlando is happy with a split at home, they will win this game tonight and cover.
Dwight Howard should get easy dunks all night long vs the Raps. If you have no D it is hard to cover a small line on the road vs a good home team.
The Raps start last game shows it all, they are not ready for playoffs and need to eradicate this mickey mouse roster they have. Vs the Nets a few years ago it was the same, they got blownout in game one , blowout in game two worse. People are thinking all teams that lost game 1 will win game 2 and bounce back as the lines are lower in game 2.
Some teams are capable of winning game 2, but the RAPS are not.
Also on the road I will take Orlando moneyline in game 3 and game 4 in Toronto to win, as they will get the split if not both.

he just played there but he is capable of showing up on the road, trust me. He's probably one of the few players i like on the squad.
