I like the Pacers retro jerseys. Other than that i'm not a fan of most of them.

I think Lakers will trade Pau Gasol by or at the deadline. I kind of feel like when he was made part of the CP# trade that was denied it showed that he could be available. If the Lakers are going to get Dwight he's most likely going to be part of the trade, but even if they don't get dwight I see them trading him.

West: The Warriors have been bad as of late, but depending on how long Curry is out for, I could still see them making the playoffs. East: Through the first six games of the season, the Raptors looked like they could really make a push for a playoffs spot. Over the past two, they have been blown out by New Jersey and Philly. It's still a little bit two early to tell which team is the team that they will be throughout the season, but I don't see them winning enough games to make a playoff push. It might end up being the Bobcats?

Oops, sorry I thought this was the thread for the Sixers game. I watched the Nets game and it was pretty brutal.

Maybe this is the guy the Raptors need? I haven't watched much of him play or read much about him but if he's more of a sure thing then Drummond then I want him.

Where in Canada is he from?

I was glad to join. I usually just talk about Raptors related things on HFboards which is a hockey forum. They have one thread for raptors news, game talk, etc, but i'd much rather talk about the raps in a basketball forum. Hopefully we can get more fans to join the forum, because by the looks of it i'm part of a select few Raptors fans on the website.

I didn't watch the game last night because the Leafs were playing, and by the looks of it, it's a good thing I didn't watch. Ford, assuming you watched the game, what would you say went wrong with the offense last night?

I think Drummond should be our man if we can get a top 2 pick. If not I do like Myck Kabongo, but he's more like a mid-first rounder which i think we'll have a better pick than that.

Year You Became a Fan: I've been a fan since 06' or so, because i'm from Southern Ontario but didn't become an avid fan until mid way through last season (10-11) Why You Became a Fan: To be honest, I didn't really become a huge basketball fan until I played the video game NBA 2K11, then I started watching more basketball games every once and awhile. Now I watch every Raptors game unless the Leafs are playing on the same night Favorite Raptors Player, All-Time: I used to like Vince Carter. New favourite player is Demar Derozan though Favorite Raptors Coach, All-Time: Well, haven't watched enough to judge but so far I like Dwayne Casey a lot more then Triano Favorite Raptors Moment: Basically every Demar Derozan highlight real dunk Amount of Raptors Games Attended: 0 as of right now, though i'm debating on buying a few tickets for this year, or just waiting until next year w/ Valancuinas and this years first rounder.

I can't wait to see this guy in the NBA next year. A big centre who can drain his FT's is a rare thing
