    They've got the rest of this season to shape up then I'm all for breaking up the nucleus. Games like last night's are not acceptable, i don't know who the leaders are on this team but it's time for some ball movement on offense and some hard nosed defense and overall teamwork. If the Raptors would have had Vince and the Nuggets didn't suck we'd be 0-4. The only positive this season is Jauquin Hawkins and he won't win any games for us.

    If we don't make the playoffs this season, then NOBODY is safe. We're lucky to be 2-2.

    What about:

    Cato

    Francis

    EG - last night

    Mobley

    2-2 (We could have lost to the Cavs last night):p

    We have two players back - two to go

    :D :D :D :D

    You expect more out of Francis?

    Are you on crack?

    one assist shy of a triple double, and it's not acceptable.

    Good God you people suck.

    Triple Doubles don't win ball games

    Neither did Matt Maloney.

    Please realize what we have here, fellas.

    Or would you rather see Cato do a dreamshake 25 times a game?

    Expect all you want... :rolleyes:

    Griifin broke out...

    More from Steve?

    Cato continues to play well.

    We finally get Rice going

    Cat played well

    Mooch played well

    Seattle is the hottest team in the league, they shot 77% in the third quarter, and Payton had a career night. :rolleyes:

    Francis is playin fine!! I just wish he would trust his teammates more and get them more involved. He will learn though.

    <b>If the Raptors would have had Vince and the Nuggets didn't suck we'd be 0-4. </b>

    Oh give me a break. The offense is horrible, yet it scored 97 points, had 18 assist and Francis had 9 assist. The problem wasn't offense it was the defense. The defense has to improve, there isn't anything wrong with Francis and the offense is fine thus far. It's getting better, and better. But to say that without Vince Carter this team would be 0-4 is ridiculous because the Rockets pound the Raptors regularly even when they had Carter.

    No defense does, and if you looked at last night's game that is why the team lost. Not because of Francis, because of defense.

    If you expect more from Francis, then you've got some issues.
