    Easy night for Harden. Not offensively, but defensively. Parsons can guard Derozan while Harden gets Pietrus. Pietrus has never been a volume scorer or a shot creator and he's well past his prime. Harden will practically be able to play safety.

    Patterson needs to box Davis out. When Kleiza comes into the game, Parsons can shut him down too. God, I love Parsons. Play lots of pick and roll and let's get this over with by the end of three quarters.

    Maybe this will be a good game to start Toney Douglas? If it works out then the coaches will look like the genius they think they are. If it doesn't then Lin will still be rested for the Monday game at MSG.

    harden goes for 26pts
    Ox strong has another stellar perfomance
    Lin gets benched after the 1st for having 9 assists

    we win huge 110 to 80, looks like back to the lap top

    Trapish game. We haven't fared that well in Toronto for whatever reason lately.

    I wonder if McHale will ask Lowry how his ass tastes.

    Calderon is a solid, albeit unexciting, player, but I've always felt there's something about his face that makes it eminently punchable.

    Yikes.

    I see this as a "trap" game.

    We should win this one, but as the youngest team in the league, it wouldn't surprise me if we played down to the competition.

    The Raptors suck based on their record, but they are talented individually. Derozan could easily eat up Jeremy.

    I hope we take them seriously, regardless of their abysmal start.
