    Did we have a chance of getting Lou, he was always solid and even better with the Raps now. Good for them, love that team!

    Lou with his best Jamal Crawford impersonation. He's really fun to watch.

    Lowry has slowly become a true leader of the Raptors team. Proud of him.

    I'd much rather see a championship in Toronto than in Cleveland.

    Almost no games missed by their rotation. A schedule nearly as easy as ours.

    Interesting...

    Amir Johnson and James Johnson have both missed games, actually. They are probably the team's 2 best defenders as well, so their absence would have been felt.


    I'm glad to see that Rox fans are still behind Kyle - dude has really been making an impact and been the team's MVP by far. The good thing is that most of the team is fairly young and has room to grow. Lowry is the oldest starters at 27 - so as long as health doesn't become a problem - this should be the beginning of a sustained run in the East for the Raptors.

    I didn't say 0 games. They both have missed 3 games. Their combined 6 games missed means less to their team than Dwight's 4 games have meant to us.

    Impressive start. Nice point differential. Easy schedule. Better injury luck than most.

    Just find it funny that some are so overly impressed with them while at the same time so skeptical of Houston.

    I'm starting to think that their lack of injuries isn't exactly a luck thing. They are always leading the league in least games missed. Toronto & Phoenix have great medical staff.
