@ TOR: Opponent Game Thread Highlights
Today’s Opponent Game Thread host: Raptors HQ.
I really like these guys. They’re as cool as the Raptors’ TV announcers, who are the best in the biz in my opinion.
Curious to see how Bargs does tonight
He should have an advantage of the Jazz’ less-mobile bigs and has played better minus Lowry.
by Adam Francis on Nov 12, 2012 6:55 PM ESTyep he gets a break with favors on the 2nd unit
by Tim Gagan on Nov 12, 2012 6:59 PM ESTAlec Burks
Falling out of Utah’s rotation… maybe the Raptors could go after him?
by BP. on Nov 12, 2012 7:00 PM ESTWould love that.
by Adam Francis on Nov 12, 2012 7:00 PM ESTreally fear Al Jefferson is going to rape our front-line. Jonas, Amir and Andrea would all struggle guarding him I’m afraid.

by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 7:20 PM ESTgood game good game
unfortunately 2nd unit will have to play sooner or later
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 7:20 PM EST
Favors
could grab every rebound tonight. I mean EVERY single reb
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 7:30 PM ESTWas just thinking that.
by Adam Francis on Nov 12, 2012 7:33 PM ESTKleiza
Looks good, don’t fall in love with the jumper.
by y2v on Nov 12, 2012 7:48 PM ESThave you met Kleiza?
He has already fallen in love with that jumper, and cheated on it with another jumper.
by Shalax23 on Nov 12, 2012 7:50 PM ESTEvery time Klieza plays…
he plays hard and he plays well..why is he not in our rotation?
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 7:54 PM ESTbecause he doesn’t always play well?
by Shalax23 on Nov 12, 2012 7:55 PM ESTKleiza
on fire
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 7:56 PM EST
DAMN! Heywood on Demar
that’s what you get when you dont go up strong with his athletic abilities
by teedotaj on Nov 12, 2012 8:03 PM ESTheyward..
by teedotaj on Nov 12, 2012 8:03 PM ESThayward…
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 8:04 PM ESTHayward with a capital H
by teedotaj on Nov 12, 2012 8:05 PM ESTHayward
He’s really good, feel like his D is underrated because he’s white.
by y2v on Nov 12, 2012 8:03 PM ESTHalftime Thoughts
You know something, that wasn’t too bad!
Not much D going on as both clubs are shooting over 50%, but solid effort by the Raps, and good execution on O. Doesn’t hurt that Bargs and Kleiza (17 points) have it going so far, and guys like DeRozan and Valanciunas are making solid contributions.
by Adam Francis on Nov 12, 2012 8:07 PM ESTKleiza has 17!?
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 8:08 PM ESTFavors Kanter
Really tough matchup for us downlow
by y2v on Nov 12, 2012 8:55 PM ESTman Favors is a problem…
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:12 PM ESTLove watching him play.
by Adam Francis on Nov 12, 2012 9:13 PM EST
AL JEFFERSON?!
by sickflow on Nov 12, 2012 9:25 PM ESTWe got 2.2 to win it
by y2v on Nov 12, 2012 9:25 PM ESTtypical Al Jefferson three
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 9:25 PM ESTLolz
by y2v on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM ESTGood thing they had him out there instead of Hayward
by y2v on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM EST2nd three of his career
by Shalax23 on Nov 12, 2012 9:25 PM ESTnot even kidding.
That is the second three pointer of his career
by Shalax23 on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM ESTfk..
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM ESTof all the shooters, in all the arenas around the world… the Raps run into an Al Jefferson clutch 3.
by Not so Friendly Stranger on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM ESTBIG AL ALWAYS GETS US!
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM ESTWHAT THE HELL
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM ESTThat man is the Raptor Killer.
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM ESTMe thinks its almost time for some manly tears.
by yellowalman on Nov 12, 2012 9:26 PM ESTAnd OT…
by Adam Francis on Nov 12, 2012 9:28 PM EST
the basketball gods hate us
by xUnKnOwNx on Nov 12, 2012 9:29 PM ESTAl Jefferson and Paul Milsap both make 3’s …
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:37 PM ESTit is obvious
we can’t win this one
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 9:38 PM ESTnow
let’s see the Derrick Favors three
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 9:43 PM ESTDont even go there……
by yellowalman on Nov 12, 2012 9:44 PM ESTdont allow another al jefferson 3 folks
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:44 PM ESTDamn it.
by lsheiner on Nov 12, 2012 9:45 PM ESTLooks like another double overtime. Ugh.
by sickflow on Nov 12, 2012 9:45 PM ESTBig Al
is so good in low post
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 9:46 PM ESTbaffles me
that hayward goes in only as a defensive specialist for Utah…
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 9:52 PM EST
Oh my lord, Millsap again
by Adam Francis on Nov 12, 2012 9:55 PM ESTthats how u know this is not our game lol
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:55 PM ESTMilsap is killing us with 3’s?!
by rainmann on Nov 12, 2012 9:55 PM ESTEvery single Utah starter has at least one 3 ball. When’s the last time that’s happened in a game?
by BP. on Nov 12, 2012 9:57 PM ESTYEAHHHHHHH
I LOVE YOU JOHN LUCAS

by Jenge on Nov 12, 2012 10:20 PM ESTCan’t believe we lost this one.
by sickflow on Nov 12, 2012 10:19 PM ESTwas very clear to me after big Al’s three actually
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 10:21 PM ESTThe rolling around the rim just added insult to injury.
by sickflow on Nov 12, 2012 10:22 PM ESTthought that only happened in bad basketball movies
by TFC Academy on Nov 12, 2012 10:23 PM EST
nice to see hayward getting some recognition instead of the usual dribble on him looking 12 years old. although, i really like how no one realizes he’s the defender that he is. it makes it so much sweeter when he swats a shot.
ughhh… i meant drivel. too much basketball on the mind!
That’s one of my favorite things about him, the way he sneaks up on opponents who have no idea he can play the way he can.
It’s nice to read a thread where the fans aren’t just ripping our players. This one is respectful and it’s a breath of fresh air!
Agreed. It’s such a nice change of pace. These fans are great.
