Since the Raptors expended the minimal amount of effort required last night - in other words, they put their uniforms on - I’m going to honor their commitment to suckiness by expending minimal efforts in my recap.

No transition D… Standing around under the glass, waiting for rebounds… Settling for jumpers… Complaining about calls… going to rusty O’Neal way too often… giving Bosh the ball too far on the perimeter… not bothering to get Kapono involved, when you clearly need threes to stay in the game… not bothering to read a scouting report on Billups (if you’ve ever actually watched a single game in which he’s played, you might notice the pull-up three in transition is his favourite shot. So you might wanna, you know, think about picking him up OUTSIDE the three point line? Sigh).

What a joke. If, when Sam Mitchell gets fired, you need to show someone a reason why, show them last night’s game. I have never seen a “playoff team” come out so woefully unprepared to play as that. I just don’t understand how a team of “professionals” can lose by 40 points.

It was an embarassment - so much so that I couldn’t even wear my Raptors toque to work today and now my ears are cold and yeah, I blame Sam Mitchell and Bryan Colangelo for that too. Thanks guys.
