Raptors Abroad

That's right, 100 episodes of Raptors Aboard and LeBreakdown. My Raptors rise to the occassion (I'm sure my 100th was big motivation for them) and use Jonas and a well timed 4th Q run the go 10 games over .500. Boo and ya.

Kind of scratching my head over here. LBJ with his 5th straight unimpressive game. Not only is Lebron not playing up to his level, but the Heat are losing to Eastern Conference teams that my Raptors would like to see lose. Somehow a big night from Paul Pierce was enough to wipe out big nights from both DWade and Chris Bosh. Weird. LeScale: 5.5

The Pistons are a team I just don't get. So much talent, but aren't putting together enough good play for wins. This game felt like a true Raptor win, with big contributions from players that came to the squad via the draft. It just feel so sweet to see Demar, Jonas, and TRoss continue to take steps. 

The King returns! Finally a performance worthy of LBJ. DWade showed why he has the most rings of any current Heat player. He was unstoppable in the closing minutes. It's actually a bit rude he doesn't get more run in this podcast. 

Ouchy ouch ouch. The Raps fall to the Nets in Brooklyn. I call the last painful 3 minutes as I saw it, and it was no fun. Booooo. PDub with the dagger. 

Lowry with a triple-double and the Raps are 9 games over .500!!! A solid win for the Raptors, and I'm really starting to believe. We are actually going to be watching Toronto Raptors playoff games in 2014! Really can't say I expected that at the start of the season. 

Double whammy. LBJ puts up a third straight stinker and the Bulls get closer to the Raptors for the #3 spot in the East. LeScale: 3! 

The Raptors got some payback after losing the first game after the Gay trade. I don't know how they feel in SoCal, but I'm pretty happy with what we got out of that deal. Great game from Jonas against a very skilled big in Demarcus Cousins, and PDub founds the range from 3 again. 

Another LeBomb from LeBron. A very tough outing for Miami and a clinic put on by the Spurs. Finals rematch tied at 1-1. LeBron fans might want to skip this one. 

61 points is a tough act to follow, even for King James. A solid game for mere mortals, a 6.5 on LeScale for LBJ. The Rockets are a fun team to watch BTW.
