Have American fans taken heed of the Raptors' turnaround?

i think they can make second round

and btw its Brian Colangelo, Jerry is his father

the raps played against the suns and mavericks this season, were winning for most of the game, and lost on both occasions by a half second buzzer beater

they are the real deal, and this is a team colangelo put together from scraps, next  year - CHAMPS

the raptors look like the real deal. the tj ford trade was brilliant and bosh is a beast. they could make it to the east finals, maybe even the nba finals.romocop33

They are in the same class as Washington and Cleveland in my opinion, not quite up there with Chicago, Detroit and a healthy Miami though... yet.UssjTrunks

Been following the Raptors b/c Chris Bosh played high school ball in my hometown. Glad to see him become an All-Star and Olympian. They are exciting to watch (during the rare times their games are broadcast down here). They also have a lot of nice side stories, like the continued strong play of TJ Ford, and the development of Barnagni. Any die-hard basketball fan, like myself, should have noticed the Raptor's strong play. In the weak East, there is no reason to not think that the Raptors could very well be a #2 seed. Upcoming trip to TX will bring them down to Earth a little but I think they will make a little run in the playoffs and next year will be even better.d12malu

I'm glad they are doing well. I don't think they will keep their division lead over the Nets but i say they will beat out the Heat for the 7th or 8th spot.TheDarkDisciple

Carter only whined as a Raptor cuz they sucked all the way yea i guess he the first player in sports history to complain bout his team:roll: Raptors are gonna choke and not win the Atlantic Dvision when RJ comes back there gonna go on a roll. Raptors winning going to the conference fnals...:lol: and Jays going all the way. They couldnt beat the Yankees and they stil have a crappy ass pitching staff so no.XxMa5icarxX

Anyone who quits their team, regardless of reason, is a little b****. You make a commitment (in this case signing a contract) you follow it through. Instead of doing what a superstar is supposed to do and lead their team (see: Steve Nash, Chris Bosh, Shaq, Gilbert Arenas and many others) Carter decided he didn't have to try. I hope he resigns with NJ just so you can see what happens when Jason Kidd leaves/retires. And have you even seen the Raptors this season, they are easily one of the top 4 teams in the east, the only team that is undeniably better than them in the east in Detroit. And don't use injuries as an excuse, a good team has enough depth to deal with injuries.

As for the Jays, yeah, Roy Halladay, AJ Burnett, Gustavo Chachin and BJ Ryan...real plugs. If Burnett and Chachin stayed healthy the Jays would have made the wildcard.

yea i agree the only reason the nets arent the second seed is because they lost krstic and rj is out right now, btw im a nets fan too and i think that the raptors are just a good team and theyll make it to the playoffs (probably the 6 or 7 seed) but if they meet up with the nets, pistons, cavs, or wizards in t he playoffs there done

the reason carter stopped trying was cuz of the managing of the team he felt that they were doing something wrong and the scott mitchell didnt like carter and carter didnt like scott mitchell and why r u blaming it on new jersey its not there fault carter stopped trying, toronto fans hate new jersey just cuz carter is having his best seasons as a net and not a raptor

the raptors are garbage, and carter isnt the first to ask to leave his team you know i can name a bunch, iverson, mcgrady, garnett (he didnt get traded yet because minnesota couldnt make a deal), webber, rasheed wallace, pippen, and a lot more

First of all its Sam Mitchell and since he's on of the frontrunner's to win coach of the year, you better learn it. There's a reason Mitchell didn't like Carter (or Raefer Alston for that matter) is because he isn't a team player, he turned his back on the team that not only had built itself around him but had given him his start in the NBA. Carter didn't like Mitchell because for once in his life Carter wasn't being treated like the Primadonna he really is, Mitchell demanded that Carter actually, you know, put some effort into his game.

Toronto fans don't hate NJ, they just hate Carter because he quit on what was supposed to be his team. Imagine if LaBron (in a very similar situation Carter was in when he was in Toronto) decided he didn't like what the Cav's management was doing so he just started taking jumpshots every time he touched the ball instead of dunking and could barely break 10 pts a game. Then he started complaining about how his knee/toe/ankle/finger/other body part hurt so he couldn't play. Then LaBron demands a trade and ends up on the Wizard's or something. Imagine what the Cav's fans would do when LaBron comes back.
