Lifeless Raptors Destroyed by Rockets

No Bosh, no Calderon, and Turkoglu left early. Monday night marked the end of a disgusting 2-game road trip for the Toronto Raptors in which they were outscored collectively 235-191, including tonight’s ugly 116-92 loss to the Houston Rockets.

It’s times like this that it becomes terribly difficult to remain a loyal and true Raptors fan, but luckily the Raptors do have two positives to take from this experience: (1) they now have 3 days off, hopefully more than enough time to finally heal Bosh and hopefully Calderon, (2) all the teams below them are playing just as poorly.  Despite losing the Raptors managed to not lose any ground on either the Bobcats or Bulls who were also both in action and managed to lose, both on their home courts.

In this contest, the Rockets were led by both Aaron Brooks and Kevin Martin, who poured in 28 a piece, against the zombielike Raptors defense.  The Raps were lead by Marcus Banks, who filled in for Jose relatively well scoring 15 in 24 minutes of action off the bench.

The Raptors next play on Friday, when the New York Knicks come to the ACC.  Whether Bosh, Calderon, or Turkoglu are in the line-up or not this game stands as an absolute must win for the Raptors, who have managed to make all their fans quite uneasy as of late.

Please for the love of God, Chris Bosh come back!
