Seriously, anyone who has watched the Raptors all year who thinks Ford has been better than Calderon needs to check themselves.

I like Calderon just fine. He played outstanding today. But you can't leave him on for 48 minutes, and Ford had a damn good start to the game as well, so it's not like it was a gargantuan mistake to put him back in based on his performance up until that point. I don't think he gets enough credit for the most part on this board, especially when certain Euro buffs come in and start unforgivingly, and most times unjustifiably, bashing Ford.
And Calderon is a better passer and layup shooter than Ford, but Ford is better in pretty much every other area.
