Final Score:
Toronto 98 Washington 64
another very sick showing, all-around, taking the W in the pre-season finale. following a 33 point win with an even more all-around impressive 34 point win.
Toronto End of Preseason record: 3-1 vs. NBA competition, only loss came with our bench basically losing to celts big 3, only in the final 35 seconds.
string of wins to get confidence over the eastern conference rival Bulls, East Champs the Cavaliers & the Wizards.
5-2 overall this summer getting acclimated to the new guys on the team.
my thoughts,
true story when i say, best game ive ever seen
Andrea Bargnani play, on his 22nd birthday none the less, he showed that raw talent & got it going real early, showing his new penchant for hittin the glass, showed many things ive never seen before in this game ending with a statline of
17 points, 8 rebounds (4off) & 3 blocks in only 22minutes
Delfino w/ a eye opening 3 game string of play, looks like he's that slashing, defensive, energy/hustle guy we thought he was afterall, line of the night; solid 10points, 6 rb, 3as, 3 stl, 2 block in 18minutes, coulda been better, the open shots just didnt fall tonight.
Kapono really likes to shoot the ball, slow start, 50% FG for 12PT (games 2nd leading scorer, ties scoring lead for Wash)
Dixon great shooting, 3-4fg, 2-2 from 3, picked his spots, 10points, 4rb (3 offensive) thats what i like to see, the smallest guys out there, ford & dixon rebounding the ball.
Ford w/ 6 rebound, 8 assist, & you barely notice him.. which as T.O. knows, that's a good thing sometimes, 0 TO.
all i can say is.... Wednesday, Halloween, 76ers,
you know the deal boys, what yall thought
