Gotta question Sam's choice of putting TJ in at around the four-minute mark. We went totally stale with Jose out.

jeeze...good win, but it should have never went to the last second....in the final seconds of the game, we need Calderon out there to run point...have him out there with TJ for his defense, but on offense, have Calderon barking out the orders...

good game, good win...

The streak is OV'A!

Lucky to get out of that one given the type of D with played (or didn't play, for that matter).

Chris' free throws landed when it counted the most - a relief, I guess, if anything.

JC continues his rich vein of form.

Garbs' shooting was alot better.

Bargs' first half was hot.

And NJ go down to Timmy D and his Spurs.

TJ Ford

As soon as TJ comes into the game, our half court offence is totally stagnant. It was TJ's inability to create offence that led to Chicago's near comeback.
Jose was so good in working Hinrich, I really don't think Sam should put TJ at the end of games. What is he thinking???

if that was last year the Raps would of lost that game was definitely a nail biter I'am still shaking lol

I'm not sure what we were doing in the last couple of minutes. TJ would set up at the top of the arc, swing it to Andrea, he'd work it back, and we'd throw the ball around the horn until the clock expired. Nobody thought of going inside the arc until we gave it to Chris, who was quickly doubled. I don't know if it is TJ that couldn't get anything going or us trying to run something overly time-consuming and complicated.

In all I would rather have seen Jose left in the game and this whole "it doesn't matter who gets the minutes" mantra is obviously a lie. Jose plays like gold but TJ gets to start and finish regardless.

That being said, TJ was playing decent defense tonight.

TRON

If all us casual fans can see that Sams substitution of TJ late in games is a BAD move, somewhere Colangelo or Embry or someone in the front office gots to see it too, and will hopefully beat some sense into Sam's head if he can't figure it out himself.

I just don't want to see this repeated

TJ Ford

At this point of his career, TJ would not deserve 10 million per year from next year on. Calderon obviously is outplaying him when the game matters the most.

Why was Caldeorn taken out of the game? He was the reason why the Raptors pulled away in the game and he suddenly gets replaced by Ford. When Ford came in the offense went cold.

Enough with this ****. Mitchell should stick with who is hot down the stretch and in this case it was Calderon. This is not the first time that Ford has come in and the team almost blew it.

TJ Ford

I agree. I have no idea why everybody was just standing around, outside the arc. TJ just basically stood at the top of the arc, and practically did nothing. If it wasn't for Bosh on the last play, we would be staring at a loss right now.
