Game #56, 24 February 2007
Toronto Raptors [30-25] @ Charlotte Bobcats [22-33]
7:00 PM EST, TSN, Fan590.com
Bobcats Arena, Charlotte, NC

The Charlotte Bobcats have won four games in a row, including a win at
home over the Chicago Bulls, and another home victory over the Philly
76ers last night. On Saturday they host the Toronto Raptors, who are
coming off an easy victory over a healthy but deflated Indiana Pacers
team. The Bobcats visited Toronto in late January and were routed, a
105-84 game that saw the Raps hold the Cats to 8 points in the third
quarter. The Raptors had a balanced scoring effort with seven players
scoring eight or more points in the victory. Raymond Felton and Gerald
Wallace each had 19 for the Bobcats and Emeka Okafor played a quiet
game, contributing just 13 points and five rebounds in 31 minutes. This
game is the start of a three-game road trip for the Raptors that sees
them in San Antonio on Monday and Houston on Wednesday, so a win
Saturday is important. Expect Juan Dixon to make his Raptors debut.
Watch the game at 7:00 on TSN and the Fan590.com--I command you.

Bobcats starting to come together as a team. They're going to be tougher than the Pacers were today.

Thankfully we're both on back to backs and the Bobcats already got their win.

Raps are focused. This should be a win.

Wow, I didn't know they have won 4 in a row. They must be really hot right now. Hope we can bring them back to reality.

Bosh always seems to have a HUGE game agains the 'Cats... but then again, they don't really have anyone who can guard Bosh

Bargnani will win the rookie matchup with 20+ points, with a huge 3rd quarter.

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:39 PM

Raptors lead 19-18 after one.

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:39 PM

In the 2nd however, Graham with a goaltend and then a foul... tsk tsk. lol

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:41 PM

Dixon starts his Raptors career out 0-2, Raptors shooting below 40%.

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:42 PM

Uh-oh, Matt Carroll into the game now. He had a big game against the Raptors last time out.

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:42 PM

Raptors really lucking out with the Bobcats' free throw woes. They've missed 3 of their last 4.

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:43 PM

Nice, rim interference on Voshkul, discounting what would otherwise have likely been an Okafor bucket.

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:44 PM

Calderon misses the long jumper again. He's ice cold tonight.

McInnis makes the mid-range jumper.

Calderon misses the layup.

Morrison makes the long two.

Bobcats quickly extend the lead to 4.

Calderon FINALLY gets something to go, hits the layup and-one.

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:46 PM

As a side note, Bargnani's playing great tonight. Especially off the glass, he's rebounding on both ends of the court.

**Crossword** · 02-24-2007, 05:46 PM

Why does Brian Heaney have a job? I'd rather have Mattsanity analyze the Raptors.

shookem · 02-24-2007, 05:54 PM

I just got in. Looks like a good one so far.

I agree with Leo, Chuck has got to start picking real x-factors.
