Yes, but Washington was missing two of their stars.
It looks like Sam lit a fire under a number of the players after losing in Washington the night before. They came out attacking from the start.

Congrats to Moon and Bargnani of making it to the all-star rookie/sophomore team.
I believe Bosh will be playing in all-star game?

Too bad Jose Calderon didn't make it the all-star team. He is having a great season.

Can anyone else believe that the Raps lost last night at home to the Clip? They were relying too much on the 3-point shot IMO. Bargnani wasn't hitting them yet he kept on firing blanks rather than playing an inside game.

Man, Kapono can hit the threes once he gets going. Watching the first round of the 3-pt competition and he sank at least his last five shots.

And 7 of our next 8 games are against teams that are below 500.

I can't believe that we lost yesterday. Hopefully Bosh will be able to play tomorrow.

It was a disappointing loss, but we managed to squeak out a win that we probably didn't deserve back in Indiana. The Pacers on Friday were definitely out for revenge and their substitute starters were out to prove that they could play. With Bosh leaving the game Sam had to juggle the lineup and had to put out sets of players that likely had never practiced together (i.e. Calderon and Ford on the floor at the same time; Parker playing the shooting guard position; etc.)

Without Bosh, Raptors really suck right now. Our main problem is that two point guards are bad in their ways, Jose is playing pretty bad and making too many turnovers, his good forms last months saves him from criticisms however. While TJ is now a Mike James instead of a Steve Nash. It's good too see TJ can hit those tough shots like he used to before that injury, but does he suppose to be a passer who can shoot, not the other way?
Andrea is on the roller coaster in term of offence right now. But his defence is visibly improving, and he rebounds better.
However, I would like Raps to take some losses and move down to 6th spot for possible playoff matchup with Orlando Magics instead of at 5th and face LeBron's Cavs.
