P-Double can't handle Graham
Too strong and aggressive. Haha.
Dorell is the shit in this game man.
He is shooting over 60% in three range.

Season Summary: Toronto Raptors

Raptors were expected to be a lottery team this year but with a new GM coming in and players stepping their game up, the Raptors turned things around and are the "Cinderella Story" of 2005-06. Out of nowhere, they brought there "A" game, matter of fact make that their "A+". They won 36 out of a possible 58 games which made them fourth in the Eastern Conference.

Image

Leading them to these wins is there franchise player Chris Bosh. Bosh was continuing to improve his already stellar play. With averages of 23.8 points, 13.5 rebounds, 2.9 blocks and 55% shooting, there is no doubt that Bosh will be a perennial All-Star. Chris is entering the final year of his rookie contract that will pay him $4.2 million. There is no doubt in my mind the Raptors will offer him a Max contract.

Not only did Bosh help them lead the teams way in the league but he had a good supporting cast in rookies Joey Graham and Charlie Villanueva and veterans Mo Peterson and Mike James.

Morris Peterson came off the best season in his career and has surpassed every stat from last year by a few. Surely is a candidate for Most Improved player.

Another player that also improved was Mike James. James had a career year as well too with averaging close to 16 a game and 6 assists.

Last but not least, the young guns Charlie Villanueva and Joey Graham. They dazzled the league by their amazing chemistry together and showed them the Raptors made the right choices on Draft Night 2K5. Graham, a strong canidate for ROY has been putting up stellar numbers near the end of the season. With averaging 16.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 3.0 assists, there is a high chance he will get that ROY award.

As for his buddy Charlie Villanueva, he also showed that he deserved to be picked 8th in the NBA Draft. He came off the bench sharing minutes with Pape Sow averaging 8.1 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.59 blocks in 27 minutes is quite impressive for the rookie.

Honorable mentions are Jose Calderon, Dorell Wright and Pape Sow.

All in all, the Raptors future is looking bright.


Grade : A

Tue May 02, 2006 4:02 pm

I'd say A too and I'm not even dickriding then. I know this is NBA Live but you haven't done any major trades or anything so this is the same Raptors squad.

If you convert it to 82 games, you would've been 51-31. 8-)
Good luck in the playoffs. (Y)

Nice summary dude (Y) A+ is spot on
