Battle of the Power Forwards. For the Nets to compete and try to win this game, Yi will have to do a good job defending Chris Bosh, who leads the Raptors with 25.5 PPG. Yi will also need to contribute on the points board for the Nets to win this.
</td></tr><tr class="sectHeader"><td colspan="2" height="127">X Factors!

</td></tr><tr class="x factor"></tr><tr><td>Devin Harris

We've all seen Devin in action and can expect 20+ points. He'll need to use his speed and agility to create easy opportunities for himself and his teammates. If he can attract the fouls, he'll give the Nets a good chance to win.
</td><td>Jermaine O'neal

Off-Season acquisition Jermaine O'neal is a proven veteran in the league. He's currently averaging 13.5 PPG, but we know he can erupt for points. If his game is on tonight, the Raptors will be in good position.
</td></tr><tr class="sectHeader"><td colspan="2">Prediction

</td></tr><tr class="prediction"><td colspan="2">

This game is all about stopping Chris Bosh, as well as having that 3rd scorer for the Nets. I expect a good contribution from Yi tonight.

98-94 Nets win</td></tr></tbody></table>

I expect a Najera on Bosh defensive battle. Bosh doesn't do to well when guarded by smaller players like him. Hope it's a good match.
 
there was a game last year where Yi had 12pts against the raps and held bosh to only 2pts. I think that was Yi's first time scoring in double figures...

"basketball, nets vs raptors, SLAUGHTER!"

raptors win in a slaughtering of the nets. the ACC crowd is too pumped and energized. raptors are too strong up front. nets are too young. I just cant see any way we can win this one.

i hope ill be proven wrong
 
I know were going to loose this.I just want Vince to have a monstrous game and i will be happy
 
going to be an ugly game for us I think. remember the first time the raps played us last season?
 
Yi has gotten 2 fouls and caused 1 fould for both carter and lopez.
 
You don't have anyone who can guard any of our bigs.
 
wow, only 7 points from our rookies at pf. yi 2, ra 2, sw 1, niagra 2 Looks like the kids are getting schooled.
