Screw him.

Mr.Raptor = Alvin Williams

Trying to get me riled up?.....well the week of Mo is just begining. Here is the difference bewteen Mo wanting to be an all-star and TJ.

Mo never did it at the expense of his team.

Mo didnt sulk on the bench for a year and you know it. The only time he spoke up was on behest of his agent...to get the $$$$$$$.

Don't forget , he was probably our best player on the floor in last years playoffs.

Right, becuase Mo was too busy eating Big Mac's and detailing cars all summer to put the time in on his game to become an all-star.

Actually Rasho was our best player, but yes, he did play good in the playoffs...

How's he doing in NO? Playing lots of meaningful minutes?

Don;t be bitter cause you have in the pool.....

I have no delusions of grandeur when it comes to Mo,

inconsistant?

out of shape?

Sure..I wouldn't argue that.

He is the type of guy who took pride in playing good defense, and took his shots when he got em...he was never really a chucker. Nver took days off for the "flu" etc.....backed down from no challange, Mo taking a charge, was a beautiful thing.

First Raps jersey I ever bought....oh and he is from MSU

I don't care about Peterson... never did... he is another mediocre player who on really, really bad team got much more minutes then his talent deserves.

I don't really care if people cheer or boo him but knowing that there are always sheep who'll get into the hype, most likely he will get warm reception.

I almost forgot that he was ever a Raptor, that's how important he is in my Raps' watching.

And Aciee is right... Mo never started the season in shape... he was bitching, crying and complaining once removed from starting lineup and his inconsistence was at the level that Joey Graham's is... so all in all, I don't give a shit about him

Mo did the hard fouls that others didn't dare to do, guy was the only who could stop a little bit VC in the playoffs ... say what you want, but nobody still does what he did. (Rasho doesn't play the same spot).

Maybe not the best, but he gave us what the team lacked: toughness.

Thats a little harsh man....I am not a Mo fan because of Hype...when the fuck did Mo ever have hype? You're right he didnt start in shape...He did not "bitch and cry'".

Mo, was a good guy here, who keeps a business here, he was personally always very nice to me, when alot of the Raptors were not.

A-1 guy....

I will tell my Mo story a little closer to his return date...

Some clapping, possible combined with standing.

He was a trooper here, and played to his talents mostly.

Sadly, his talents include an inconsistent shooting stroke...

Missed the game completely. I hope the crowd gave him a good pop.
