Another strong outing from Sweets: 16/8; Toronto gets revenge on Vince (I don't want to play with you) Carter; look out for Milwaukee--they got a brand new Ford which is racing through Detroit. Good stuff.

Good for Sweets, but what the hell - Charlie killed 'em tonight for TO.

You don't get revenge in the preseason. Vince, RJ, and Kidd played 24, 24, and 23 minutes.
Charlie V has looked very good in the preseason.

CV has been the best rookie so far, or atleast tied with Granger. I have to say, I didnt expect him to be this good. He is 6-10 with a multitude of talents and he went through two years of hardknocks to prepare him for this. We'll see if he can sustain it, but I hope he does.

IF CV is real deal. Him and Bosh could make a dangerous frontcourt pair.

Sweets ALWAYS does great in preseason...he killed for us last year, too, yet he couldn't earn the start over Thomas because of his conditioning. Until he fixes that, I am always gonna sort of feel "I hate to see you go but I loved watching him leave" type of attitude.

i think he will start for chicago. with ant davis and curry gone, sweetney is their only viable pf besides chandler who is sliding to the 5 position. i think this is the best situation you can put sweets in. he has a legit center running the paint with him and he is their best post up option until chandler develops his post game.

I wasnt much of a Sweetney guy and didnt expect much from him. I might have been wrong cause this guy is not fouling as much in these preseason games. I agree with what joe about his "conditioning". I think the guy needs to get in better shape to keep the starting job if he has it already. I wish him the best of luck in Chicago and hope Curry turns out to be a beast for us.

I remember last year mentioning CV as a possibility for the Knicks and most people bashed me. I had a feeling he would be good. The guy is extremely talented. That guy can play sf,pf, and even some center. He can block shots, hit the three and rebound. Not bad. Looks like Toronto might have finally made a good gamble on CV.

I still have doubts about Charlie. I think it was a bad pick, but he is having a nice
preseason that's totally shocking.
