RAPT ATTENTION

No Sasha, no JO, again no Dooling, 
For Raptors no Bargnani, they've needed retooling.
But they have Johnson, another Johnson, too,
They all agree a Cs pounding won't do.

One Raptors possession two Cs went down,
Think they needed a rest, came late into town.
The Raptors are energized, they are tired of losing, 
Taking advantage of the Cs who seem to be snoozing.
 
Doc's full timeout, told the guys they've no emotion, 
Called a second timeout, saw a rare Doc explosion.
Q1 Bradley in, even with a sore shoulder, 
Brought some energy to the guys who played like they're older.

Q2 an early spark from Pietrus, Bass and KG, 
Bradley playing offense and his stellar D.
Cs are pushed and tossed all over the court,
From the Raptors Cs are playing some other sport.

An unRondo-like game, getting nothing done, 
Been like this--throughout--since Q1.
There has been no defense from the Cs starting group,
7:43 left Q3--Rondo's first hoop.

Cs are dribbling around, not even setting a play, 
Feels like the Raptors will get their payback today.
16 point Raptor lead, they've gotten there twice, 
The Cs offense and defense in Q3 turned to ice.

Rondo flying into the paint, then passing out to the rim, 
Shot clock keeps winding down, what's wrong with him?
For a change of pace, the Cs two-three zone, 
KG's yelling at everyone, he is scoring alone.

Tension between Rondo and Kleiza could not be missed,
It was Kleiza who took Rondo down when he hurt his wrist.
How did the refs miss Pierce getting pushed to the ground?
Doc so angry throughout this game, uttering not a sound.

As the Cs found no energy that could be tapped, 
We found, most of all, it was Doc tightly "rapt!"
