FIVE QUICK HOOPS THOUGHTS 1. Authentic Atlanta Falcons Jerseys . RAPTORS OFFENCE: Spoke on Monday about the need for better ball and player movement. Entering Wednesdays game here in Memphis the Raptors are last (30th) in the NBA in assists. On top of that the types of shots theyre getting has to improve. They sit 26th in the League in field goal percentage and 21st in three-point percentage so the efficiency is an issue. Dwane Casey and his staff are constantly hammering the points home that need to be made yet progress has been slow so far. Somehow and someway this component of their team needs growth/development. Really curious to see how this team responds to the challenge Coach Casey has put to them. After the game in Memphis, six of the next seven games are at home. They will have a better schedule and more practice time. By the end of that stretch, theyll have had more than ample time to fix the issues. Then well know what true level this team can play at. 2. COLLEGE HOOPS: Caught a little of Julian Randle (Kentucky) and a good chunk of the Duke (Jabari Parker) vs. Kansas (Andrew Wiggins) game. Great energy in these early season games. All three guys showed me flashes of significant ability and potential. In NBA cities where the possibility exists for a high draft pick in 2014, something tells me that TV ratings for games this wonderful draft class plays in will be higher than normal. Should be a fun season to watch and see the progression of an exciting group. 3. ED DAVIS (Grizzlies): Entering Wednesdays game in Memphis, hes been limited in his role (11.6 minutes per game) and his numbers (3 ppg + 3 rpg) reflect that. Considering they didnt lock him up contractually long term its pretty evident that his current employer is in a wait and see mode with him. He plays behind some talented bigs and the opportunities arent as plentiful as in other situations. Stay with it. As frustrated as Im sure he is he has to be ready every night and sooner or later will get his break. That break could potentially be with another team down the road. Jury is still out on his true ceiling as a player. 4. TREVOR ARIZA (Wizards): When I think about the development of young guards John Wall and Bradley Beal its important to have an older player who is efficient and steady. He shoots threes and plays hard. His ability to be pretty consistent and keeping the floor spread will allow his younger teammates time to develop. 5. TYLER HANSBROUGH (Raptors): Hes been exactly what I expected as the Raps third big man. He plays all out all the time and is someone you can count on every night to give you all the effort plays. Hes a terror on the offensive glass and smartly only takes shots (56 per cent) he can make. Does a terrific job drawing fouls and for a big man hes an exceptional free throw shooter (84 per cent) which is rare. He is what he is, yet I like that - you always know what youre getting vs. the roller-coaster ride that you get with other players. Wholesale Atlanta Falcons Jerseys . The teams were scoreless for most of the first two periods before Canada scored three times in a span of less than four minutes. Sarah Potomak opened the scoring on the power play. Stitched Atlanta Falcons Jerseys . They have homered once every 27.3 at bats, which just happens to be the third best mark in the American League, albeit just 10 games into the season. http://www.cheapfalcons.com/ . JOHNS, N.No fear.Thats the motto for the visiting teams in this weekends NFL playoff games, a brave stance indeed considering the hosts were a combined 30-2 at home this season. And that includes one gimme, the Patriots loss to Buffalo in a meaningless season finale.There could be some validity, though, to the bravado displayed by Baltimore and Dallas. The Ravens have won two of their three post-season trips to New England, and lost by three points in the other. The Cowboys are 8-0 away from Dallas.Our guys have been in tough stadiums against good teams, said Ravens coach John Harbaugh, who has guided his team to the playoffs in six of his seven seasons, and won the 2012 NFL championship.No different this week going into a tough stadium against a good team. The fact that its playoffs and those kinds of things, and we played in a playoff game last week on the road, that helps the guys ... the rookies. Its the first time they have ever done it, but they did a good job last week.All that other stuff, its how well you play the game in that three-hour time block against the opponent youre playing against.The opponent for Dallas is, of course, Green Bay. And the elements in the Cowboys first post-season visit to Lambeau Field since the 1967 Ice Bowl.Cowboys coach Jason Garrett recognizes the interest in Sundays matchup for historical reasons, but understands his players might not.Oh I think we have guys who are football fans and know some history, Garrett said. But having said that, weve got a lot of guys that were born in 1991 or 1992. So its like ancient history to them. The 90s seem like history to them if that makes any sense to you.The other visitors are Carolina at Seattle on Saturday night, Indianapolis at Denver on Sunday.Baltimore (11-6) at New England (12-4), SaturdayThe Ravens come off their first playoff win at Pittsburgh, so they will carry some extra confidence into the opening game of the divisional round. Joe Flacco has seven road playoff wins, the most by a quarterback since the 1970 merger.Of course, he goes up against the top seed in the AFC, a perennial Super Bowl contender led by Tom Brady. One thing is certain: Brady and the Patriots wont be lacking in conviction, either.Were always trying to win the last game of the year, Brady said. We set pretty high expectations and I think we all have high expectations, but youve got to go out there and earn it. Its not easy and this is a first step for us.A lot of teams played last week, we didnt get a chance to do that. This is a week where we can really try to make an impacct on this season. Atlanta Falcons Jerseys China. Dallas (13-4) at Green Bay (12-4)Despite the result of the Ice Bowl, after which the Packers went on to win the Super Bowl, Dallas leads 4-2 in playoff matchups. Its the first time a team with an 8-0 home record in the regular season hosts one with an 8-0 road record.The Cowboys are 15-9 in divisional playoff games, but lost their past three. They bring a high-powered offence paced by league rushing leader DeMarco Murray, QB Tony Romo, receiver Dez Bryant and tight end Jason Witten.Packers QB Aaron Rodgers has been battling a calf injury and has had limited preparation for Sunday. Rodgers home passer rating of 133.2 is the best in NFL history. Hes had 418 pass attempts and 36 touchdown passes at Lambeau without an interception, both NFL records.Carolina (8-8-1) at Seattle (12-4), Saturday nightThe defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks know all about division winners with a losing record advancing to this round of the playoffs. They did it in 2010, and now they host the Panthers, who have won five in a row, including last weeks wild-card victory over Arizona.Defence has been the calling card for both sides, especially Seattle in the second portion of the schedule.Looking to become the first defending champion to win a playoff game since New England in January 2006, the Seahawks led the NFL in total defence and points allowed for the second straight season. They also led in scoring defence for a third straight season and Seattle did not allow any fourth-quarter points in the past six games.The Panthers have been strong defensively, too, ranking second to Seattle in points allowed (11. Cool

and yards yielded (238.2) since Dec. 1.Indianapolis (12-5) at Denver (12-4)Andrew Luck vs. Peyton Manning gets the main headlines here, and why not? The five-time MVP against the young master who took his place in Indy when Manning headed to the Rockies.Luck has thrown for 300 or more yards in three straight post-season games and comes off a strong effort in the win over Cincinnati: 376 yards and a touchdown. He broke Mannings team mark with 4,761 yards through the air this season.Manning, who led the Colts to eight division championships, two AFC championships and one Super Bowl title, has the Broncos tied for second-most wins (46) in the league since joining them.Oh, and as for the home-field thing, the Broncos finished 8-0 at home for the sixth time. Minnesota has the record for most seasons with a perfect home mark with seven.___Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Buffalo Sabres Gear Wholesale Calgary Flames Jerseys Cheap Adidas Colorado Avalanche Jerseys Montreal Canadiens Outlet Store Wholesale New Jersey Devils Jerseys Adidas Arizona Coyotes Jerseys Cheap Adidas Boston Bruins Jerseys Cheap Adidas Carolina Hurricanes Jerseys Chicago Blackhawks Shop Free Shipping Wholesale Columbus Blue Jackets Jerseys Dallas Stars Shop Free Shipping Cheap Adidas Detroit Red Wings Jerseys Anaheim Ducks Jerseys China Wholesale Edmonton Oilers Jerseys Florida Panthers Shop Free Shipping Wholesale Los Angeles Kings Jerseys Minnesota Wild Outlet Store Cheap Adidas Nashville Predators Jerseys Cheap Adidas New York Islanders Jerseys New York Rangers Winter Classic Jerseys Cheap Adidas Ottawa Senators Jerseys Cheap Adidas Philadelphia Flyers Jerseys Wholesale Pittsburgh Penguins Jerseys Cheap Adidas San Jose Sharks Jerseys St. Louis Blues Winter Classic Jerseys Wholesale Tampa Bay Lightning Jerseys Toronto Maple Leafs Outlet Store Vancouver Canucks Outlet Store Cheap Adidas Vegas Golden Knights Jerseys Cheap Adidas Washington Capitals Jerseys Cheap Adidas Winnipeg Jets Jerseys ' ' '
