TORONTO -- It was a lopsided victory, a blowout, a laugher. Ike Davis Authentic Jersey . But in the aftermath a 115-91 pounding of the Utah Jazz on Saturday night, Toronto Raptors head coach Dwane Casey insisted it was still invaluable for evaluating the depth of his team early in the season. "It wasnt a night off," Casey said. "Were still building something and its serious. "It gave us an opportunity to get some work in, look at different people and different combinations." The Raptors (3-4) scored the first five points of the night and never trailed on the way to ending a three-game losing streak. Toronto led by as many as 38 points against a Jazz team that dropped to 0-7. "No matter who you play, you have to give it 48 (minutes)," Casey said. "We started the game out, we ended it playing the game the right way. Thats what were looking for." A dozen different Raptors had a field goal and the starters got lots of rest in the second half. Tyler Hansbrough had 23 points off the bench to lead the Raptors before 17,211 at Air Canada Centre. The 115 points marked the first time this season Toronto has reached the century mark. The only sour note on the night for the Raptors was a right ankle injury to starting point guard Kyle Lowry. He had nine points in 15 minutes but did not play in the second half. "I think he just tweaked it," Casey said of Lowry, who in the locker-room after the game was wearing both shoes and only limping slightly. "If he had to go, he would have been OK." The Raptors, wearing green camouflage uniforms in honour of the Canadian Forces, still hardly put on a military precise performance. They committed 12 turnovers on the night, four less than Utah. Toronto shot less than 50 per cent from the field, while Utah shot 44 per cent. But playing the third set of back-to-back games in the young season, the Raptors were happy to take the lopsided win before going back out on the road for games in Houston on Monday and Memphis on Wednesday. "We just needed to get our heads on straight, come out with some focus and take our anger out on somebody," said Terrence Ross, who had nine points in 17 minutes off the bench. "We just played the way we know how to play, so we came out and took care of business." Hansbrough said the Raptors had a better mentality Saturday night than in their three straight losses. "The whole team just came out and competed and thats what happened," he said. Seven games in, Hansbrough said the Raptors second unit is getting more comfortable with each other. "The more time we get the better our chemistrys going to get," he said. And, with a victory never really in doubt, the guys off the bench got plenty of playing time. Amir Johnson logged the most minutes of any starter and still put in just over half the game. DeMar DeRozan was the leading scorer among starters, pouring in 18 points in 24 minutes of play as the Raptors briefly threatened to match their largest lead in team history -- a 43-point advantage over the Miami Heat on March 19, 2008, a game they eventually won by 42 points. Gordon Hayward had 24 points to lead the Jazz. "We didnt really look at it that they were winless," said DeRozan. "Whoever we were playing we thought it was a must-win, especially on our home court. We just tried to come out with high energy." The Raptors led 30-16 after the first quarter as Lowry paced Toronto with nine points, hitting three-of-four three-pointers. Jonas Valanciunas chipped in eight points, making his first four shots of the night. Toronto took a 62-36 lead into the locker-room at halftime with a balanced attack. Nine different Raptors scored in the opening half, none of them in double figures. Rudy Gay, Lowry, Hansbrough and Ross each led the way with nine points in the first 24 minutes as Toronto hit 50 per cent from the field, including 7-of-13 three-point attempts. The Jazz, meanwhile, played like the NBAs only winless team. Utah had 13 turnovers in the opening half leading to 19 Toronto points. The visitors went into the break shooting just 41 per cent, making only one-of-eight attempts from beyond the arc and attempting 12 fewer field goals than Toronto.

Griezmann has impressed since recently breaking into the team and the substitute put the hosts ahead in the 82nd minute with an assured finish, curling the ball into the right corner after collecting it on the left side of the penalty area. France had the majority of possession but Arsenal forward Olivier Giroud missed several chances and failed to add to his international tally after scoring twice against Norway in a 4-0 win on Tuesday night. "Were not going to win all of our games 4-0," Deschamps said. "We made the breakthrough after creating a lot of chances against a team defending deep in numbers. We dropped too deep and they equalized." Deschamps rested striker Karim Benzema and winger Franck Ribery, who has a back injury. French media have reported that he could be doubtful for the World Cup. "We will do everything we can for him to be ready for the Jamaica game next Sunday," Deschamps said, referring to Frances last friendly before going to Brazil. Deschamps made three changes from the NNorway game, with Loic Remy replacing Griezmann on the left wing, Bacary Sagna taking Mathieu Debuchys slot at right back and Hugo Lloris returning in goal. Curtis Granderson Jersey. Remy had Frances first chance, side-footing wide after Mathieu Valbuena had played him in down the left side of the penalty area. Giroud had the next chance, using his body well to shield the ball, before spinning and hitting a low shot that was blocked. Lloris was called into action midway through the first half when he gathered a low shot from veteran striker Roque Santa Cruz. France hit back moments later and midfielder Paul Pogba drilled a shot just wide, and then Giroud held the ball up down the right before floating a cross over to Remy, whose scissor-kick volley flew wide. Remy and Giroud combined well throughout the match, and Giroud headed wide from Remys cross at the start of the second half. Giroud then crossed from the right only for Valbuena to nod the ball wide. Valbuena had set up Giroud for a headed goal against Norway, and almost did so again only for goalkeeper Anthony Silva to tip the forwards looping header over the crossbar. From Valbuenas corner, Silva saved yet another Giroud header. After Caceres scored with his first goal in 55 appearances for Paraguay, Giroud almost netted the winner right at the end as his astute chip went just over. cheap jerseys ' ' '
