ESPN - Chicago vs. Toronto Recap, November 25, 2007
No Chicago player was able to defend Moon, who brought the crowd to its feet by blowing past Ben Wallace for a layup with 5:32 to play, giving Toronto a 75-68 edge.

“Coach had already pointed out to me that when I get the ball on the wing, no one is in front of me,” Moon said. “He told me the next time I get it he wanted me to take it to the basket strong. When I turned, no one was in front of me so I just went.”

Moon, who said he routinely downs a pair of energy drinks before games, has brought a welcome boost to the Raptors.

“He’s done a great job,” Bosh said. “Every team in the NBA needs somebody like that because sometimes you’re flat. When you have a guy who’s going to come out and run the floor like that and make some big-time blocked shots, it’s going to help us out. That kind of wakes everybody up.”
