The RAPRORS are winners of 2 straight - going for their third win tonight. Which would be the 1st time they have done that since - the 1st 3 games of the season.
They have dominated at home the last 2 games against quality opponents - HOUSTON and ORLANDO - while Milwaukee got creamed by CHARLOTTE last game..........so now you get the Raptors plus a tonne of points. Seems like an easy decision right????
HOLD ON - who have the Raptors beat on the road????
Recently they have victories against LAC (8-25) and SAC (8-26). Both of these games they had rest for also. Before that was a victory against NJ - a team that they are always motivated to play hard against - an undermanned Miami (18-14) and Charlotte (12-22) , season opening game against PHIL (13-20) (boy have they underachieved this year) and, in the 3rd game of the season - MILWAUKEE (16-19) (a team that took BOSTON - early season BOSTON - to OT)!!!! Oh oh!!! Revenge time for MILWAUKEE also.............
TORONTO's road losses have been by 6, 13, 10, 8, 10, 27 (Mitchell got fired after this game), 39, 13, 13, 7, 18 and beat MIL by 4 in the aforementioned game. Toronto knows how to lose BIG.
And I look for them to do the same tonight, as I am not accepting the "gift" from Vegas of all those points.
