Game #52: Toronto Raptors 115 - Indiana Pacers 106

[Demographic Shift]

know its early but im already starting to make my 1st round matchup wishlist. Okc-Houston would be electric. Nugs-Utah would be great and Lakers-Mavs. if Memphis make it id like to see them vs Clips. Clips weakness is size and J.J.J and J.V might be enough of a problem to steal a game or 2

Could be some of the best first round basketball in years. No penciling in the inevitable first round outcomes like past years.

If the Raps win tonight at Bankers Fieldhouse they go up 7 games in the loss column on the Pacers. The hated Chowders go up 6.
So what ?
So what that means is that the Raps could go 15 and 15 to the end of the year and the Pacers would have to go 23 and 7 to catch them. It also means that to catch the Chowders the Pacers have to go 22 and 8 if the Chowders play 500 ball to the close.

Math is cruel eh.

Hoping the Raps win and put the Pacers in the race for 4th and home court at best with the Heat.

Also looking at what type of seeding id like on our side of bracket. If we stay 2 seed we play 3-6. I think Boston/Pacers are who i would want to be there. Philly and Miami are building specifically for the Bucks. So let have them try it out in the 2nd round, at the very least they will beat the shit out of milwuakke even in a losing effort. Im confident facing both pacers and celtics. And i just really want a Boston playoff series. We have been rivals without a real defining moment for the last 5 years I just want to beat these guys in the playoffs so we finally shut those massholes up.

Boston is the one team that I would LOVE to play (and destroy) in the playoffs, but they scare me. Kemba loves to light it up against the Raptors, and there's no way in hell that that would be a fair series. Refs would be helping Boston every way they can.

Man, our perimeter defence must improve. Teams are hitting tons of threes on us.

Sabonis was guarding McCaw (I think) but he was playing off him about 18 feet. smh.
