  • Game #12 (In-season Tournament #1) Raps vs. Celtics @ Scotiabank Arena (Friday November 17th @ 7:30 Eastern)

    Raps vs. Celtics

    As per Darko in today's press conference, Trent is expected to play, O.G. isn't.

    From the Sun: Toronto’s four-game homestand began Monday night when Washington scored 64 points and led by as many as 23 before the Raptors got their act together in the fourth quarter to emerge with a 111-107 win.

    Against the Bucks, the Raptors trailed by 15 points after the opening quarter and allowed Milwaukee to score 70 by the break.

    In-season tournament (from Sports interaction sportsbook): Because this is Toronto’s first In-Season Tournament game, a quick reminder in that it’s much like how the soccer World Cup is set up in that there are six groups of five teams (Western Conference and East), and the winners of each group and the top two second-place finishers overall advance to the knockout round, where it’s all single elimination. Group play games are staged every Tuesday and Friday through the end of the month. All teams have unique courts to make it clear to those watching that it is a tournament as opposed to a “normal” regular-season game, but all tournament games actually are regular-season games other than the final.


    Go Raps!

    Revenge with Pride on the line.

    I really hope both OG and Gary are back.

        I'll tune in for the championship but not worth paying attention to right now.

          Can't say I've had any added interest. Just treating it like a normal regular season game. I guess when the actual tournament begins, then it will get fun since they're all elimination games.

            There's a championship?
            I get they're trying something to drum up fan interest but it's a fail, might as well call it the November cup!

                Court might be the best looking one. If we lose, we lose in style

                      The cheesiest thing have been watching these games on ESPN and reddick and Richard Jefferson are trying to hype it up to the fans with corporate talking points. No way these dudes are treating these any different then a regular season game

                        Most of these courts are brutal to look at on the screen. The all red and blue once make it really distracting
