    Notes
    -Cavs are 3rd in the East and have won 8 of their last 9 games
    -Raptors are 1st in the East with a 2 game lead over 2nd place. They look to bounce back after dropping 4 of their last 7 games
    -George Hill (who scored 22 points on 10/11 shooting last meeting vs the Raps) is not expected to play. Out indefinitely with left ankle sprain. Calderon will start
    -Raptors are 13-4 following a loss this season


    Time to get back on track. Let's go Raps

              In this crazy game of lining up the seedings, it'd almost be better if we lost this game and beat the Celtics Wednesday.

              But in the real life game of raptors really needing positive momentum, it's definitely better if we win this game AND beat boston Wednesday.

                  Well in real life, no NBA player ever comes into a game with a losing mentality no matter what the cause is

                    Winning both is possible, so is losing both unfortunately. On the bright side, the Celtics game is at home and both teams playing on the second night of a back to back.

                      We'll get some different looks this time around. Nance, Hood and Thompson should all be playing. Korver may as well.

                      Cavs are pretty hot right now too. Raps don't generally play too well in Cleveland either.

                      The Raptors finally had 3 days of rest before Boston and were pretty flat, especially defensively. So the "tired" excuse won't cut it.

                      Hope the Raptors rebound. But I have a feeling this one will go sideways.

                        I have this feeling that the Cavs are going to rest Lebron just to piss us off. Don't give the Raps the opportunity to beat Lebron at home, and leave that seed of doubt in our minds heading into the playoffs.

                          so are we beating them by 30, 20 or 10?

                            I doubt it, the Cavs shouldn't be that confident even with their 2 last games coming against the Knicks because they really just aren't that good and they could easily slip to 5th and lose home court advantage. The Knicks also aren't good with tanking so those 2 games aren't exactly in the bag for them

                              I know, because I say it all the time on these very boards. Of course there is the argument for resting key guys for Wednesdays game. I don't support it, but I do see the shred of logic.
