mr. IHead, couldn't agree more! Good to see the team getting back to some norms though defence still needs attention. Solid game for all and good signs again. The next 5 are
vs Minn
@Chicago
Vs Knicks
@ Detroit
Vs Chicago
.....4-1 thru this stretch should be the goal....let's go Raptors!
Magic number is I think 6 and so Divison could be theirs soon

......now I think it's 5. !! ... Wins are wins I guess and hopefully KLo will recover quick from back woes....On to Chicago and a game that has obvious playoff implications, both from positioning and posturing! If they can get that one then they should be able to end up #3 in the standings! Let's go Raptors!
hopefully we stay 3 or 4 ... if we drop to 4 we'll most likely face a Washington team that the Raps have owned all season... dont want to go up to 2...Miam, Indiana and Charlotte give the raps fits...and the Bucks are dropping fast....
If they don't start playing D, it won't matter what the number is cause without D in the playoffs,its 1 and done! They have gone from exciting to watch to frustrating! Last night's game should have been a blowout not a nail biter. They better get their shit back together and soon or they will be fighting the Leafs for tee times.
dawg, you couldn't have liked last nights effort then! Coach Casey has his work cut out to try and get this motley crew to refocus before the playoffs! Knicks next and remember the last game they played....
Exactly they are a bunch of Zombies out there What happened to James Johnson?????? He sure has lost his focus and now is getting pine slivers. What happened to all that "new found maturity"?
Vasquez wtf is with him? Casey has to be frustrated and confused. All was good til they beat Atlanta then the wheels came off!
The one team in the east who has been worse then the Raps are the Wizards and that maybe a first round match up
...and we could still lose home court for that if Wizards get a better record and they're only 2 games behind! If Lakers sweep series we are back to wondering what moves they'll make this summer!!.......lets go Raptors!!:thumb:
As a division champion. just locked it up via the backdoor, the Raps are now guaranteed home court in first round.
It maybe less pressure starting on the road .. Raptors I don't think have ever won a game one at home ( often a blow out ) ..
Agree with Ironhead .. Can slip past 4th being Divison champs
Unless we catch the Bulls for 3rd (pretty unlikely) looks like it'll be Washington first round.
I'm having nightmares of Paul Pierce making clutch plays in last year's playoffs and doing it again this year and Gortat and Nene punishing JV and Amir.
However, Washington's coach is terrible and their bench sucks. I think it'll be a 7-gamer, hopefully we win a 7th game in the playoffs for the first time ever!
How pathetic is this franchise though, that we've never had a 50-win season and never won a best-of-7 playoff series in 20 years of existence? And yet, I can't stop watching and rooting for the team, makes me question my own sanity.
