Hey ... Still a chance at 50 and winning out also gets them 3rd and the Bucks....please don't let Heat off the hook and put them out of their misery tonight..... Raps haven't won in Miami in forever (like the Hornets) so tonight is time to end that streak too!...... Let's go Raptors! :thumb:
I doubt it .. I see all reserves playing last home game of the season ...

Toronto Raptors . Home court advantage in the first round at least.

Now it is official !

How big has Lou Williams been these past two games? Two 3-pt daggers to seal the game. His shot selection makes me cringe, but when he's knocking them down from 3 he's money. The goat in the Detroit game, and the hero against the Magic and Heat.

Derozan has been a beast this last month and a half. I'm hoping that Amir comes back healthy for the playoffs and Lowry finds his shot these last two games. I really want the Bucks. I don't want any part of the Wizards. I'm one of the few guys that thinks we can beat the Cavs in the 2nd round.

At this point ... Bucks and Wizards are two teams that the Raps can beat ..

It would be nice to win the final two games and hit 50 wins, but I do not want the Raps to get caught up in it.
Just play out the string, prepare for the playoffs.

..and the year of streaks ending continues... Big win to tie up all the loose ends..... Now it's how bad they want third ..... But, as voiced here, stay healthy and focus on game 1 for the next week.... Get everyone back healthy and in playing shape and let's see what we can do here... This is the playoffs, boys, not practice!...let's go Raptors. :thumb:

think they need a big kick ass win to really get some swagger. they just got by the Heat and Magic and really should have clobbered both. I know you have to make sure everyone is healthy, so the those nursing injuries will see limited or no playing time, but, you need to go into the playoffs really believing you are the team and I just don't see that, right now.

If they are going to play reserves I hope Bruno gets some decent playing time. Have to be able to see if he deserved being picked in the first round or if he is 2 years away from being 2 years away.

was it right for Clevaland to rest 4 players today against Boston, who are in a dog fight with Brooklyn and Indiana for a playoff spot..?..i think if there still is playoff implications with who you are playing they should of played

They played 80 games at a high level to get to where they are .. Why should they help sub 500 teams ? Those 4 teams had 80 games to decide their faith .

The more I think about it ... Go for 50 wins .. A franchise milestone .... No matter how great VC and Bosh were .. They never lead their team to back to back 48 win season which DeRoan has ..

Celtics clinched playoff spot and so less hungry opponent tonight . Do Celtics want to face Cavs then they might want to win but if Hawks are a preferred opponent then might rest players .

Raps have a shot at third in the East and I hope that is there current goal. They need to win to get that kick ass attitude that they had early on. I don't give a rat's ass who they are playing they need to go out and kick ass big time!

Like your attidude but some say finishing 4th is better cause itmeans you avoid the Cavs until conference finals .. Raps having winning recorded against Hawks and Wizards .

Agree with you both! At the end of the day Cavs have to be had at some point. Counter arguments include get them early before they get all adjusted, early as playoffs are new to them, late as they will get banged up by Bulls, etc...
Bottom line, play hard these 2 games and get ready for an extended post season! It's the Playoffs, baby! Let's go Raptors!:thumb:

guys you are assuming that the top 4 teams are going to win their series, it is playoff time and shit happens! Agree Cavs are the team to beat. Pacers are on a roll and ,may be the surprise of the playoffs (if they make it). Unless the Raps start to put it together NOW I am not convinced they will be in the second round.

Did you know the Raps rested their hottest player last night and the Celtics are 8-1 in last nine games .. Heck the Raps had won previous 3 games .. Their roster has everyone injury free for first time in awhile .. Playoffs this weekend Go Raps Go
