A back to back on the road, 4th game in 5 days. Going to be tough. It's one of those games you record as a loss on the calendar before the season because of the schedule. But the Raps typically have success against the Wiz so who knows. Heart says Raptors, head says Wiz.

Come on man, we all should be able to mutually agree that the Chicago Bulls are the most overrated team in the NBA.. Barkley still swears up and down that they are the best in the East, the media makes so many excuses for Rose's ***ty play it's ridiculous
I've done some detective work on this guy Illmatic12. Here's what he posted in the Bulls forum just days ago.

This fool was ripping on Toronto in the bulls forum performing fellatio on the bulls posters saying Toronto for sure will fall to the 4th seed and get swept by CLE. Now he's on the Raps forums ripping the Bulls saying they are overated trying to butter up to Toronto. This guy said a lot of disparaging things about Toronto but now he's here playing nice. This guy is a total wanker.

Andre Miller career high if Wall doesn't play. Tough game on a back to back. I just hope they have some legs and Vazquez stops shooting peroid.

Re: GT: Raptors @ Wizards , January 31, 2015 SN360, 7 P.M
I don't think Toronto is a cntender by any means, but what makes Washington anywhere near that and/or better than us?
They are a one man show who have the worse record against above 0.500 (10-13), they have a big in Nene who plays one day and not the next, they aren't young, their window with this group is now, unless they get Durant next year, which would obviously take them to contender status, but again, they don't have him right now, Bradley Beal, their #2 can pretty much only do one thing and that is shoot the 3, his TS for a guy who shoots among the leagues best from downtown has a TS of 524, which is bad, Lou Williams, a chucker has a TS of 567, WS wise his WS is 0.084, which even in Lou's entire career has never been that bad. Beal is overrated by one playoff series (as was Harrison Barnes) but has regressed. John Wall carries that team. They have Gortat who is solid, Pierce who is on his last legs, busts in Porter, finished Webster.
You stop Wall, and you stop the kick to Beal who can pretty much only shoot 3's, and they're nullified. I wouldn't expect a healthy Nene, and Gortat isn't an offensive threat, and his DRTG is good, but nothing to ride home about either. This is why they pretty much beat up on bad teams where they simply have Wall do everything with Beal just hitting threes (and Butler surprisingly), with Gortat manning down low. Against good team, John Wall still shows up, but he can't overpower them for the most part because because they are simply better than an NY or Philly.
They are also the worst team in the top 4 on the road.
So again, how are Washington any better than Toronto in terms of contender status?
I again say that Toronto is no contender, but they have more options than Washington does, so that makes them no better than us for anyone to think they will make any noise either. Washington pretty much says Wall, you be great, and if you're not, we're screwed.

I actually wouldn't mind them sticking around for a while, since they're the easiest out for us. Let them beat Chicago or Cleveland, then we can beat them in the 2nd round

The way I see it, Toronto seems to have Washington's number. But Toronto is probably going to have issues with Chicago.
Whereas Washington has pretty much owned Chicago. Atlanta has owned everyone, and Cleveland is a wildcard.
It's going to come down to matchups in the playoffs. The main thng I see is that teams with steady vets and playoff experience are going to have an advantage, it's something that you notice year after year in the postseason.
