Ouch. I'm not actually happy about that news; I was really looking forward to seeing how we stack up against a team in our talent bracket.

Wins are nice too, though.

Edited to fix caveman grammar.

Hope your not messing with me, I just wagered a substantial amount on the Raptors... And I rarely ever do that because when both lose its a horribly crappy feeling

Looks like you caught the line before the news of Butler's injury came out. Congratulations.

Bad news for my fantasy team. And as much as I love a win, I'd rather see how we fare against the revitalized Wizards.

Yeah, it's a mix of feelings for me too. I wanted to beat them at full strength. But remember we didn't have Bosh last time. Don't have Ford still. But Arenas of course is also out, so we have a huge advantage tonight.

A win is a win and that's the most important thing right now. We've proven we can beat top teams this season. So I won't be any less excited about a W tonight.

That's a big loss for the Wizards, Raptors need to take advantage of this opportunity and get a road win tonight.

Wait, how are the Wizards still favored by Vegas? I'm not liking that.

I cannot find any info on Caron being out, and Caron is also listed as a starter in the Wiz game thread. I hope you are wrong, I want to see an exiting tough game, not a beat-down.
