raptors lost by 15 in their opener to the wizards. Siakam is out.

losing this game is not an option, especially on our home floor.

Get out to an early lead and don't let off the gas pedal!

Also, I'm pretty sure there aren't even any raptors in the entire city of Toronto. C'mon now, who came up with that team name?

At least there's a slight chance that there's a few pelicans roaming around New Orleans.

Raps offense is a trainwreck without Lowry and Siakam. Know these guys always play hard so they can steal one here, but this is 100% a TCOB game.

must win. if we lose, I propose the whole board takes a calendar year off to take up some calm hobby that's good for the blood pressure, like knitting, or cocaine.

The Raps will play tough defense. This game is not a gimme.

Home opener, this should be Gino Time.....lets go! Need JT to bounce back and Dennis needs to do more if he wants to get paid next season. Will G league Williams continue to impress? A lot of question marks, but this C's team is deep! Cobra continues to quiet the haters as well......

These Raps guys have pride and are coming off a really bad loss, so I'm expecting their best effort and tough game.

So C's by only 20 or so.

They should not lose to them. My only concern is the Raptors entire team shot like Tatum last game which is unlikely again.
