2008 raptors -- glass half full

Looks like boston will handle the wiz tonight, which will leave the raptors alone in fourth in the fifteen-team east, with only one loss more than the slumping third-place magic. after all the injuries (bosh, bargs, tj, garbo, etc), we're in reasonably good shape.

(on the other hand, we have only three wins more than the ninth place pacers and we have to win three out of our next four to reach the halfway point of the season at the same winning percentage we enjoyed at the end of last year. but let's concentrate on the good stuff).

and, for good measure, we could use a tough-minded slasher/rebounder like caron butler. makes our guys look like poodles.
