No Bosh for Toronto, so it should be an easy win. But, the Spurs do have some history of playing down to their competition at times. Don't think this will be one of those those however, I'm sure Pop wants to head into the break on a high note.

This is an important game in the sense that if we lose, this road trip looks a lot less impressive so far. And that would suck considering the way we fought in Golden STate, stepped up in Boston and took care of business in NJ.

3-2 looks a lot worse than 4-1.

4-1 looks like the better record to achieve.

A little bit of 4-1 doubts for me right now... Raps hanging tough. Getting late.

Manu and Parker are playing extremely well.

Raps get the rebound with 30 secs left, down one... timeout Raps.

Spurs in another drag out fight...

Spurs give up the lead with 20 secs... TP couldn't stop some dude in the paint.

Spurs could never get the stops when needed against these guys tonight. Time to try to win it on the other end.

Finley inbounding... Manu gets it... gets his stuff rejected. Spurs foul on purposes, but one foul to give. Need another foul. 8.5 secs left, Spurs down one.

Spurs make the inbound tough enough for Raps to take their final timeout.

Hopefully they make the next one tough, they'll have no choice but to toss it in now.

J.Oneal due for a miss?

Yup!

Spurs need a two for tie, 7 secs left.

Here we go. Another crazy finish.

TP inbounds... overpassing going on... TP has to take a tough shot.

Spurs lose.

That was two last second sets the Spurs ran down the stretch that they did not execute for crap.

3-2 road trip so far, very disappointing I think, big let down.

Jinxed it. This one's on me.

Bad loss. The Spurs were just going through the motions and kept waiting for the raptors to just give up.

Tough loss, poor execution down the stretch very unlike us, fatigue might of been an issue with us playing back to backs on the road.

Very lame, especially considering they were without CB4 & Jose. Oh well, at least it gives something for them to stew over until after the all star break.

It wouldn't be a Spurs season without losing to random crappy Eastern teams on the road.
