Prediction

101
http://www.ebsports.net/eze/team/PHO%20Small.png -
123
Why stop now? :(
What do you guys think? You think a new team comes out tomorrow or the same passive timid team we watched last night in Boston? :mad:
Passion of the Raptors... or lack of it
Hmm this is a tough one.
Option 1: the Raptors finally start to feel intensity in their game. They realize that they have the talent, now they just need the desire and passion. They learn from the games in Charlotte and Boston, and really focus.
Now try to say that with a straight face!
Option 2:.... enough said.
My prediction: 115-113.
One word: HEDO! lately, his game has been starting to heat up. Following the last game in phoenix, let's look for him to have a big game and maybe hit some clutch shots.
So this is it.. at 7-10 we have to understand that this is the point where we are considered winners or losers. The Raptors have to be feeling it from Boston, so let's hope.. and hope... still hoping....
