How did u get tix? They're not on sale yet.

Just saw they're on ticket master. Not on raptors site.

[zulfi]

Has anyone used Raptorman for tickets before? I'm looking to buy tickets, but I would like to avoid using Stubhub seeing as it is terribly overpriced. Any other places to buy tickets otherwise?

[DanH]

Raptor man is great, though I don't know how many playoff tickets he'll have available.

It's similar to last year. We suck in afternoon games and they put so many 2 nights off in between games early in the series.

yup.. taking opponents spread when raps play early or after 1+ day rest was pretty good bet this year.

[Mediumcore]

Finally, some meaningful basketball begins. Can't wait for this match up!!

[psrs1]

I wonder how friendly the whistle will be this series

Don't expect a favourable whistle.

Really eh? Raps fared poorly when they had extended rests? That doesn't bode well for this series either.

Every coaches and GM SOUND LIKE A BROKEN RECORD WHEN TALKING ABOUT POFFS.
"DEFENSE WINS IN THE PLAYOFFS"

If that holds true WE'RE F*KD :
"In fact, this is one of two first round series (Clippers-Spurs is the other) that pits a top-five offense against a top-five defense"

Call me crazy, but I honestly think we have an honest shot of making it to the conference finals this year. If we make it out of round 1 we can beat ATL. Lou won't let us lose against them. I think we can beat Washington but it will happen in 6. I wish i could say it would happen in 5 but it just won't.

We didn't get the 50 wins we wanted but we ended up on the better side of the brackets avoiding Cleveland till the end.

I came here to basically say this ... I really like our chances against ATL. Dropping to 4th could be a blessing in disguise.

Definitely a blessing. Cavs would have crushed us. Hawks series will be competitive at the very least (though I see ATL advancing).

Don't worry, its not just the raptors.
