January 10th: No Respect! Espn Washington 55% Raps 45% chance of winning!

To be expected. Tired legs. Lack of talent. Lost focus. A winless team waiting for them. It was a recipe for disaster. You could see it coming.

I hope Casey pulls his starters. There's another game tomorrow.

I feel so dirty watching this game.

Awful.

The only excuse I can see is they landed in Washington last night, hooked up with Ovechkin for a night at the strippers, and had a crazy "The Hangover" episode where they had to go to Baltimore to find DeMar and get back in time for the game.


The only positive to this game is a couple of more lottery balls.

It looks like ESPN folks were right .... Raptors are back to the original strategy, play enough to keep the heads up and to get a high pick on the next draft :P

Raps are 4-5 and Wizards are 0-8. What gives with ESPN? When are the raps going to get a little respect against teams that are worse off than we are? It's really bad when we have such a better start than another team and still can't get the advantage from ESPN.

Accuscore =/= ESPN

Accuscore =/= ESPN

guess so. now I know for sure that raps are who they are. a sometimes I do, sometimes I don't care team. :-(

Well, it looks like ESPN was right.

This game is exactly what I've been talking about. Don't be fooled by the fast start. The Raptors are not good and will not be in the playoffs. I'm still standing by my prediction that they're in the bottom five.

If they were as tired as they were last night, I'm nervous about tonight against the Kings. We might see a floor of collapsing corpses at this rate. I'm preparing myself for the absolute worst tonight.

I really don't know about bottom five but I'm sticking with 15-18 wins.

I really don't know about bottom five but I'm sticking with 15-18 wins.

There are some pretty putrid teams out there, but I still see bottom 5. I'm standing by my 16 wins as well.

I see Toronto ahead of Washington, Charlotte, and Sacramento when all is said and done. I think Minnesota, NJ and Cleveland will end up with better records though. Detroit is a sleeper pick. They have the talent to get ahead of Toronto, but are bad enough to fall short. So to be safe, I'm going to say bottom 5.

[Matt52]

OKC lost to Washington.

Now the Raps aren't the only ones!
