Gameday: Raptors @ Bucks, Jan. 5

Now that everyone has collected the couches that they threw onto their lawns – must be nice to have a lawn, you fascists – after watching DeMar DeRozan and LaMarcus Aldridge set the Lowry-less Raptors ablaze. It’s time to spend 3 hours trying to fit it through the front door, eventually removing the hinges, but…

Gameday: Raptors @ Spurs, Jan. 3

The only Superstar who believed in the city of Toronto, the man who wouldn’t allow other teams a chance at him. DeMar DeRozan, forever Toronto’s greatest ambassador, will play against the Raptors for the first time in his career.

Gameday: Raptors @ Magic, Dec. 28

Danny Green and the Raptors carry on from Miami to Orlando for some land-locked basketball. The Raptors arriving ahead of Green, as he had to book a private flight to fit his massive balls into.

Gameday: Raptors @ Heat, Dec. 26

One day removed from Allonzo Trier, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Noah Vonleh sharing the stage that we know the Washington Wizards deserved, the Raptors square-up with the Heat in Miami. Still the league’s top-dog in the standings, the Raptors face a potential first-round matchup in the 16-16 Heat. After a fairly hefty stroke of bad luck with…

The Greatest Dinner Party

Fred was sprinting around the dining room. How should he set the table? Should Jonas and Serge sit together? They generally like to eat in the same place. Kyle was always so good at serving them food. Serge and Jonas were always raving about how Kyle set the table. Even though one of Kawhi’s old…

Gameday: Raptors @ 76ers, Dec. 22

As the Raptors head into Philadelphia for a game against the 76ers, the injury report looks like a nightmare. Kawhi Leonard is out for sure, Lowry-Ibaka-Green are all questionable, and Valanciunas is of course, out. The bench mob that we’ve been lamenting as underperforming enters the limelight as starters, and against a 76ers team with…

Switch-Defense and Turnovers Fuel a Late Comeback

Still without ‘Mike’ Lowry, and Serge Ibaka,…

Poor Shot-Making and Incredible Effort – Raptors First Feel Good Loss

The 4th and final game of the vaunted west coast road trip. A tough game regardless of bad luck or injuries, against the Western Conference’s one-seed, to boot. One more thing, the Raptors were missing Kyle Lowry, Fred VanVleet, Jonas Valanciunas and Norman Powell. There are no excuses in this league – none that carry…
