Well folks, this is it. The last day of the regular season and the last day the 2012-2013 Toronto Raptors will play. The Raps take on the Celtics at the Air Canada Centre tonight and look to win their 5th straight, while also being winners of 6 of their last 7 games. Hopefully the push to get better stays consistent ... Read More »

There are now only two games left in the regular season and tonight the Raptors will be in Atlanta to play against another playoff bound team in the Hawks. Due to the horrific incident yesterday in Boston, the Celtics-Indiana game was cancelled for today, making the Raps-Hawks game the main event for basketball fans tonight.

The Raptors managed to cling to a small lead near the end of the fourth quarter to beat Brooklyn 93-87. But the score wasn’t always so close. In fact, the Raps led at one point by 21 points and the discombobulated Nets had to fiercely fight their way back to get somewhat close. A lot of that fight came from ... Read More »

However, they have encountered trouble with the lower ranked teams rather than the better ones. They have defeated the four teams ahead of them during the past three weeks but, for example, lost to the Raptors ... Read More »

  There were four quarters to this game and only one of them was really worth watching. Both the Raptors and the Timberwolves played an ugly, disoriented game up until the fourth quarter, where each team suddenly started hitting shots down the stretch. The Raptors managed to break free and get a few stops near the end to take a ... Read More »

The Raptors are set to play against the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight at the Target Center and it feels as though the season may as well end right now. The Raps have become much less interesting to watch after they realized they wouldn’t be making it to the playoffs this season, as they almost appeared to stop trying as hard as ... Read More »

It’s hard to hold this in for much longer. Amir Johnson, the Raptors’ hard working, lovable big man is so underrated that it’s painful, especially in the wake of one his best seasons to date.
