www.rotoworld.com/teams/clubhouse/nba/tor/toronto-raptorsRaptors by 10. Lowry out for the Raptors and Harris playing for us despite his bad shoulder. All eyes should be on Kawhi Leonard today. At least I will watch him. His stats are great except for the games played stat. He has missed 13 games which is really high for a guy to be considered a max player. Is that stat going to be better or worse as his career proceeds. Why all the missed games. He should not need that much rest. Like to see if he still has any vertical lift in his game anymore. I did not like his action around the rim against the Bucks the other night. But I only saw a small part of the game so I need a bigger sample size. How does the NBA manage to schedule us to play in a different city only 19 hours after our previous game ended. That is absurd. We should always have at least 24 hours between games. At least it is against the Raptors who we probably would have lost to regardless if we were well rested or not. They beat us soundly in L.A. without Leonard playing if I recall correctly. I expect our reserves to get a lot of playing time today. Wallace and Robinson maybe will get some big minutes. See how it goes. If they go up by 20 don't try and catch them. If we keep it close go for the win.

Don’t let this game or Ralph Lawler’s story about Donald Sterling not wanting to spend money on adhesive tape distract you from the fact that the Rams only scored 3 points in the Super Bowl.

Doc said this was a scheduled loss. The team had less than 20 hours to get there, and had to deal with customs crossing the border during those 20 hours. He said he rarely bitches about schedules but this one was the worst.

I think Shai had his best game of the season in his hometown of Toronto. Good to see him playing so well. Good to see Boban get some meaningful minutes. And Lou and Harrell played well again in limited minutes. Looks like we are going to be quiet in the trading market.

The Pelicans beat the Raptors in Toronto while playing Phoenix 2 nights before. The travel from Phoenix to Toronto but with an extra day of rest might be comparable to Detroit to Toronto without the extra day.
The Clippers only committed 13 turnovers in this Raptors game, so they seemingly had good focus and weren't sloppy.
But they couldn't keep the Raptors off the boards. Rebounding has been a problem all year, regardless of the schedule.
The Raptors were also without Kyle Lowry.
