It's not my take that I quote below, tho I have no argument with it. The Raps got to .500 last nite (and yes, they are playing 3/4 b2b) and don't think they plan on giving it back without a fight tonite. I'd be very careful about the over tonite, since the Raps are playing some serious defense recently. They are 0-9-1 to the UNDER the last 10. If you are going by season averages on the totals, you should be aware that things/strategy have changed. Which bring us to tonite's game. The STOLEN take from another site...

Regarding the Raptors: Even though they're in a 3rd in 4 traveling and playing B2B and no TJ again, the Raptors will at least cover the spread tonight. I just think if the Raptors want to prove they are for real this is the game they will win and I think they'll. Raptors are a very deep team and didn't really play 100% last night to save some energy for tonight. Raptors have been doing well on the road too they have won their last 3 road games. Just a little worried about Murphy if he gets it going from the outside Raptors will be in trouble but Parker or Moe should take care of that. O'Neil is also another threat but Now with Nestrovich and Garbo in the Middle taking care of the middle Raps should be fine, it's the outside shooting that's holding me back from doing the ML. I think this game will be close with a playoff atmosphere coming right down to the wire with the Raptor winning it by 7.

Just a contrarian view for those who may be auto-taking the Pacers tonite.

Good Luck Whatever You Play Tonite!!!

Raptors +6 for me (don't be unduly influenced, this is mostly an FYI)

Nice write up, I agree with everything you said about the Raps. Living in Canada I get every Raptors game and I personally think that Jose Calderon is performing better than TJ Ford was or ever has. Hes playing with heart and determination and is all over the floor. As long as Bosh keeps dominating the Raps should do great. Oh yeah, dont forget Peterson ( so solid ).
