    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> The term "Cinderella season" is being used pretty liberally where the Raptors are concerned this season but you won't hear it in the locker room.

    "When you say Cinderella that kind of brings to mind a team that is somewhere it's not supposed to be," guard Anthony Parker said. "I don't think that's the case here. You would never say Chicago had a Cinderella season. You look at them and you say they're supposed to be there. I think just because we're not on (U.S. national television) and it's the first time we're all together and we've never done something like this before, that you look at it as a surprise. I don't look at it as something that is a fluke."

    Chris Bosh can see why people might view the Raps in that light, but he doesn't share that view.

    "I think the definition of a Cinderella season would, I guess, fit us but if you ask us I don't think we're like that," Bosh said. "Nobody really expected much from us but within the room we're one of the best teams in East. That's how we feel." </div>

    Nice article, but I think the Raptors can bring more then what people will be expecting.

    Check the Playoff preview thread in the Bulls forum for schedule details.
