    The Raptors will be on the 2nd night of a back-to-back and the 4th game of a 4-game road trip.

    This needs to be a Blazers victory.

    Voted Lillard with first 50+ game but I'm not sure that would be a great thing to see? I'm very happy with 30 and 30 from Dame and CJ. The Team plays better that way.

    Unlike CJ, Dame going supernova wouldn't change his style of play so CJ wouldn't be limited. If Dame gets hot we'll just ride it, just like CJ was hot and Dame wasn't last night, so Dame didn't take many (or IMO enough) shots. Plus 55 and 15 is better than 30 and 30.

    I do like Boucher. A true 3 and D machine. Wish he was a Blazer.

    Are they really that soft? They are playing their home games in Tampa and they have lost on the road to Boston, Philly, NO, Phoenix, and SA. They put up 144 against Sacramento last game. Curious to see how they do tonight against a hot GS team. Hopefully, it is another track meet. I do think they should be a little road weary tomorrow against us though.

    I look at it this way.
    I seriously cannot remember if there has ever been a game where they both scored 30 and the team lost.
    I know for a fact the team has lost with Dame scoring 50.

    I believe that going into the Sac game, Toronto had the worst offense in the league.

    They jumped from 30th in scoring to 16th in one game? Regardless they are 4th in the league in 3 pointers made per game. Never a good sign for our D.

    Raps have held Steph to 1/15 shooting tonight with 0/9 on threes and 4 turns in 35 mins, and only 6 pts.

    Prolly the best defense on Curry I've seen all season.

    Dame better be ready for a long night

    Curry hit a 3 when it mattered.

    And still somehow lost. Apparently Toronto can't score. We need to get this one.

    Or maybe they'll be discouraged since it was a close game and they've already lost a lot this season. Could go either way. We'll have to see how they look. Either way we'll have a great shot at beating them and an equal shot at pissing the game away... so that's fun.
