    Toronto Raptors will play in October 2005 vs. the European Champions -Maccabi Tel-Aviv. The game will be at the Air Canada Center.

    Maccabi (Israel), who have something like 15 Euroleague records-
    NO DOUBT the best team in Europe.
    Week after week, Maccabi shows thet she is the best offensive team when she have 107 ppg (!!!).
    Just before a month- Maccabi blasted Scavolini (2nd in Italy) by 50 points 123 to 73...
    Maccabi also blasted Skipper in the final last year by 44...
    Maccabi is definitely the best show in europe in this moment.
    maccabi have great offensive players like Sarunas Jasikevicius (played vs. USA in the last Olympic, and win the game with 9 pts in two last min- finish with 28 pts).
    also picked to the best 5 players in the Euroleague last year.
    Anthony Parker- No doubt the best player in the Euroleague... 23 ppg...
    Parker drafted 17th by PHI in 97- also played there.
    now he have some advances from MIL and Clippers...
    Parver picked for Best 5 players in Euroleague last year, and for the MVP in the last november.
    aslo Maccabi have Maceo Baston, who played here in Toronto and from there to Maccabi... and if you don't, remember Baston is a Dunk Machine, some thing like Chris Bosh, it will be interesting to see this matchup.

    but october 2005 it's very long time and the "Dream Team" of europe maybe will not be the same roster...

    Man, the Raptors are gonna get so embarassed by this team. I seen this team play and they are ridiculous the way they execute and play team ball.

    If they were to come to the NBA, they would easily be a top 5 layoff team in the east.
