Finally, this 10 day and 6 game Raptor road trip concludes with a game in Golden State. The Raptors are looking for a win to end their road trip with a respectable 3-3 record. The game is on TSN at 10:30, but can also be caught on channelsurfing.net and the Fan 590. The Raptors and the Warriors have met already once this season. On Halloween, the Raptors were able to out run the Warriors en route to a 112-108 victory.
What to watch for:
- The Raptors have an opportunity to pounce on a battered Golden State team. Jamal Crawford has sat out the past 2 games with a strained groin, Corey Maggette has been out since December 6 with a strained hamstring, and who even knows where Monta Ellis is. And I'm sure Marco Belinelli is still having trouble feeling his extremities after this. Watch Marco fly at the bottom right of your screen!.
- Jermaine O'Neal is definitely finding his niche in Toronto, averaging 25 points over his last 4 games. His optimism is only a nice bonus as he notes that, “Obviously, the season hasn’t gone the way we want it to go so far, but there’s lot of time left and I think we’re doing the necessary things to put ourselves in a good position for the second half of the season".
- We here at Prehistoric Hoops have not given enough press to Jose Calderon's free throw streak. He has now set the franchise record of consecutive free throws hit at 69, and he is still going strong. Please do everything in your power not to jinx Jose, he has never done anything bad to you.
