The Raptors are on a 4 game losing streak, and facing Cleveland will be a tough way to get back on the winning end of things. The Cavs are 17-3, and are on an 8 game win streak. The Cavs are also averaging 103 points per game, so the Raptors will have to do their best to try and play defense like a real team.
What to watch for:
- The Cavaliers are a perfect 11-0 at home.
- LeBron James (obviously). This season he's averaging 26.5 points per game, 7 rebounds per game and 6.5 rebounds per game. More astoundingly, he's been doing this in 35.4 per game, down an average of 3.7 minutes per game from last year. "Mr. Fourth Quarter" has been nothing of the sort this year, simply because the red-hot Cavs haven't needed him in the fourth, especially at home. The Cavs led by 26, 26, 40 and 21 points heading into the fourth quarter of the last four home games.
- The Raptors have now dropped to last place in the Atlantic division, hopefully this will give them some flair coming into this game.
- Last game, Jermaine O'Neal played his best game in a Raptor uniform, with 10-18 FG, 24 points, 8 Rebounds, 2 Assists, and 6 blocks. Hopefully he will respond in a big way against the Cavs.
