Raptors Host the Lakers

The Raptors will try and bounce back from their embarrassing 101-83 loss last night in Cleveland back at the ACC against the Lakers. The Raptors have now lost 3 in a row and need a very good answer against a very strong Lakers team. The game is at 7 o clock, and can be seen on TSN 2, channelsurfing.net, and listened to on the Fan 590.

W2W4:
- According to Matt Devil-in, Jack Armstrong, and many other Raptor viewers, Jose Calderon looked a little bothered last night. His shots were off and he just wasn't as explosive as we are used to seeing. Hopefully Jose will come out with a strong effort tonight.
- Yesterday versus the Cavs, Jay Triano elected to go with his big three starting, Jermaine O'Neal, Andrea Bargnani, and Chris Bosh. Bargnani replaced Jamario Moon. Who will he start tonight?
- The Lakers have won their past 3 games, thanks to Kobe Bryant. Last night at Madison Square Garden, Kobe broke the scoring record in that building with 61. Of course, Raptor fans remember when Kobe scored 81 on us as well. Even with losing Andrew Bynum, the Raptors are going to have to have their defense shimmer tonight.
