The Dallas Mavericks (21-42) start the second half of this road trip, playing the Toronto Raptors (35-27) on Sunday afternoon at the odd start time of 5:00 pm CST. Toss in the start of Daylight Savings Time and I expect both teams to be out of sorts. Dallas is riding a six-game losing streak, falling […]
Before a single possession takes place on the court, the Toronto Raptors are already expected to beat the Dallas Mavericks at home on Sunday. At least that’s what the Raptors fan base believes, especially after being held hostage by exceeded expectations and a timeline that’s regrettably ahead of schedule. Simply put – the NBA’s lone […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-42) have lost 16 of their last 18. The Toronto Raptors (35-27) have dropped four of their last five. Something’s got to give on Sunday when two teams heading in the same direction but on very different trajectories meet on Sunday at Scotiabank Arena. Tipoff is scheduled for 5 p.m. The Raptors […]
While the Knicks have enjoyed a nice little 15-5 stretch that has seen their defensive rating jump into the top 10, and come away with victories against some good teams like the Spurs, Raptors, Rockets, Celtics, Lakers, and Nuggets, everyone knows that much of the Knicks’ postseason success rides on the availability of their backup […]

There are also games like tonight, where seemingly all of those things happen all at once. Most nights, that would be a nightmare to watch and even worse […]
The Toronto Raptors, by just about any measure, are enjoying a highly successful season. At 35-26, they’ve surpassed all reasonable expectations for a team that picked up just 30 wins last year.

As KAT said, “Count your eggs.” Mike Brown On hanging defensively in a low-scoring third quarter against Toronto: “We came […]
As of tonight, the Toronto Raptors have officially lost their twelfth consecutive game to the New York Knicks, continuing a disheartening pattern begun in 2023. Brandon Ingram’s 31 wasn’t enough to outscore the top dogs of the Atlantic Division, as the Knicks hammered Toronto for a 111-95 loss. It’s fitting for New York to have […]

The Wizards keep doing the improbable this season. Last night, for example, they shot 47.1% from three, were +21 on the scoreboard from deep (16 made threes to Toronto’s 9), and lost by nine.

Has it really been almost nine years? Yes, that’s how long it’s been since my most recent personal playoff climax. Sure, the Spurs made the playoffs in 2018 and 2019. But those series can’t even remotely compete with what happened in the early hours of May 10, 2017 (May 9 in the US). I had […]
Coming off an impressive win against the East-leading Detroit Pistons, the Spurs traveled north of the border to take on the Toronto Raptors.

Victor Wembenyama, though, warmed up ahead of the Spurs’ sole game in Toronto this season to a level of fanfare most of those aforementioned guys rarely see. People were going wild […]
