Indiana at Toronto 7pm ET

Getting to this one pretty late but then again am I really worried about tonight’s game against the Pacers? The Raps have been blowing out teams at the ACC lately and with Ford back to almost 100% it should be a lock tonight. So why should the Raptors nation be worried? Well in case you have not been following, Toronto basketball players don’t like working on Fridays.

Over the last few weeks the Raptors have lost a lot of games that they should of/could of won. Most of these games have happened on Friday night and thankfully for me I did not see them because I don’t have Raptors TV.

Toronto has lost their last three Friday night contests including a brutal one last week to the Knicks. I can safely speak for all Raptors fans out there that the Kincks loss still hurts.

But let us look at the positives. Tonight with a win the Raptors will have an eight win month and a bit a hot streak going. They are on the most part beating the teams they are supposed to beat and slowly getting fully healthy for a stretch run.

There is one more west coast trip that will be tough so winning the easy ones now will pay off.

This will be the same Pacers team that Toronto beat the other night even though they played bad.

The only thing that will change tonight for Indiana is they get to play in front of a crowd. That could be exciting.

I don’t plan on watching the second half cause it is movie night so I hope it is a blowout by then.

Look for the second unit to continue it’s strong play led by Ford.

It would be nice to see Bargnani get 20 + points and build his confidence for the rest of the season.

Not much to be said for tonight’s game, it should be a romp and I am predicting a 109-85 score.
