  • “A 91-75 win over the Miami Heat and Cleveland’s dramatic last-second win over the Philadelphia 76ers assured the Raptors of a first-round playoff matchup with the Orlando Magic starting Sunday night in Florida, giving Toronto a few days of rest and time to prepare for its second post-season appearance in as many years.” (Toronto Star)
  • ” Toronto’s Magic moment arrived when Devin Brown buried two clutch free throws to cap a controversial ending in Philadelphia. And so begins the Raptors’ playoff run, which became official last night moments after Toronto picked up its game in the second half to beat the visiting Miami Heat 91-75. ” (Toronto Sun)
  • “With that in mind and their 91-75 win over the lowly Miami Heat in the books, the Raptors gathered in their dressing room to watch the final minutes of the Philadelphia 76ers game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.” (Globe and Mail)
  • “As the Raptors closed out the home portion of the regular season last night, franchise player Chris Bosh took the microphone before the opening tip and asked the crowd to continue to show its support as the post-season looms.” (Toronto Sun)
  • “It was, after all, entertaining to hear Mitchell deliver the apologia for a dismal year in Raptorland last night. The regular season is coming to an end with his club in a slump. The post-season begins this weekend and his players appear alarmingly unenthused. But no matter.” (Toronto Star)
  • “The Toronto Raptors, by virtue of their 91-75 victory against the Miami Heat and the Philadelphia 76ers’ controversial 91-90 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, earned the No. 6 seeding in the NBA Eastern Conference playoffs so that is who the No. 3-seeded Orlando Magic will face in the first round.” (Orlando Sentinel)
  • “The Orlando Magic got some resolution as to their first-round playoff foe Monday night, but it’s not necessarily good news for them. The third-seeded Magic (50-30) will face the sixth-seeded Toronto Raptors (41-40) with Game 1 of the series beginning either Sunday or Monday at Orlando’s Amway Arena.” (Florida Today)
