Funny how things work sometimes. With the Charlotte Hornets most recent loss, the Toronto Raptors were able to clinch the 2nd seed in the east. Dwane Casey has taken the necessary route of resting his players when the time calls for it. A healthy core of all-stars is more important than home-court advantage in a potential eastern conference finals matchup. The Raptors have a lot to prove before then and the motors of their team need to be ready.
The Charlotte Hornets stood as tall as the third seed on Sunday, but after they clinched their post season ticket, they lost and fell down the 6th.
