November 1997 was the worst month in Raptors history. The Dinos, after losing their one and only game in October, proceeded to play fourteen games in that cold and grey month and won exactly... one of them.
Overall, the Raptors dropped thirteen in a row in that November, en route to a franchise record 17-game losing streak.
Fortunately, that was then and this is now; this current Raptors team isn’t about to lose thirteen in a row (or, maybe, even three in a row again). But they’re facing the possibility of a mense horribilis — as the Ancient Roman’s would have put it — more commonly known as: a horrible month.
