We can thank LeBron James for making the Raptors’ lives difficult once again. Thanks to back-to-back losses to the Hawks — each of which featuring an insane turn of events leading to an Atlanta victory — Toronto is almost certainly going to meet the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round. This of course assumes they get that far.
The Raptors’ first round opponent is still — still! — undecided. The standings as of today, the penultimate day of the regular season, has a couple of teams still vying for the honour of spending some time in Toronto.
