The season so far for the Toronto Raptors has been happily free of overly busy weeks – until this one. The Raptors play their fifth game in seven nights when they face the Orlando Magic at the Air Canada Centre.
If we toss out the disappointing loss to the Chicago Bulls, the Raptors have responded well to the extra workload. All three victories since have seen our team hold its opponents to under a hundred points.
The Orlando Magic are playing out the string at this point; their 29-39 record provides a mathematical but not a realistic shot at post-season play.
