The NBA is a fickle beast, once again. We knew that already though, right? We have to, as Raptors fans, because of the up-and-down nature of this team. Lineups change, effort is sometimes inconsistent, and the wins and losses come from who knows where.
This past week with the Raptors is a perfect summation of that reality. It was thought to be a light week, a mere three games against, first, two teams hovering around respectability, and then a talent-deficient squad sinking to the bottom of the conference. No problem, right? Wrong! The Raptors went 1-2.
