On March 3rd, the Toronto Raptors embarked on a five-game road trip that would serve as a test –a test of their consistency on both ends of the court without Kyle Lowry, one of their leaders. After the final game of the trip, which was on Saturday, it is safe to say they failed, as the Raptors only won 2 out of 5 games.
However, not all is bad in this failure. Thus far, in the month of March, the Raptors are ranked8th for team opponent points allowed per game (averaging 103.8) on Team Rankings. But even though they are defending well, they are not scoring consistently enough to attain wins.
