It’s been a while since we’ve been treated to regular Sunday afternoon basketball games in Toronto. Back in olden times, the Raptors would quite frequently play at that time, often tipping off games as early as 12:30pm. This is great for, say, hyperactive kids, but not always the best for nightowl professional athletes on a weekend in a major metropolis. Case in point: after tipping off at 3:30pm today — a Sunday — the visiting Mavericks missed their first 11 shots against the Raptors, committed five turnovers, and fell behind 11-1 early. This after almost six minutes of action.
