Raptors think bigger after sizing up Game 3 damage
PHILADELPHIA—The danger is to write it off as an aberration, to think that a horrible Game 3 of the Raptors-Sixers series — coming on the heels of six good Toronto outings as it did — was just one of those things and that if the Raptors give their collective heads a shake and come to their senses, the world may once again feel right.
It would be easy to think that, and in some ways understandable. This is a veteran Toronto team that has shown an impressive level of consistency all season, never too high and never too low. But it would also be oh so ridiculous to think this is just more of the same, and not dealing with it could very well cost them their season.
