The Toronto Raptors suffered a one-game slump, which they managed to break by defeating the Philadelphia 76ers last night. I’m being facetious, of course, though I might not have been so jovial had our team blown its entire lead in Q4.
Toronto’s poor shooting in Milwaukee was the largest single reason for the inglorious demise of their unbeaten streak, although failing to close out on the Bucks’ gunners didn’t help. At least our key guys, in particular Kyle Lowry, rediscovered their 3-point strokes against the 76ers.
The Raptors are rounding into form more quickly than any of us would have guessed.
