It is decidedly not cool to be tired of being on top in the NBA, but with the Raptors right now it is definitely something we’re getting used to. This is a weird sentiment to share, especially considering the team’s long and storied history of, uh, not being anywhere close to the top. (And yes, I realize mathematically the Bucks are first in the East, but the Raptors have more wins so forget that whole rationalization.)
Anyway, the Raptors just went 3-1 to keep pace with the rest of the league’s up-swinging teams — the Bucks, Nuggets, and sure, some team called the Warriors.
