Game 44 Pistons at Raptors

Raptors make a quick stop back home to take on Detroit in the 3rd of 4 meetings between the two teams. So far they've split the series at one a piece. How will today's game go? Let's take a look.


  • Terrible news for the rolling Pistons, during last night's loss to the Bucks Brandon Jennings was taken off the court in a wheelchair after apparently tearing his ACL. While there is no official word yet Pistons' coach Stan Van Gundy said he'd be out for the foreseeable future.
  • Raptors have been sluggish as of late, even letting the 76ers get off to a 15-0 start against them on Friday. This needs to be an anomaly if they hope to go anywhere in the off season.
  • Amir Johnson is questionable for tonight's game as well with a sore right shoulder. If he sits out look for Patrick Patterson to start. This may not be a bad thing as Patterson was the spark off the bench for Toronto on Friday's game.
Song Of The Day

"Hey Sailor" - The Detroit Cobras

I don't normally like doing cover bands, but The Detroit Cobras were too perfect here to pass up. Hailing from Detroit they are a garage-rock group who take old Motown songs and shape them into modern rock versions. "Hey Sailor" was originally by Mickey Lee Lane, other artists they cover on the same album are Otis Redding, The Chiffons and The Ronettes.


Let's go Raptors!!
