Game 17: Raptors at Wizards

Raptors are 3-0 on Drake Night after defending their home court against LeBron and the Cavaliers. Tonight they are in Washington to take on the team that swept them in last year's playoffs, the Washington Wizards.

• One of Washington's big men, the Brazilian Nene, will not be playing tonight. He left last night's game against Boston with a calf strain and did not return.
• Wizards have lost their last 3 games against Boston, Charlotte and Indiana. Though they're down Raptors coach Dwane Casey had this to say about the match up tonight: "This team, if they have anything in their pants at all, they're going to come in loud, upset".
• Bizmack Biyombo, who has been starting for the Raptors in Valanciunas' absence had a great game against the Cavaliers and racked up a double/double. Need more of that from the young man from the Congo.

Tonight's Raptor Track!

Megadeth - "Washington Is Next"

Megadeth has always had a bit of a political lean to many of their albums. Peace Sells But Who's Buying?, The System Has Failed & The World Needs A Hero are all names of past albums with political topics dominating the lyrical subject matter. 2007's United Abominations has been hailed as their most political to date and return to form for Megadeth in terms of classic heavy metal and the type of guitar driven songs that Megadeth fans came to love about the band. It's that album where we find tonight's track "Washington Is Next"

Raptors 5th in the East 10-6. Wizards 12th in the East 6-7
