Game 53: Celtics at Raptors!


In a game that has all of Toronto alight with furor, the 1st place Celtics make a much anticipated visit to the ACC to do battle with the 2nd place Raptors. Though it's not nationally televised in America, this one is triple-circled with 5 gold stars for all od us Canadian b-ball fans!


  • Boston is expecting Kyrie Iriving and Marcus Morris to return to the line up tonight. Irving has been out the past 3 games with a thigh contusion. Fancy name for a bruise. Boston is will be without Marcus Smart and of course, Gordon Hayward
  • Terry Rozier has been starting for Irving and has impressed in his time as a starter collecting a triple-double one night and nabbing 31 points another
  • No one is out for the Raptors and we hope all of our players are mentally engaged as well. A loss here is not the end of the world, but a full 48 minute effort and fight is needed to show the NBA Toronto can handle the big game pressure
Tonight's Raptor Track!

Van Morrison - "Celtic New Year"

This might be the first Raptor Track to feature the Belfast Cowboy. Ireland born Van Morrison is notoriously proud of his roots and has several songs that reference the Celts and the emerald island. "Celtic New Year" is off the 2005 album Magic Time


Tonight's Game Day Drink!

Green Sour Puss

This takes me back. It's been a while since i've had any Sour Puss, I think this flavour is Green Apple. I'll definitely be a sour puss if Boston wins tonight


Raptors 2nd in East 36-16! Celtics 1st in East 39-15!
