Preseason Game 5: Pelicans at Raptors!

Finish Strong!

• It's the final game of the Preseason for the Raptors as they welcome the New Orleans Pelicans to Toronto, but don't get too excited as neither team is broadcasting the game
• Though Kyle Lowry got ejected last night and Kawhi Leonard struggled to find his shot, the team looked great on the defensive end with the team finishing with 14 blocks and 7 steals in total
• A nice moment for Montreal born Chris Boucher, as he got a rousing ovation when he subbed into the game and again when he sank two 3 pointers for the Raptors
• The Pelicans lost DeMarcus Cousins in the offseason as he signed with the Golden State Warriors, but for the most part their team looks the same with most of their offense going through All Star centre Anthony Davis.
• The Pelicans also signed former Laker Julius Randle in the offseason. Look for him to become a dominant threat for New Orleans as well

Dropkick Murphys - "Gonna Be A Blackout Tonight"

I'll save the New Orleans/Pelican themed songs for the regular season. Since there is no broadcast of the game tonight, it's basically a black out. Go out and live dammit!! Regular season starts Wednesday!

Blackout Stout

Brought to us by the Great Lakes Brewery, they call it a Russian Imperial Stout and say that it's dark and bold as power-less metropolis!
