OTHER PERSPECTIVES: Raptors Republic
FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY: Atlanta -1, 203 o/u
PREVIOUSLY...the Toronto Raptors lost 110-101 in Boston on Friday night. The loss snapped a four-game Raptor winning streak. Toronto also lost Reggie Evans to a broken foot in the game. The absence of Evans, Toronto's leading rebounder on both ends of the floor, could limit the exposure of Atlanta's weakness on the defensive glass and the importance of offensive rebounding to their efficient scoring. Then again, if most of Evans's minutes go to Amir Johnson, Toronto may not miss a beat on the offensive glass.
It's a big game for Atlanta's tenured guards as they should, for once, be only the second-worst set of perimeter defenders on the court. Marvin Williams should be well-rested after sitting for the final 15 minutes of yesterday's game despite delivering his best performance since returning from injury.
Consider this an open thread for all pre-game, in-game, and post-game (but pre-recap) thoughts.
