- Analysis
- I'm playing on TORONTO. While this is a big game for the Wizards, its a bigger game for the Raptors. In fact, its probably their biggest game of the entire season. A win doesn't guarantee them anything but a loss would be devastating. I believe that they're catching the Wizards at the right time. Yes, Washington has been extremely hot. However, the Wizards just left it all on the floor in a battle at Milwaukee, last night. They ended up losing by a single point. Not all b2b spots are equal and that's the type of loss which will often take a toll. The last time that they played the second of b2b games, they lost against the Spurs. Coach Nurse acknowledged how huge this game is for the Raptors: "I would say that’s probably our last chance saloon a little bit, right? I think them getting that one against us would be awful tough for us to recover from ... " The Wizards tend to bring out the best in the Raptors and I expect that to be the case tonight.
