    Heavy on the Raptors
    over the Timberwolves tonight. Raptors seem to be turning it around the last few games and should get by the wolves fairly easily. Wolves are 1-8 on the road. Toronto has played Minnesota well over the years and I'm making this a 3 unit play for me.

    Kevin love coming back pretty strong. The past means nothing.

    Too close of a game to call a HEAVY on the Raptors at -7 even though they are at home.

    They match up fairly well, with Bargnani being the X factor, because his size, and shooting ability being able to move the BIGS on Minnesota out from down low.

      I completely agree with your rationale. I am a bit worried about Bosh being questionable due to illness. I'll likely be along with you on the Raps though.

        12/07/09 Andrea Bargnani C Ankle Questionable for Dec. 8 vs. Minnesota
        12/07/09 Chris Bosh PF Illness Probable for Dec. 8 vs. Minnesota
        12/06/09 Jose Calderon PG Groin Questionable for Dec. 8 vs. Minnesota

        If 1 of those guys don't play I would imagine Minnesota would be a great play then.

          Mostly true, but your health statuses are out of date. All 3 have been upgraded to probable.

            Dec 8, 12:46 pm - Chris Bosh will play on Tuesday despite a lingering head cold.

            Dec 7 - Andrea Bargnani will "try to give it a go" on Tuesday against the Timberwolves despite a sprained ankle.
            Technically Bargnani is a game-time decision, but the good news is that it sounds like he'll try to play.

            Best I can find so far.

              Yea I see now on here all of them say probable. I personally still don't like this game, Just like the DAL vs PHO, Too close to call.

                From Toronto Star Reporter Doug Smith's blog:
                "Just got done shootaround with the Raptors and looks like everyone's a go. They're saying game-time decisions on the sick and ailing but they all took part today and that's just being safe"

                                Awful 3rd quarter indeed. 11-1 run sad. And 0 for 17 from the 3 point line what a disgrace to basketball. Stop shooting 3's and take the ball to the basket. C'mon ALL-STAR Turkoglu.

                                  I'm really sorry Raptor backers that was a useless flicker shot by Flynn. Raptors backers had it in the bag. I had the Raps in a teaser though. I feel for you all though.

                                        Unreal! I hate you Johnny Flynn

                                        I had them in a parlay, would be fxcked anyway I think as the Nets game doesn't appear to be staying under

                                          I was expecting a big win too. They didn't get that because they shot 2 for 21 from the 3 point line. At some point you have to stop shooting and drive the ball inside. That was the problem with Turkoglu in Orlando... Also Jose Caderon being out is a factor too.
