    Ridin' the Raptor$ at Philly 1pm.
    Raps at 37-37 are only 1.5 games ahead of Chicago for final 8th seed with 8 games remaining. They have won 2 in a row coming in, with Bosh appearing to be in top form. Philly is 26-49 and eliminated.

    The Raptors beat the Los Angeles Clippers 114-92 on Wednesday night behind steady performances from their two newest starters. Also, Chris Bosh racked up a double-double with 34 points and 11 rebounds. The game before that, they beat the hard-nosed, defensive Bobcats 103-101.
    Sonny Weems, in his fourth game since replacing rookie DeMar DeRozan at guard, shot 8 for 8 and had 17 points while adding five rebounds and four assists. Weems, in his second season, is shooting 70.4 per cent since moving into a starting role.
    Forward Antoine Wright has started four straight games in place of Hedo Turkoglu. Wright is averaging 6.2 points, but had 11 in his last contest and has posted double figures in five of seven.
    Turkoglu, a disappointment after being acquired in a trade with Orlando in July, has come off the bench the last two games after missing two.

    The Sixers were without guard Lou Williams and forwards Thaddeus Young and Rodney Carney in Charlotte and dressed only nine players. Williams and Carney are questionable for today, while Young will miss the game. Athletic center Sammy Dalembert is probable for Saturday with a sore hip.
    The team is monitoring the minutes of Iguodala, who is suffering from a painful case of plantar fasciitis in his right foot. Iguodala is expected to play versus the Raptors.
    Over the last 10 games, the Sixers are 3-7, and are seemingly going through the motions.

    Toronto -4(-120) Toronto -5(-102) Toronto -200 in parlays
    although this line is -4.5(-110), i like the above combo better. Recently my book allows up to one point selling every game. the two sides are (-111) together, it's a way of equalizing the extra juice on -4.

    I hate the 6ers for the fact you never know when they are going to show up and when they do they win or cover every time

      ^ I think last time they played it was on a Sunday @ Toronto and ended up winning by DD. I feel like the Raptors need to win this game but then again they've needed to win pretty much since the All-Star Break and haven't done the best job of that...

        I agree Pauly and would usually be more worried but Philly is really beat up.
        Raps can put this away.

                    You never know when Philly will have a good game and when the Raptors will suck it up. I'd stay away from this game.

                          I hope Toronto shows up today, they're so inconsistent.

                                Let's fatten our bankrolls early !!
                                Raptors are hungry !!
                                A win will put more pressure on the Bulls tonight.

                                      I guess raptors, not cazy about it by any means but 76ers stink at home and Raptors stink on the road. Raptors playing for playoffs still while 76ers are playing the spoiler role.

                                            pass on this one. Seeing the Raps as 4-5 pt favs on the road against anybody is not right, plus the public is pounding this pick and they really don't even have to win this game to make the playoffs. Good luck if you play.

                                              True, however finishing in 8th means a first round matchup against the Cavs. Not that playing the Magic would be that much better, but they can at least have a decent series against Orlando, whereas the Cavs will beat them down badly to send a message to the rest of the league.

                                                Raptors broadcast team on TSN: Sonny Weems scores and one of them exclaims:

                                                "Sonny Weems! He's hotter than you!..."

                                                  no your right and I was this close to pulling the trigger on the Raptors but they have had all season not to be in this situation and they just haven't proven much.

                                                    If I had the capacity to play the 2Q live in this game, I would take the Raptors. I see a ~18 point 2Q coming from the Sixers here, with the momentum shifting in the Raps favour.

                                                      I think 2h UNDER is a good bet.

                                                        Raptors turnovers and weak defense has given the Sixers 12-15 points so far in this game... They only seem to feel it necessary to play D in the last 3 minutes of each quarter.

                                                            2h total is at 103 and that is 20.5 pts more than the total for the game. Both teams shooting 58 and 57% I doubt they keep that up.

                                                                Bavetta games in the 2H have a way of slowing down a lot... I like the U103
