Raptors beat Detroit and will finish 3rd in the east

After beating the knicks, they can now rest some of their starters, especially Chris Bosh who deserves to relax and watch his teammates cruise to a victory for the last two games. The Raptors secured the 3rd seed, the highest seeding they ever ranked, and comes with a home court advantage against Washington Wizards, New Jersey Nets or the Orland Magic in the first round. Personally, it would be fun to watch them face Vince Carter, the man who put them on the map and then departed when things got tough.

Things are not all settled yet. The raptors have two games remaining and are tied for their best record ever. They can actually beat that record by winning tomorrow against Detroit and on Wednesday against the 76sers who apparently blew out the Pistons couple of nights ago. They may finish with 49 wins when the fat lady sings.

So what does all this mean for us, the fans.
It will be exciting thing to watch the team play in the Playoffs as we are hungery to see competetive games against the elite teams in the NBA. The Raptors can make noise this playoff season and have a good chance to advance to the second round, perhaps sweeping the Wizards or taking the Nets in six. Watching to see what VC does, if the Raptors play the Nets, will be interesting as he left Toronto a few years back thinking it will never rain again here. Perhaps, it snowed when he was here, and unfortunately - wait! that is another story- it wasnt wins.

Settle up and relax people and look forward to the simi final playoffs games.

Who do you think the Raptors would be happier to face in the Playoffs? --
i think the Raptors would rather face the Wizards, as they are missing Gilbert Arenas and Caron Butler and would be easier to beat in the first round of the playoffs.
