It's probably wrong to say the Toronto Raptors are in danger of their third three-game losing streak of the season until they get to halftime of their next contest with a close score.
That's because the lowly Los Angeles Lakers visit Monday night with a three-game skid of their own on the line, and the first two have come with the game basically over by their first trip to the locker room.
While Toronto's six-game homestand started with a pair of defeats, they've been two of their closest games of the season, and the latest matched the tightest game the best team in basketball has had all season.
