The Raptors are on a tear right now, perhaps the most pronounced and significant run they’ve been on since... since... I honestly can’t even recall. There was that 11-game win streak in 2015-16, but we were still coming off the horrors of the ‘15 post-season and while we knew the Raptors were good, we were also wary. Before that, we can maybe go all the way back to 2001-02, when it felt like Toronto was the toast of the NBA, but really, that’s it. That’s the list.
The Raptors are looking for their ninth win in a row tonight against a Nets team that has gone 2-13 since the beginning of February.
