The Raptors have now rattled off 15 straight victories. Their previous franchise record had been done twice with 11 straight wins. They’re scoring an absurd 118.3 points per 100 possessions. That would be good for the greatest offensive rating in NBA history extrapolated over the course of a full season. 

Welcome Toronto: A Weekly Raptors Podcast

Can this win streak last forever?

Raptors are  Now 37-14, eating up their competition on a 12 game win streak, franchise best and ALSO now the longest win streak in Toronto sports history. Over this stretch, Raptors have the #1 Net Rating (+12.3), the #1 Offensive Rating (118.1) and the #2 Defensive Rating (#2)

Is a 16 game win streak in play?

Raptors are 33-14 undefeated since our last POD with an 8 game win streak. Our mighty Raptors are now in the second seed, and we only need to win 2 of the next 3 in order to send Nick Nurse to coach the East All Stars. What. It. Do. BAY. BEE.   Also: are we over doing it on the Canadian recognition thing? How many millions of championship shirts have gone unsold?

Welcome back, good Raptors
