• NBA to announce Christmas Day schedule Wednesday at 2pm

  07-08-2018 22:36 via raptorsrepublic.com
  The NBA announced Tuesday that they will release the schedule for the 2018-19 opening week, the 2018 Christmas Day slate, and Martin Luther King Day on Wednesday.
  This is the usual high-anxiety announcement for Toronto Raptors fans, who have felt slighted in recent years as the team reached new heights in terms of competitiveness and success without the commensurate prime-time coverage. The reasons, of course, are well known – the NBA works with their American television partners on these

• What did Toronto’s 2023-24 season mean?

  15-04-2024 16:00 via raptorsrepublic.com
  
  This wasn’t the Toronto Raptors’ first losing season. But it was Toronto’s first losing season since Kyle Lowry without frustration, pain, anger. When the Raptors lost in Tampa, lost last season, it was accompanied by enormously angry players and coaches, questioning their jobs, their performances, their identities. They hated losing. These Raptors weren’t happy losing, by no means. But they were more or less fine with it. Expected it. The team remained positive (which ma

• Raptors wrap up season with second straight loss to Miami

  Well… that’s it. The 2023-2024 season is in the books.While some fans might be thanking the man above that this dreadful season is coming to an end, I tend to lean on the sadder side of things knowing that there will not be any form of Toronto basketball until the summer.Alas, the Raptors ended the campaign on a bitter note losing to the Heat 118-103. The two teams were tied heading into the second quarter when Miami took over, outscoring Toronto 43-26 in frame number two.The Raptor

If there’s any indication of that, it was his first basket in this game when he jab-stepped and attacked a closeout, driving hard to the paint and finishing an and-one layup over Nikola Jovic.

• Big game from RJ Barrett in loss to Miami

  13-04-2024 15:44 via raptorsrepublic.com
  Game 81 in the books.The Raptors struggled mightily defensively, allowing 125 points to the Heat on 37 assists, 17 threes and 52 percent shooting from the field. Miami did a great job moving the ball by committee to find open looks even if it was late in the shot clock. Rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr. in particular had nine assists off the bench to go along with 20 points.The Heat remain eighth in the Eastern Conference but are still in play for a top six seed.RJ BarrettIt’s obviously been a rough

  12-04-2024 15:00 via raptorsrepublic.com
  
  In their second to last game this season the Toronto Raptors are heading to Miami to face off against the 8th seeded Heat. Miami is currently fighting for their play-off spot and could use all the wins they can get. Toronto has been out of the playoff race for months now but we can still expect a fairly competitive game from both sides.Toronto may have trouble dealing with Bam Adebayo’s size on the inside, and his speed as well. Kelly Olynyk will likely draw the Adebayo matchup and it&rsqu

  It went down to the wire but ultimately the Raptors were outmatched once again losing to the Nets 106-102.
  Who else other than former Raptor Dennis Schroder would ice the game at the free throw line as he finished with 21 points, nine assists, seven rebounds, and two steals. Brooklyn outscored Toronto 29-22 in the fourth quarter which was led by the German who was playing with a chip on his shoulder all night.Let’s get into the Raptors.Immanuel QuickleyIt was a fantastic night for Immanuel

He is the last bruising wing on the team with Barnes out, and he bruised. When the shooting comes around (if), he’ll be one of Toronto’s most importan

• Winners and losers during Toronto’s lost weeks

  10-04-2024 19:00 via raptorsrepublic.com
  
  The Toronto Raptors have not had a good time since Scottie Barnes broke his hand. They suffered a (very explicable) 15-game losing streak which, by margin of victory, was the sixth-worst 15-game stretch of any team in league history. And that’s honestly not so shocking; the talent on the floor, by virtue of injury, just wasn’t competitive. Still: we learned. 
  And once players, NBA-caliber players, starting players, started trickling back into the lineup, the Raptors started play
