The Raptors had some closely contested games this preseason (one against the Sacramento Kings in Vancouver and another against the Boston Celtics) but tonight's game will be as close as you'll get to a regular season environment as both teams rival one another in their quest for the Atlantic Division title.
Ideally the Raptors will try harder to get the ball moving after having only 16 total assists in their game against Maccabi Hafia. The Raptors averaged 21.2 assists per game in the 2012-2013 season good for a 20th rank in the league.
The Raptors can match a franchise record if they win their seventh preseason game tonight. That record was set in 2006. Also, if the Raptors win tonight they'll have gained their nine straight pre-season victory against New York.
Will you be at the game in Montreal tonight? Let us know what you think as the Raptors finish the preseason tonight.
