Game Preview
A pair of teams from the Eastern Conference tangle on the hardwood in search of a victory down in South Beach. The Toronto Raptors are on the road as they close an early, not to mention rare, two-game set with the Miami Heat Monday night. These teams met on Saturday in Miami, with the Heat earning their first win of the season by picking up a 112-109 victory to draw first blood in the season series.
Toronto dropped their second straight as they were unable to come up with the victory on the road against the Heat in the opening game of this two-game set. The Raptors fell to 1-2 on the season and entered Sunday two games behind the Celtics for the top spot in the division.
In Saturday’s game, Toronto trailed most of the way as they were down five after the opening quarter, by 21 at the half and by 24 three minutes into the second half before rallying to make a game of it. The Raptors cut the deficit to nine after three quarters but couldn’t get closer than three down the stretch, with that coming in the final minute. Toronto shot 42.5% from the field, including 14 of 39 from beyond the arc, and lost the rebounding battle 44-37 in the contest.
Miami nearly let a big lead slip away in the game Saturday but managed to hang on for their first win of the season. The Heat look to sweep the two-game series and even their record on the year as they are 1-2, 1.5 games behind the Hawks and Wizards for the top spot in the Southeast Division entering Sunday.
The Raptors have to show that they can have success on the road this season as they come in 0-2 as the visiting team. After seeing how Miami controlled most of the contest Saturday, you have to give them the upper hand in this contest as well.
