Home! Sweet Home!

It's game night! The Toronto Raptors take on the Denver Nuggets. Don't expect Denver to sit back and let this one slip them by. They plan to attack the Raptors tonight after losing the last two games against the Boston Celtics and the Charlotte Bobcats.

If the Nuggests win, George Karl will get his 1000th career victory courtesy of the Raptors. Raps may be known for allowing teams to break records against them, but you can bet that they won't let a Nuggets' win come that easy!

Andrea Bargnani is on a roll right now so we're hoping for a big night from 'Il Mago'. Both Kenyon Martin and Chris Andersen are injured which can only leave Bargnani one choice... to have another break-out game!

Raptors as of late, have not been the best perimeter defenders. That being said, the Nuggets are a 3-point shooting team that can be quite dangerous when allowed. Let's hope the Raps learned from the last couple of games and lock down the perimeter. "Not in our house!"

Toronto has lost five of the last seven games including a nail-biter vs. the Knicks which ended in a 113-110 loss.

Tonight's tip-off starts at 7pm ET on TSN.

Unfortunately, The Raptors Fanatic Zone will be absent for tonight's contest; however, will be back to cheer on our team Wednesday, 15th vs. the Chicago Bulls.

Key Notes:

Raptors Peja Stojakovic is questionable for tonight and Carmelo Anthony is listed as game-time decision.

Denver is undefeated in the past six meetings with the Dino's. Here's hoping the Raptors break that record tonight!
