A couple of years ago it seemed like this Raptors team was on the rise. They had a disappointing year last season, and are again out of the gate slow at just 6-5. They have managed just a 2-2 mark at home and just haven't been able to put teams away. Actually Toronto has a negative scoring margin in their home games, marked reserved for mediocre teams not good ones. The Nets have made a lot of changes and they are playing hard every night. They won their last road game at Atlanta to give the Hawks their first home setback of the season and played Miami to within five on the road, and they recorded a double-digit win at Washington. The separation between these teams is slim for now, and I'll grab the points here and go with the Nets.
