Raptors Win Season Opener
Posted on October 31st, 2007 by
The Toronto Raptors opened up the 2007-2008 season with a win at home against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Raptors led most of the game, at one point by as much as 22 points in the third quarter, but the Sixers battled back to within 90-89 with a few minutes left in the fourth quarter. That run was quickly cooled down by the second year star, Andrea Bargnani, who sank two free throws followed by a four point play and the Raptors never looked back.
The Toronto Raptors all star forward, Chris Bosh, scored 16 points but sat out the last minutes of the game after being worn out. The two talented point guards, TJ Ford, and Jose Calderonboth picked up the slack with solid performances.
