The Toronto Raptors right now managed to overtake the Chicago Bulls for the fifth-best record in the NBA Eastern Conference after winning seven of their last ten games. After having their five-game winning streak snapped by the Miami Heat, the Raptors immediately bounced back with a 10-point victory over the Atlanta Hawks. A win here will help them solidify their 5th spot in the conference and a fighting chance to overtake the Philadelphia 76ers if they manage to drop their last remaining games. The Raptors are very much well known to win most of their home games with the help of their home crowd.
