"If you're being honest with yourself, you can't say you didn't see this coming.

The season is not quite a month old and the Raptors are in the midst of a six-game losing streak that could grow to 12 if the Raps don't catch a break or two.

That's not criticism, that's the reality of the 2011-12 NBA season. Even to suggest the possibility of a 12-game skid is admittedly harsh, but it's not completely out of the realm of possibility in the Raptors' current circumstances."
