On December 15, 2014 I had the pleasure of seeing the Toronto Raptors take on the Orlando Magic. The raptors started strong getting off to a 17-12 lead in the first 7 minutes and the Magic had to take a timeout after Landry fields made a behind the back pass to Amir Johnson who finished inside off a fast break. Raptors ended the first quarter up 28-23.

James johnson opened up the second quarter strong with a ferocious dunk but by the 8:44 mark the raptors had only extended their league to 4, 38-34. Magic went on a run to go up 44-42 with 3:50 left in the second and extended their lead to 8 at halftime as the Raptors trailed 52-44.

Toronto stormed back in the third quarter out scoring the Magic 27-13 highlighted by the killer crossover by Kyle Lowry to get Landry Fields open in the corner for 3.

The Raptors led 78-72 with 8:23 left in the 4th quarter and continued strong down the stretch as they went on to win 95-82.
