The Raptors costly loss (1-3)

Now that the Raptors got their first win out of the way, they now look for win number 2 as they face the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Raptors didn't have much players scoring in double digits, which was a horrible scene to see. Raptors rookie Terrence Ross had a much better game this time around scoring 10 points, 2 rebounds and 1 steal. Raptors Andrea Bargnani looked like he was in form from a breakout season last year, scoring 16 points and 6 rebounds. The Thunder established themselves in being the top team in the western conference so it wasn't surprising most of the team scored pretty well. Thunder's Serge Ibaka had a nice game, scoring 17 points, 4 rebounds and 2 blocks. Raptor's player of the game is Jonas Valanciunas scoring 18 points, 6 rebounds and 1 assist. Thunder's player of the game was Russell Westbrook scoring 19 points, 8 assists and 1 block. On a bad note for the Raptors, point guard Kyle Lowry was injured on a play that sprained his ankle. This was yet again another blowout except that this margin of lost was much worse, as the Thunder take this one 108-88. Toronto's next opponent is against the Dallas Mavericks.
