Toronto is 5-1 in the preseason with two wins over Boston, which is 1-6 in the preseason.

And the Raptors are apparently going to spike the ball on that.

A fan wore a Celtics jersey to an event for Raptors season-ticket holders, and Raptors CEO Tim Leiweke called him out from on stage.

“Where’s that guy with the Celtics jersey?” Leiweke said. “How’s that preseason going for you?

What do you expect from a team that has never had a true title contender?

Hey, Raptors fans / management can't afford not to care about victories in the pre-season; they'll take their success where they can get it.
You’ll have to excuse my lengthiness—the reason I dread writing letters is because I am so apt to get to slinging wisdom & forget to let up. Thus much precious time is lost.

Kelly Olynyk now plays for the Boston Celtics.  That reduced the the number of hardcore Raptors fans by 25%.

I'm not taking off my Celtics jersey in that situation even if it's Ray's, lol. Then again I don't see why I'd be wearing a Celtic Jersey to a Raptors season holder ticket event, but still. Depart from me Ahmadi I did not no you!

And Anthony Bennett on the Cavs reduced it by another 25 percent. Once Wiggins goes anywhere other than Toronto they are screwed
