But certainly Morey’s tweet could have also been interpreted as a shot at the Raptors —Morey’s way of saying, “Yes, these same Raptors beat my Rockets by 16 points a couple of weeks back. But, see, they’re actually not that good.” It’s been fair enough to question the realness of the Raptors of late. Before Saturday’s 112-78 win over the Hawks, Toronto’s NBAers slouched through a pair of intermittent efforts in losses to the Knicks and Pacers. After leading by 28 points at halftime the Raptors used the third quarter to increase their advantage to 41. Valanciunas had 12 points in the third frame alone, when the Raptors combined for 10 assists on 13 field-goal attempts.
