NBA Schedule: 7 Must See Raptor Games

Sachin AroraAug 14, 2010

The Raptors will certainly have a challenging, but exciting season coming up with the departure of Chris Bosh.

The offense will be more open and will be inconsistent for sure. Once they develop some consistency they could end up being a good team.

They will definitely surprise many people to say the least.

Here are the seven games that you have to tune in to as a Raptor fan.

No. 7- October 27th, Vs New York

1 of 7
DALLAS - FEBRUARY 13:  DeMar DeRozan #10 of the Toronto Raptors goes up for a dunk during the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest on All-Star Saturday Night, part of 2010 NBA All-Star Weekend at American Airlines Center on February 13, 2010 in Dallas, Texas. NOTE TO

Who wouldn't want to see the home opener?

After anxiously waiting in the offseason, fans will certainly be pumped to watch the first Raptor game of the season.

No. 6- February 25th, Vs Phoenix

Hedo Turkoglu, watch out. This day won't be fun for you.

February 25th marks the day that Hedo Turkoglu returns to Toronto, and you can bet it will be wild.

Everybody should turn in just to watch Turkoglu get screamed at by Raptor fans.

Should be great fun.

No. 5- November 13th, @ Miami

3 of 7

Watching the Raptors against Chris Bosh for the first time is something you cannot miss.

Bosh vs. Bargnani will be an awesome match-up to watch, and I'm sure the Raptors will have motivation to play extra hard in this one.

Whenever the Lakers come to town it's always a hot ticket. The Raptors always seem to make it worth the price.

When the Lakers came to town last year the Raptors took it to the wire and squeezed a victory in what was one of the best games of the season.

Kobe Bryant coming to town is always fun to watch.

Who would want to miss a game against the defending champs?

No. 3- March 4th, @ New Jersey

5 of 7
EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ - MAY 04:  Jose Calderon #8 of the Toronto Raptors reacts after a three pointer against the New Jersey Nets in Game Six of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals during the 2007 NBA Playoffs on May 4, 2007 at the Continental Airlines Are

Now you may be wondering what is so special about this game.

It will be played in the O2 Arena in London, for the first ever international NBA game.

It will be back-to-back games against the Nets in London.

It will attract many international viewers for the Raptors since this game will most likely be on global TV.

Let's hope the Raptors put on their best show.

No. 2- April 3rd, Vs Orlando

6 of 7
BOSTON - MAY 28:  Vince Carter #15 of the Orlando Magic looks on from the bench dejected after they lost 96-84 against the Boston Celtics in Game Six of the Eastern Conference Finals during the 2010 NBA Playoffs at TD Garden on May 28, 2010 in Boston, Mas

Watching Vince Carter come to Toronto is always fun. He always seems pissed off, but that's probably because he gets booed every time he gets the ball.

Vince Carter will always be booed no matter what, and I kind of feel bad for the guy.

That doesn't mean I'm not going to watch.

No. 1- February 17, Vs Miami

7 of 7

Why would it be anything else? The return of Chris Bosh is without a doubt the game that pops out the most on the Raptors calander.

It will be weird for Bosh to be on the other side of the bench in the, having the fans cheer against him.

Will he be booed or cheered? It will be great to see the fans emotions along with Bosh's.

You'd have to be crazy to miss this one.
