But they picked up a big win Sunday night as they trounced the Pacers 110-87, their biggest margin of victory this season.

Analysis: While the Raptors have been one of the most disappointing teams in the league all season long, I think they are going to cover tonight’s spread against a Bobcats team that has also struggled immensely over their last two games, including their atrocious loss to Minnesota their last time out.

I like the Raptors and the Over in this contest BetOnline NBA sports betting enthusiasts.
