After a thrilling first round defeat, the Raptors entered the season as favourites to win the Atlantic division. What they werent expected to do was lead the entire Eastern Conference, a position they currently find themselves in. So what makes this Raptors team so different? Why is it that theyve not only lived up to their expectations, but are currently exceeding them? The third season of Open Gym has arrived and with its arrival comes an in-depth look at a youthful Toronto Raptors squad thats been built to be the finest in the franchises 20 year history.Were sure youve heard during broadcasts that the Raptors are a tight knit group of players, partially seen Drakes interactions with the team and fawned over how adorable Kyle Lowrys son is, but with Open Gym youll get chance to experience that all first hand.To mark the launch of the third season of Open Gym, Bell invited fans to attend the November 28th match-up between the Raptors and the Dallas Mavericks. Fans were treated to a private box like experience on the "Fan Deck" where they got to watch the game before receiving a scrumptious slice of banana bread to close the night out. Unfortunately, that was the only sweet ending to the night, as the Raps did fall to the Mavs 106-102. But that banana bread though...Another Raptors fan attending the Open Gym event, Paul Jewell, offered his view on how the Raptors will perform this season, while also underling the "wolf pack" like personality of the teams fan base. "Were gonna shock a lot of people" says Paul. In some ways even though the Raptors fan base extends from ocean to ocean, its a tight knit group, just like the team they support.Long time fans may share the same us against the world mentality as the current raptors squad, but on Tuesday December 2nd they should prepare themselves for reinforcements. As once Open Gym airs, the whole country is going to know exactly why these 2014-15 Raptors are so special.Catch the premiere of the third season of Open Gym on December 2nd at 1 pm EST on TSN4.

BARCELONA, Spain -- Cristiano Ronaldo scored two long-range goals to help Real Madrid rout Osasuna 4-0 on Saturday and stay in the Spanish league title chase while resting several first-choice players for its European clash at Bayern Munich. With Gareth Bale recovering from the flu and Karim Benzema on the bench, all of Madrids attack went through Ronaldo on the left flank. And the Ballon dOr winner didnt disappoint by unleashing two similar blasts after cutting inside to put the ball on his right boot and lift his league-leading tally to 30 goals through 35 rounds. Madrid provisionally closed to within three points of leader Atletico Madrid before it visits Valencia on Sunday, when Barcelona, one point behind Madrid, hosts Villarreal. Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti also gave valuable rest to defender Pepe and midfielder Xavi Alonso to prepare for its visit to Bayern on Tuesday in the second leg of their Champions League semifinal. Madrid won the first leg 1-0. "Everything he tried turned out well for us," Ancelotti said about Ronaldo. "We could rest some players and played a good game, even if it wasnt a very intense one." Elsewhere, Getafes 1-0 win over Malaga condemned last-place Real Betis to relegation even before it fell 1-0 at home to Real Sociedad, while Rayo Vallecano scored three times in the second half for a 3-0 win at 10-man Granada. Osasuna lined up to provide Madrid a guard of honour before the match as the hosts paraded their recently won Copa del Rey trophy at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. Ronaldo then went to work chalking up his 29th league goal in the sixth minute when he unleashed a trademark blast from outside the area that took a slight deflection off defender Damia Abella before falling just inside the far upright. He looked to get his teammates involved, and set up scoring chances for Sergio Ramos, Marcelo and Alvaro Morata. But it fell to Ronaldo to start the seconnd half as he had the first, with Osasunas outclassed defence letting him again dribble to near the elbow of the area before he launched a shot into the top corner of the net in the 52nd.dddddddddddd "Both goals came at the start of each half and that complicated things for us," Osasuna coach Javi Gracia said. "They are both more merit of Ronaldo than my defences fault. Its true Damia touches the first strike and that gives it an effect, but the second shot is unstoppable." Sergio Ramos headed in a third goal in the 60th and Ronaldo went to the bench seconds later to an ovation from the crowd. Dani Carvajal headed home Isco Alarcons lobbed pass to cap the lopsided victory in the 83rd. Osasuna, which lost Raoul Loe and Emiliano Armenteros to injuries, remained three points above the relegation zone along with Getafe. Forward Adrian Colunga scored what proved to be the winner seven minutes into the game at Getafe from a pass by Ciprian Marica, who left his side a man down from the 37th for a second yellow card. But Malaga couldnt take advantage of the extra man and itself lost a player when Marcos Angeleri was sent off for a second booking in the 76th. "This victory is huge," Getafe coach Cosmin Contra said. "You saw team spirit today. We are still alive." Sociedad added to Betis misery by winning thanks to Carlo Velas 54th-minute penalty kick after Juan Carlos Perez fouled him in the area. Sociedad strengthen its hold on sixth place and cemented its Europa League berth for next season. Rayo rose into ninth place with only one loss in its last 10 matches. Rayo held Granada in check in the first half before Yacine Brahimis dismissal for a second yellow card in the 51st turned the match in the visitors favour. All the matches observed a minute of silence before kickoff for Barcelonas former coach, Tito Vilanova, who died on Friday after a battle with cancer.
