Whatever is going on in the Raptors locker room at halftime needs to cease immediately.

The Raptors have been horrible in the third quarters of their past three games, getting outscored by a combined 78-52. That's an average deficit of almost nine points per third quarter.

The Raptors, of course, lost two of those three games, the only exception being Friday, when Vince Carter bailed them out with a late three-pointer against the Denver Nuggets.

Yesterday against the Phoenix Suns, the Raptors gave up a 15-2 run to start the third quarter and wound up losing 91-90. Neither team scored a point for more than three minutes, but when the Suns broke the goose egg, they did so with a vengeance.
