“When you have Chris Bosh in the lineup, a lot of times you give it to him and he either creates or holds the ball and makes a play,” Raptors head coach Jay Triano said. “Right now, we’re having to make more passes each possession down the floor to find ways to score.

The Raptors are back on a roll after beating both the Knicks and the Mavericks in convincing fashion on the weekend.
