Before the season started, I stated that "I believe there are a few keys IF the Raptors are to get somewhere in the 45 win range – which would likely place them in the 4 to 6 spot in the East". This update checks keeps statistics in mind and reviews the Raptors’ progress. So far,…
"I'd be happy if we didn't make a trade. I think we're playing well and the different guys we have at each position are doing well, so I don't know if we need one," Bosh said after his sparkling performance in Sunday's NBA All-Star Game.
Chris Bosh can thank Kevin Garnett for a happy homecoming. On Saturday, Garnett gave East coach Stan Van Gundy some subtle advice. "He said, 'Hey, play me the first time out each half. It's Chris' hometown, so give him a lot of minutes," Van Gundy said. "So I was glad we were able to do…
No, there's no "Chris Bosh got robbed" headline today, even though it would've made sense to give the hometown boy some hardware. And I'm pretty sure they would've given it to Nowitzki before Bosh anyway since that's just the how the NBA likes to roll - predictable. It was nice to see Bosh nail some…
The folks at DimeMag could've pulled DeMar DeRozan over and talked to him for hours on end about the intricacies of hyping something up and then letting everyone down. Not so with Chris Bosh, the scrum was bigger and we tried to get the questions you asked in. Once again, thanks to DimeMag for taking…
“I’m a little disappointed, especially with it being so close but it happens,” he said. “I’ve got a long time in the league, hopefully I get a chance to do the dunk contest again, try to redeem myself.”

A between-the-legs left-handed windmill gave him a 42 which was good enough for second after Robinson, who got the better score because of the height…
Steve doesn't agree and you can listen to him and his rebuttal at WhoTheMan.com. He's up against the DinoNationBlogger who, as great as a guy he is, is out to lunch if he thinks Bosh is worthy of having his numbered retired based on his accomplished as of today.
General manager Bryan Colangelo, however, has always done something during his tenure in T.O., whether it was engineering a trade in the days leading up to the deadline or pulling the trigger that day, such as last year's acquisition of Patrick O'Bryant in a three-team trade involving Will Solomon.
DeMar DeRozan wins the dunk-in, defeating Eric Gordon with 61% of the public vote.
The boys over at Dime Magazine caught up with DeMar at the 2010 All-Star game.
One of the things that stood out against Philadelphia were the Raptors' 26 fastbreak points. Many of the points were the result of a convenient rebound combined with an aggressive mentality to run. We examine two such instances.
