The Raptors handled the Pistons, and in a way that put to rest a lot of complaints that have tossed at the feet of some of the Raptors. Kyle Lowry controlled all aspects of the game on his way to a triple-double. Serge Ibaka played as well as he did during last year’s immaculate playoff…
What to expect from Rondae Hollis-Jefferson when the Raptors are healthy?
Despite reports that the sky was falling in Raptors-land, the Raptors bounced back last week with a 2-1 record, proving that they are, in fact, still really good.

More impressively, the Raptors outscored the Jazz 77-37 at halftime, the halftime biggest lead in franchise history, and finished with a score of 130-110 against a Jazz team…
