An inadvertent elbow by Antawn Jamison may have put an end to Chris Bosh's career as a Toronto Raptor. For more on last night's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, check out Fear the Sword, Cavs: The Blog, Ball Don't Lie and Raptors Republic.
Former Raptor Anthony Parker was the 'special guest' star for the Cavs.
Tonight's contest won't be any easier, as the Raptors host a Boston Celtics team that should be motivated following a loss to the New York Knicks. Let's see if Andrea Bargnani can step up in the same manner as his countryman Danilo Gallinari, who dropped a career-high 31 points on the Celts. Be sure to check out CelticsBlog and Celtics Hub.
Of course, the Raptors won't need to win another game if the Chicago Bulls continue to lose.
T.Jose Caldeford's Chris Black provides a quick playoff race primer and builds a case for Reggie Evans to start in place of an injured Bosh.
The Raptors remain ensconced in the 18th spot in the latest edition of the SB Nation NBA Power Rankings.

Yes
I voted yes but not because I think Turk and Bargs will be so great. It’s just that, looking at the games left for TO and CHI, looking at their current records, and considering TO has the tie-breaker: realistically TO just needs to beat Detroit and the Knicks to get in. Should be doable, even without Bosh.
The Real Reason Evans Should Start Tonight
Not because of some bean counters numbers or wet dream.
Evans should start because he matches up well with Perkins. They can both bang each other around while the other eight starters play basketball.
Finally some logic
Thats why Jay will start AJ or RN…a simple game of match ups !!!! Jay does his own thing you know the 3 headed monster :)
