Clippers-Raptors Preview

A favorable upcoming schedule could help the Toronto Raptors pad their slim lead for the Eastern Conference's final playoff spot. First, the Raptors merely need to show they can win a home game.

Toronto tries to avoid its first four-game home losing streak in 15 months Wednesday when it faces the Los Angeles Clippers, who have dropped 14 of 17.

The Raptors (36-37) moved 1 1/2 games ahead of Chicago for the eighth seed in the East on Tuesday after the Bulls lost 111-105 loss to Phoenix. Making the most of a relatively soft upcoming schedule with games versus the Clippers, Philadelphia and Golden State could prove vital. Toronto follows that stretch with matchups against Cleveland, Boston, Atlanta and Chicago.

"We're going to keep playing hard no matter what happens," Chris Bosh said Monday after the Raptors snapped a three-game slide with a 103-101 victory in Charlotte. "If we keep playing hard, keep fighting, we can pull out some games. The schedule is not going to get any easier for us, so we're going to have to have that same intensity."

It's uncertain whether coach Jay Triano will return Hedo Turkoglu to the starting lineup as Toronto looks to avoid its first four-game skid at Air Canada Centre since Dec. 14-31, 2008.

Turkoglu was benched for the entirety of Sunday's 97-94 loss in Miami following reports he was out on the town after missing Friday night's loss to Denver with a stomach virus. The first-year Raptor came off the bench for the first time this season Monday, when his replacement Antoine Wright scored 15 points.

"If I'm going to start off on the bench, it doesn't matter for me,'' said Turkoglu, whose 11 points against the Bobcats included a go-ahead 3-pointer with 4:24 left. "Whenever I get a chance, I'm just going to try to do my job and help the team get a W."

Whether Turkoglu starts might not matter against the slumping Clippers (27-47).

Looking for two straight road wins for the first time since mid-December, Los Angeles shot 36.8 percent from the field and opened its three-game trip Tuesday with a 107-89 loss to Milwaukee.

The Clippers, who have dropped 24 of 27 on the road, lost 100-76 in their last visit to Toronto on March 22, 2009.

With a 22-point first-half lead over the visiting Raptors on Nov. 13, Los Angeles was well on its way toward snapping a three-game home losing streak in this series. The Clippers, however, were outscored 16-0 in the final 4:50 of that matchup and lost 104-89.

Baron Davis, who had 17 points and seven assists in that loss, will miss his second straight game Wednesday due to back spasms.

On the bright side, the Clippers are getting strong performances from their frontcourt. All-Star center Chris Kaman had 17 points and 10 rebounds Tuesday, while DeAndre Jordan posted his second straight double-double off the bench with 11 points and a season high-tying 13 rebounds. Drew Gooden is averaging 19.8 points and 14.3 boards over his last four games.

Bosh, Raptors ride hot shooting touch to win over Clippers

TORONTO (NBA.com exclusive) -- With just eight games remaining, the Raptors need to learn how to put together a full 48 minutes of basketball. Luckily, against the Los Angeles Clippers, 24 minutes was enough.

Chris Bosh scored 34 points and grabbed 11 rebounds, Andrea Bargnani added 21 points and Sonny Weems was a perfect 8-for-8 from the floor as the Raptors moved one step closer to making the playoffs by taking down the Clippers 114-92.

"They went on a run and we couldn't claw our way out of it," Drew Gooden said. "They have a goal of making the playoffs this year and trying to secure that. It's a playoff game for them."

With the victory, the Raptors moved two games ahead of Chicago for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference with eight games remaining. Facing a Clippers team that had lost the night before in Milwaukee, the Raptors were the team that came out lethargic, trailing by five at the half.

"We were too laid back in the first half," Weems said of the slow start. During the halftime break, Weems said the team talked about the energy they needed to come out with in the third quarter.

"We knew we had to make adjustments and come out and play the second half correctly," Bosh said. "There wasn't much said, we just addressed the problems."

Coming out of halftime, Bosh wasted no time addressing the Clippers, scoring 15 points on 6-for-7 shooting in the third to help the Raptors take a six-point advantage into the final quarter.

"[Bosh] has a lot of moves, he's patient and he's been in this organization his whole career," Gooden said. "He's comfortable. They ran some good plays for him, some good counter plays for him."

In the fourth, it was all Raptors as the Clippers fell apart. Toronto outscored L.A. 33-17 and continued to build upon their lead, thanks in large part to Bargnani knocking down back-to-back 3-pointers and then driving to the hoop for a layup in a one-minute span. Jarrett Jack played just 6:31 minutes of the final quarter and recorded seven of his 10 assists as the Raptors shot 74 percent to the Clippers' 39 percent in the quarter.

"I thought first half we played hard and we made a little run there," Chris Kaman said. "They shot the ball really well tonight. We've got to give them credit. They deserved to win, they're fighting for that last playoff spot and they wanted it more than we did."

Kaman had 22 points and 13 rebounds, while Gooden added 17 points and 10 rebounds off of the bench as the Clippers shot 43 percent in the game to the Raptors 61 percent.

"Any team that shoots 61 percent, that's tough to beat," Gooden said.

While Bosh was the catalyst in the third and finished the game shooting 12-for-17 from the floor, it was the play of Weems that had the Clippers talking.

"Bosh hurt us the whole night, but he hurts everybody," Kaman said. "You're going to expect that from him. He got his, but we just didn't do a good job on the other guys. Weems came in and went 8-for-8. That's probably the best game he's going to have all year."

Weems was moved into the starting lineup when Hedo Turkoglu sat with a stomach illness and he has remained there since Turkoglu's return. Raptors coach Jay Triano has said he likes the energy that he brings when he starts. Scoring 17 points was an added bonus.

"I am not sure that Weems will make 8-for-8 again," Kim Hughes said. "He shot and played very well.

Asked about his hot-shooting night, the second-year swingman shrugged and said he just received open shots. But despite his nonchalance when the cameras were on him, as he watched his towels sail cleanly into the laundry basket after tossing them across the locker room, he couldn't help it.

"9-for-9, baby."
