"We are back for week 10 of the Top 10 Raptors Plays of the Week, as Toronto heads into the All-Star break with a 32-23 record after only winning 30 games all of last season. It's been a tough limp into the All-Star break with a bunch of double-digit leads being thrown by the Raptors, and of course, the record should be better, but let's take a moment to appreciate that Toronto is currently in a fight for a top 4 seed in the Eastern Conference. The week kicked off with one of the thrown leads at home against the Minnesota Timberwolves, to the Chicago Bulls game that was nationally televised for the Americans for some reason, to a Super Bowl Sunday victory against a familiar foe, and finally an embarrassing blowout loss against the top-seeded Pistons at home."
"Yes, it's yet another entry of the 2014 San Antonio Spurs beautiful game ball movement, as the Toronto Raptors open up the Top 10 Plays of the Week on the first possible day (we usually upload on Wednesday, so every Wednesday night is a recycle of a new week) with their first bucket being an offensive possession that touches everybody's hands and they work their way into the paint with some nice bounce passes, and Collin Murray-Boyles' first touch of the possesion ends up being the last one as he's able to finish off a possesion that could put a tear into a basketball fans eyes."
"We follow up with our number nine entry being the second bucket of the week's opener as Collin Murray-Boyles is yet again a part of the highlight, this time for his hustle as the rebound is just so awesome the way he runs into it, and the assist mid air is even better for an RJ Barrett catch and shoot knockdown three. The opening two possessions gave CMB the momentum to have a solid night of 13 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block."
Toronto enters the All-Star break with a 32-23 record, improving from 30 wins last season while competing for a top-four Eastern Conference seed despite inconsistent play. The team frequently surrendered double-digit leads during the recent stretch, producing mixed outcomes that include a blown lead at home to the Minnesota Timberwolves and an embarrassing home blowout loss to the top-seeded Pistons. Week highlights include a nationally televised game versus the Chicago Bulls and a Super Bowl Sunday victory over a familiar opponent. Collin Murray-Boyles delivered notable individual moments with a finished possession and an airborne assist, finishing one game with 13 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block.
