Bosh Pushes Raptors Past Bucks

All-star's 32 points, 11 rebounds fuel victory

Share

(Newser) – Chris Bosh did his part to end Toronto's slump. He would like the fans to do theirs. Bosh had 32 points and 11 rebounds and the Raptors ended a three-game losing streak with a 111-93 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night. Anthony Parker added 18 points for the Raptors, who have struggled despite clinching a playoff spot last week.  

Toronto lost 15 of its previous 21 games. Fans booed the Raptors after their last home loss and didn't make much noise Wednesday night. "It was quiet. Could you hear yourself talk?" Bosh asked reporters. "We're getting ready for the playoffs. I'm just saying I'm excited. I don't know if anybody else is excited, but I'm excited. I'm not waiting for next week."
