KEY GAME INFORMATION
TORONTO: LAST SEASON: 59-23, lost in Eastern Conference semifinals.
COACH: Nick Nurse (first season).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Kyle Lowry (16.2 ppg, career-high, 5.6 rpg), G Danny Green (8.6 ppg, San Antonio), F Kawhi Leonard (16.2 ppg in nine games, San Antonio), F Serge Ibaka (112.6 ppg), C Jonas Valanciunas (12.7 ppg).
KEY LOSSES: G DeMar DeRozan, F Jakob Poeltl
KEY ADDITIONS: Leonard, Green, C Greg Monroe
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Leonard will be under intense scrutiny in his first season with Toronto, and his last before free agency. A former Defensive Player of the Year and NBA Finals MVP, Leonard was limited to nine games last season because of a thigh injury, and his relationship with the Spurs soured during his lengthy rehab. The Raptors will hope Leonard likes his time north of the border enough to sign a long-term deal with Toronto next summer.
OUTLOOK: A lot has changed since Toronto set a franchise record with 59 wins last season. The Raptors fired
COACH of the Year Dwane Casey and replaced him with Nurse, a first-time NBA head
COACH. Toronto also traded franchise icon DeMar DeRozan and C Jakob Poeltl to acquire Leonard and Green from the Spurs. The Raptors need to brush aside the issue of Leonard's future and use the regular season to get comfortable together so they can focus on postseason success.
BOSTON: LAST SEASON: 55-27, lost in Eastern Conference finals.
COACH: Brad Stevens (sixth season).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Jaylen Brown (14.5 ppg), G Kyrie Irving (24.4 ppg), F Jayson Tatum (13.9 ppg), F Gordon Hayward (2.0 ppg; played one game last season), C Al Horford (12.9 ppg).
KEY LOSSES: G Shane Larkin, C Greg Monroe
KEY ADDITIONS: F Robert Williams, G Brad Wanamaker, G P.J. Dozier
PLAYERS TO WATCH: All eyes are on Hayward coming off his surgery and rehab from the gruesome left ankle injury he suffered in the season opener last season. After nearly a year away from playing 5-on-5 basketball, he says he's back to 100 percent. The same is true for point guard Kyrie Irving following a pair of surgeries on his left knee that caused him to miss the end of the regular season and playoffs. Irving's also pledged his allegiance to Boston, saying recently that he intended to re-sign with the Celtics in 2019.
OUTLOOK: With LeBron James now in the Western Conference, the Celtics enter this season as the presumptive favorites in the East. The injuries to Hayward and Irving gave Brown and Tatum a chance to shine and both young emerged as budding stars. After re-signing reserve guard Marcus Smart, Boston enters the season with a roster that's nearly fully intact from a year ago. The Celtics were one of the league's top defensive teams a last season and are expected to be there again under the defensive-minded Stevens. The challenge for the sixth-year
COACH will be getting this talented group to share the ball.
PREVIEW
Raptors look to end skid in Boston
 

BOSTON -- The Toronto Raptors, saddled with their first two-game losing streak of the season, visit TD Garden Friday night for the second battle of the season between the teams picked to finish atop the Eastern Conference.

The Raptors (12-3) lost both games at home after a 12-1 start - falling 126-110 to the New Orleans Pelicans before losing on a buzzer-beater to the Detroit Pistons and former Toronto coach Dwane Casey Wednesday night.

Casey, of course, was fired by the Raptors after a playoff disaster against the Cleveland Cavaliers despite winning NBA coach of the year honors. He returned to Toronto with the Pistons and his team earned him a measure of revenge when Reggie Bullock hit a floater at the buzzer.

The Celtics, easy winners over the Bulls Wednesday night at the start of a stretch of three home games in four nights, are just 8-6 on the season and hope to even the season series with the Raptors.

Back on Oct. 19, Kawhi Leonard delivered 31 points, 10 rebounds and three assists in Toronto's 113-101 home win over Boston.

VegasINSIDER.com, in its latest odds, has the Celtics at 9-1 odds and the Raptors 10-1 to beat the Golden State Warriors in the NBA Finals. Both are listed at 9-4 to win the East.

Kyrie Irving came through with 17 points, six rebounds and seven assists in Wednesday's win over the Bulls. The Celtics are 4-1 at home, while the Raptors come in 5-1 on the road as they begin a four-game road trip.

"Coming into the season we were all expecting that we would just kind of take over," Boston's Al Horford said after Wednesday's win, "and we're very dangerous. I feel like we've been humbled a little bit. We're in a position now where we have an opportunity to start building that. And we have to do it every night. If we're able to do that, we'll have a chance to be special."

The Raptors reeled off 12 wins in their first 13 games before they, too, were humbled -- blowing a 19-point lead Wednesday.

They had trouble from behind the arc in these two losses -- missing nine of their first 10 3-pointers in both games and finishing 4 of 20 from deep in Wednesday's loss.

Toronto was guilty of eight turnovers and scored just 16 points in the fourth quarter against the Pistons.

"Play better defense, execution on the offensive end, a lot of things could have happened, (that) we be different," Kyle Lowry said after the loss to Casey and the Pistons. "Just was a tough game for us."

Manpower continues to be a problem for the Raptors. Danny Green (lower back tightness) went down during the game Wednesday, while Norman Powell (shoulder) and C.J. Miles (adductor) were already out. Serge Ibaka (right knee soreness) was a late scratch.

Coach Nick Nurse said he expected Ibaka back for Friday night's game.

Marcus Morris missed Wednesday's game for the Celtics because of illness and was questionable for Friday.

The Celtics finish their home back-to-back when they seek revenge against the Utah Jazz Saturday night. Utah defeated Boston in Gordon Hayward's return to Salt Lake City -- part of the Celtics' poor road trip.

Boston won both TD Garden meetings with the Raptors last season, and Toronto won both games up north.
