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
Celtics return home for East-leading Raptors
 

The Toronto Raptors will visit the Boston Celtics on Wednesday night in a matchup that was once expected to be a battle of the top teams in the Eastern Conference.

The Raptors (33-12) have done their part, leading the conference with the best record in the NBA. The Celtics, meanwhile, are fifth in the East at 25-18, seven games behind.

The clash in Boston comes with the teams moving in opposite directions.

The Raptors have won five in a row after squandering a 23-point lead and surviving double overtime to defeat the Wizards 140-138 in Washington on Sunday. Kawhi Leonard scored 41 points.

The Celtics are returning from a 0-3 road trip that ended Monday with a 109-102 loss to the Brooklyn Nets, a team Boston had defeated in their 10 previous meetings.

The Celtics were without guard Kyrie Irving on Monday because of a tight right quadriceps, but he said he will the Raptors. He suffered the injury in a 105-103 loss to the Orlando Magic on Saturday. Celtics guard Marcus Smart also missed the game Monday because he was ill.

The season series between the Raptors and Celtics is tied at 1, with each team winning at home. The Raptors won 113-101 on Oct. 19, and the Celtics won 123-116 in overtime Nov. 16.

Toronto is 14-8 against Boston over the past five seasons and has not lost the season series since 2012-13. The teams have accounted for 12 Atlantic Division titles since 2004-05, with Boston winning seven.

After the Celtics blew a 12-point halftime lead in losing in Orlando, Irving called out his team.

"The young guys don't know what it takes to be a championship-level team," Irving said. "What it takes every day. And if they think it is hard now, what do they think it will be like when we're trying to get to the finals?"

He said the team must learn to play when there are high expectations for them to succeed, unlike last season when they made the Eastern finals despite an injury to Irving.

"We had nothing to lose and everybody could play free and do whatever they wanted and nobody had any expectations," Irving said.

Irving expanded on his comments Monday saying, "The responsibility goes all the way around."

"Part of that is learning but also teaching and then explaining what it actually means to come in and appreciate your job and have a goal in hand that is actually a championship," he said. "You know, you've never gone about it in your career, you've never done it, and now you come into a season where the expectations are higher than anything."

The Raptors, meanwhile, are trying to develop a killer instinct and not allow big leads to slip away as they did in Washington.

"It's just focus," Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry said.

"We shouldn't lose focus. We have to stay focused on every possession. We lost a little focus and our offense starts to dictate our defense. We can't do that. We have to let our defense dictate our offense."

The problem was the other way around for the Celtics on Monday. They trailed by 27 points with 8:55 remaining in the fourth quarter before closing strong.

"I just told the team that I really appreciate the way those guys played in the fourth quarter," said Celtics coach Brad Stevens. "We were guarding for three quarters (Monday). We chose one of the middle ones to take off. The third-quarter defense was awful."
