| Toronto, Canada (Sports Network) - The Toronto Raptors are moving in a new direction, the focus no longer on the talents of Chris Bosh, but on a collective approach to playing the game. Bosh recently joined LeBron James and Dwyane Wade in Miami, leaving a giant hole in the Raptors' front court, a 24-point and 10-rebound-per-game hole that general manager Bryan Colangelo has been working feverishly to fill. With Bosh out of the picture, the dynamics of the team will shift immensely and Colangelo |

| Toronto, Canada (Sports Network) - With a hot summer in full swing, it's no surprise that Bryan Colangelo has been busy working up a sweat. After sending Chris Bosh to the Miami Heat in a sign-and-trade deal that netted the Toronto Raptors two first round draft picks and a trade exception, Colangelo elected against rebuilding with the hopes of remaining competitive this upcoming season. The 2010 season is expected to be challenging for a Raptors team that has failed to make the postseason two y |

Bosh left last week for Miami via sign-and-trade, causing a big hole in the frontcourt, but multiple reports have the Bobcats possibly sending center Tyson Chandler and forward Boris Diaw to the Raptors for guard Jose Calderon and forward Reggie Evans.

The Raptors acquired two first-round draft picks and a trade exception from the Heat to facilitate the deal. Bosh announced Wednesday that he would join forces with Dwyane Wade to play in Miami, although there was some question as to how the five-time All-Star would arrive on the Heat - either directly through free agency or in a sign-and- trade.

It's a huge victory for the Heat, which got Wade and Bosh, a five-time All-Star with the Toronto Raptors, to agree to take less money on Wednesday so James could join them. Heat president Pat Riley was able to corral the top three stars in an unprecedented free-agent class. So while Miami is building a dynasty, Cleveland is devastated. In a |
