The Pacers lost their third in row, falling to the Raptors, 117-102.  A.J. Price scored 8 points in 19 minutes on 3-7 shooting.  Chris Bosh led the way for Toronto with 26.  The loss dropped the Pacers to 16-32, they’ll host the Raptors Tuesday night, in the second half of a home and home.

The Pistons’ struggles continued in Detroit, as they fell to the Magic, 91-86.  Richard Hamilton scored 14 points on 5-15 shooting, and Ben Gordon scored 5 points on 2-11 shooting, as he works his way back from a groin injury.  Charlie Villanueva was a scratch with back spasms.  The Pistons will visit New Jersey on Tuesday night…that should help.

The Celtics blew an 11 point 4th quarter lead, falling the Lakers 90-89.   Boston had the ball and the lead with 27 seconds remaining, but Paul Pierce was whistled for a questionable offensive foul, which gave the Lakers the ball.  Moments later Kobe Bryant would hit  a jumper from the key to give L.A. the lead.   Boston ran a play for Ray Allen at the buzzer but his three was no good.  Ray scored just 7 points on 2-10 shooting…tough night.  The Celtics will visit Caron Butler and the Wizards Monday night.
