Summary
James Harden scored 19 of his 35 points in the final 7:08 as the Houston Rockets beat the Toronto Raptors 107-95 on Tuesday at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.Kawhi Leonard had 26 points for the 46-19 Raps, who have lost three of their last five games. Point guard Fred VanVleet has been out with a thumb injury for 14 and counting.The Raptors are also only one of two NBA teams to rank in the top seven in both offensive and defensive efficiency, per ESPN.com, and that's largely without the services of key midseason additions Marc Gasol and Jeremy Lin.Toronto has four main contenders for the Eastern crown: the Milwaukee Bucks, Boston Celtics, Philadelphia 76ers and Indiana Pacers.The Pacers and Celtics look least likely to make runs to the NBA Finals.
