Dwayne Casey is December's Coach Of The Month?

You would think with the trade of the raptors superstar it would hinder a already unsuccessful raptors team , but as of lately the raptors have picked up 5 wins in a row, and Dwayne Casey, as well as the raptors, are getting a lot more respect within the league. Dwayne Casey led the raptors to an 8-6 (571%) record including road wins over the Dallas mavericks and the Oklahoma city thunder. the six road wins Toronto posted for best in the conference in December. the raptors had 5 players account for double-digit scoring averaging on the month, and closed December winning seven of their final nine games.  Dwayne Wade, who never plays back-to-back games, suited up for tonight's match against the raptors, knowing it would be a good fight. The raptors were leading the eastern conference leaders until the 4th quarter, but had lost the lead late with the final score being 102-97.
