Boucher was 3-for-19 from the field in just 28 minutes — 2-for-10 from three-point range. “It’s kind of strange,” Raptors coach Nick Nurse said this week. Boucher had nine points off the bench Wednesday as the Raptors almost clawed back from a 19-point hole to steal a win. He wasn’t himself, the juice was out of his game, there was no energy, no spark and no discernible impact. It is to Nurse’s credit that he kept running Boucher out there, maybe not for long stretches but for enough time to make Boucher feel he wasn’t totally forgotten.
