TORONTO - You probably would have to go back to Chris Bosh and Rasho Nesterovic to find a Raptors frontcourt with as much chemistry as Amir Johnson and Ed Davis currently are showing.

It starts on defence, where both players cover for each other well and provide Toronto's best interior defence combo.

Now, things are clicking on offence as well.
