It's amazing how Bogut has such a knack for blocks despite not being as athletic as most prolific shot blockers....He just has an innate timing with it.

If Raptors make the ECF, then that is definitely a good year. The Hawks only need one win against Cleveland for it to be a successful year and they can't even do that

It's already a good year. They got past their 1st round exit hump. They have no shame losing now or against Cleveland.

Oh look Lowry showed up to a basketball game!
He actually played great (in the second half).
Good job.
Now if only Derozan would appear at some point.....
No it was not the right call.
He was in the restricted area, end of discussion. Wrong call.
In fact they would eat MIA alive too.
The only way Raptors have a chance is if DD and Lowry actually play consistently at All Star level for the entire next series.
That MIA even won a single game against the Raptors is surprising, because on paper it really shouldn't happen. The playoff performance slump DD and Lowry are in, particularly DD is in, is almost legendary now.
They are literally breaking records of bad FG% with their play. They better improve to beat MIA and at least compete against CLE.

Fuck him.
Go Raptors.
The ESPN announcers even tried to slander Canada in the half-time show saying we don't need sunscreen because we're immune to bad weather or something. Yep, apparently Canada is that foreign.... Lol.
But I guess they aren't being paid to be creative.
Jon Barry is good though. His input on the Raptors deficiencies is great.
what a clown.

I think Wade thought about stopping but he kept on bricking js so he kept on jacking till he swished one.
Like your mom calling you for dinner but you cannot go inside house yet because you just gotta make that one last fake buzzer beater with shot clock winding down in your head. And you absolutely have to make that shot no matter what because that's how we always end practices.
Edit rewathced it and he didn't even made a single one before the camera cuts to the singer.. Not even the layup directly beneath the basket
It's not surprising. Miami has playoff experience. Toronto does not. Winning a Playoff series is new to those Toronto players, and getting there was emotional and losing Game 1 was a lull they clearly have gotten over.

Whiteside hurt his right knee and is most likely done for the season. Lowry had a really good second half and Wade ran out of gas in the 4th.

Whiteside hurt? Nooooo.
Sorry man, wanted him at full strength to give the Cavs a test if the Heat advanced.
Valanciunas played really well? How's he been throughout the season? and damn, he got hurt too? =/
How did Demar do?
Valanciunas is easily the best player of the team this playoffs.
As for DeRozan.....

These refs suck ass
He's a 5th or 6th string guy on his own team. Incredible isn't it. Perimeter players are the new centers.

Plumlee is terrible. For being a center, he can't finish close to the rim for shit.

Wow, can't believe this score.
Curry back game 4 then?

Portland got some bad calls in their favor earlier. It's probably mostly even now and just a lot of bad calls.
Be stupid to bring him back because of this game. It's doubtful POR shoots 61% from 3 and has a 12 FT advantage again.
Gotcha. At least they're being consistently awful, I guess.
