Raps gotta win both home games. Winning on Sunday first is a must. Can't afford a split at home and expect to go into Milwaukee and win in an elimination Game 5.

 

I was waiting for some guy off Sportsnet in the pre-game show to give me that level of analytical insight. Thanks for ruining it!

[Abomination]

They said 93% of teams that go up 2-0 win the series.

 

Let's make a lot of people in Vegas very unhappy!

[Abomination]

Steph missed a free throw! He's human after all!

[Abomination]

Lol, Bell just missed an absolutely wide open, breakaway dunk!

 

He's going to be hearing about that one for a long time.

Portland’s chances in the series were overrated. Lillard is a chucker

GS has completely broken their spirit in the second half.

[jays4life19]

It's game time fellas.

[Abomination]

I really think we should have started Ibaka and Gasol together, then alternated switching them off every 4 minutes or something.

 

Now FFS guys, PUSH THE DAMN BALL!

[jays4life19]

Damn that's a solid start.

[Abomination]

Damn that's a solid start.

 

I don't necessarily like that Siakam drive where he's way out to the side and has to use the bank shot, but I love that we're pushing it and not letting them get set.

Yes yes but more importantly it does not look like we fear the deer tonight.

[Abomination]

Gasol and Siakam are on a mission.

[Boxcar]

Screens are illegal for the Raptors now.

[Boxcar]

Gasol is a completely different player so far. Wow, he is playing amazingly well

[Orgfiller]

Great start, Gasol really set the pace for the entire team early on.

[Abomination]

That was an amazing start. This is the energy and pace we need to play with. Rest guys more frequently for short periods if needed, but bring it!

[Orgfiller]

He tends to be incredibly efficient on those on anyone other than Giannis so I can live with it.

[Carlos Danger]

Leonard hurt?

[Boxcar]

Holy f*** @ that Middleton flop

[Orgfiller]

FVV is still garbage. He cannot keep getting minutes.

Was just about to post something similar..

[Orgfiller]

That was a whole bunch of steps, unreal that they keep missing that call.

[Boxcar]

They really need to start calling these blatant travels. Why doesn't Giannis just run the ball down the court without dribbling?

[Abomination]

That was a whole bunch of steps, unreal that they keep missing that call.

 

It's funny how the players who need the help the least receive it the most.

[Abomination]

Tomorrow's NBA game the refs (not in the game) will be live tweeting about calls and things. That should be interesting.

[Carlos Danger]

Siakam is not looking good on the offensive side.

Finally

[Abomination]

Pretty sure Kawhi traveled on that, but a nice find regardless

[Orgfiller]

The effort on the glass up to now has been huge.

[Boxcar]

Pretty sure Kawhi traveled on that, but a nice find regardless

 

Well, if they aren't going to call Giannis we kinda deserve it
