Reminds me of Gretzky coaching Phoenix. I hope it translates better fir Nash.

Yup, 1981 NBA averaged 2 3P attempts/game. 2020 it is up to 34.1/game now.

I believe in the Jays.

Up 8 heading into the 4th, should be another close one. These 2 teams are very even.

Gasol is a piece of crap. Get him off the court.

This is as bad of a game as you will see a big man play .
He looks like he can’t move anymore.

That was a pretty weak offensive foul on Tatum, but he had a blatant carry go uncalled right before so it’s all good.

Not too many guys have changed the perception of themselves more than Lowry has the last couple postseasons. He’s become a heart and soul warrior after years of being viewed as a choker. Really cementing himself as the greatest Raptor of them all.

Lowry with a beast of a game. Not the most points but his all around game is amazing.

That game seemed like the Raptors were back a little. Still not as fluid as they can be, but Boston deserves credit for their game as well. These are two very good teams without a true superstar that both play excellent defense. That's as great a playoff matchup as you can probably find in the modern era.
Now it's the best of 3. Nothing in the past matters. It's time to reset and win 2 games.

Charles has guaranteed that Boston will win game 5. The Raptors cannot lose.

FFS. The reffing begins. Miss an obvious foul on Lowry, call one the other way on Brown.

And a charge somehow called against Powell on the fast break. Sure, refs. Sure. The Celtics cannot commit a foul, you see, so this all makes sense.
I don't complain about refereeing anywhere near as much in any other sport but in this league it's either arbitrary or just plain rigged.
