If they have no answer for Siakam all series AND Kawhi really takes control we could legitimately win this thing.
Still a bajillion x-factors. Cousins looked good off the bench today and probably sees his minutes go up as he gets some stamina back and he can run the floor again in transition. So he can change Pascal's effectiveness. Durant is another obvious one with his length.
Just gonna enjoy every win, one at a time.

Man bandwagons are the best. That was fun! None of this watching a team all year just to be constantly let down over and over stuff. Just get to the good part and enjoy sports for once!
In other news, good on the NHL for taking a week off so the whole nation could switch sports. Everyone I've talked to that follows sports is all in on basketball at the moment. And to be honest, the more I've watched the more I understand and the more I understand the more I've appreciated the sport. NHWho?
less to do with the sport and more to do with the rooting interest...only Canadian team in the league.
that being said I have watched more than 10 mins of basketball for the first time in my life
I'd recommend everyone to watch the American ABC broadcast as opposed to our trash Canadian broadcast team. So glossy and a million times better, commentators being the huge edge. Mike Breen, Jeff van gundy, and mark Jackson are as good as it gets. I physically can't listen to Matty Devlin call guys by their first names and say "From [INSERT RANDOM CANADIAN CITY]!" when somebody hits a three. The only annoying thing is Mike Breen pronounces the second T in Toron-To but it's a small price to pay to get away from Sportsnet.

I switched to ABC early on. The Sportsnet broadcast was terrible.
I preferred the picture on Sportsnet. The picture on abc(shaw 200) looked like it was tuned down. I don't really care about the commentators, I had it quite low so my son could sleep.
That was a very enjoyable game, the only thing unpleasant was it looked during the anthem like some moron at the game was wearing an Oilers jersey. Wrong sport and wrong team, it's even more out of place then wearing an Oilers jersey to Lake Louise.

Siakam was just incredible! That block he had on Green was just soooo satisfying. Siakam has been a gift that keeps on giving this season, what a ####ing stud!

Hell ya man jump aboard! This raptors team has been a treat to watch all year. Enjoy the ride!
Very professional performance. It was very much a must win game if they want to win the series because of the Warriors layoff. Gasol with probably his best game as a Raptor and if he can keep up even 80% of that then they'll have more than a chance to win.

I found that ABC was a good 5-10 Secs behind the Sportsnet feed, and the picture quality on ABC was terrible.

I agree and the commentating on ABC didn’t do some of the raptors plays justice. Like the Siakam block for example deserved a much better call. That block was incredible
