Raptors put up 44 points in the first quarter! Playing with a ton of energy so far.

Really feels like this should be a 30 point game, so that it's this close going into the fourth is kinda worrying. Just win I guess.

Every time I turn the channel Wall is driving to the net and scoring. Might want to slow that down a bit, Raps.

Miles has been absolutely immense in the first two games. Those soul deflating threes he hits are beautiful.

Reminder: DeMar is unquestionably the greatest Raptor ever.

Anyway, they did well to put out the fire in that fourth, a loss would have invited the exact kind of over the top media criticism they need to avoid. With that in mind, they need to have the killer instinct now to finish this series quickly. The Wizards are devoid of leadership and are soft mentally, go to DC and sweep their asses.

I wonder if the Wizards are regretting tanking to play the Raptors in the first round.

I never bought that they were tanking, they simply are not that good a team. As I said earlier, they should have lost tonight by 30 or so if not for the Raps taking their foot off the gas. Wall and Beal can go off any game and that always makes them a team who can beat anyone, but when a guy they signed off the street three days before the playoffs is their third best player in the series, it sums up why they are in this predicament.

Here's a link



Kobe might make a great coach some day.

I actually think this Cavs team is worse than the 07 team LeBron carried to the Finals. Lue being the worst coach in the NBA, G League, Euroleague, YMCA League, or any other league, certainly contributes. I'm gaining optimism that LeBron will realize how fruitless it is to absolutely kill himself for the right to get curb stomped in the Finals, that he's 100% leaving the Cavs, and so he'll simply mail it in and let someone else go to the Finals.

Also without the refs horrible calls against Oladipo, Indiana would be winning this game.

Sad to hear that, hope he takes whatever time away from the game he needs.


Love just left the game with an injury to the same hand he broke earlier in the year and lost a big chunk of games to. Despite Cleveland winning tonight this series is close, and if Love misses even a couple games, that's a huge blow.

Clean up our turnovers and Washington can't hang with us. We've to get back to quick passing on offense.

On another note, it's infuriating to watch Gortat get away with pushing and moving screens on every possession, while Poeltl gets called for just being near people.

This is infuriating. Every call going Washington's way in the 4th.
