But, that’s also why I told you a couple weeks ago Toronto would beat them.

LOL @ Lue. He’s pissed they called a foul on Love for doing a UFC style elbow on DeRozan

IF that went in I was going to post :

That's why I like the NHL playoffs more. NHL - I don't know whats going to happen next. In the NBA I know what's going to happen next because it seems so scripted.

Just look at that sentence. Smith Green and Thompson are playing well. Who? :lol: This team wouldn't even qualify if they played out west. Or even in the ACC. And it's all Irving's fault. Little bitch broke up something good so he could chase individual glory that he delusionally thought he could have on his own.

You go too far as usual. Smith, Green, and Thompson have all been valuable role players throughout their career.

I agree he’s playing with a very bad cast and no second star, but the idea that he’s carrying non NBA caliber players is very wrong.

Irving seems to have turned out ok. The reason that the roster is fucked up is because Lebron the GM insisted that they sign guys represented by his best friends.

This roster is better than 07 by the way.

It’s pretty close to 07. This version of Love doesn’t give them much. Agree with the first part obviously. Nobody should feel bad for LeBron.

That looked like a foul on Lebron James on the rebound.

I don't get it. The guy can get to the rim at will. Why wait on a screen?

I actually think playing with Lebron makes a lot of guys worse players than they'd ordinarily happen to be.

He is extremely ball dominant.

They should be able to get a better shot than that.

Damn.

I still think Toronto is going to win the series. But this doesn’t inspire confidence in that opinion.

I want to see a replay of that play where Lebron kicked it out. He had a wide open dunk.

I don't get that guy. I watched it again. It was 2 at least with maybe an and 1.

I could see Toronto losing that game if they came out flat after the layoff, but it should be encouraging for Cleveland that Toronto came out amped up and hot and they still pulled it out.

He’s gonna be a top 3 6th man of the year candidate. Very good player. Tough spot to put him in.

To answer your question, their star had it the whole way and drove into a double team and then kicked it out with 2 seconds left.

Cavs-Raptors was a pretty hilarious bad game. Lue and Casey seemed to be trying to outdo each other with their putrid rotations, but the latter clearly won that battle tonight. Lebron switching to Lowry should not have resulted in Toronto's offense shutting down as much as it did late in the fourth and into OT. I imagine the Cavs are grateful that Tristan Thompson decided to actually show up the last 2 games; he was about the only player for either team tonight whose good moments weren't cancelled out by an equal or greater amount of bad moments. Cavs probably tank the next game and win in 5 or 6.

Raptors are are just a newer version of the Thibb's Bulls. Great regular season team that will never beat Lebron.
