Is the NBA pushing that Vince commercial? Do they realize they are trolling us?

Those days brought us great entertainment, but they brought us far more despair and disappointment, than pride.

Again, one game. I think all but one Orlando player who played significant minutes played well over their averages.

I think they're very much the same team. They still have the exact same flaws as last year that have yet to be addressed and their coach is still the same tunnel vision coach that is incapable of making in game adjustments and banking on the success and strategies that work during the regular season. Orlando pretty much played Giannis the same way we did last year and they still have yet to come up with a way to counter that.

Raptors have never been the number 1 seed. Raptors have not lost a game 1 against a short-handed team.

Numer 1 seeds do not lose game 1 against a short handed team.

Weren't the Raptors the number 1 seed in 2017-18

Not at all. Vucevic had a massive game, Ross was deadly inside the arc and Fultz was a surprise in Q1. Fournier was non-existent on the offensive end until the last 6 minutes and Augustin went 3/11 from the field. Everyone else was pretty average for Orlando.

It sounds crazy to say, but even though Orlando scored 122 today, they can play better offensively. I don't know if they can continue to outwork the Bucks to the degree they did in G1 though.

My pre-Kawhi memory is failing. You're right. The Raptors beat the Wizards in game 1.

GG Orlando Magic.

Fournier and Augustin are combined 0 for 8. I suspect they'll wake up in the 2nd half.

Augustin with 11 points and Fournier scored all 9 of his in the 4th.

Bam still doesn't get enough love, he's a damn good 2-way player. I feel like he'd get more love if he was better offensively and worse defensively. Plus he's not a flashy player so that doesn't help him either.

Pacers are playing well

I said countless time that Bucks letting Brogdon go over Middleton is a big mistake :lol:
