It's not easy to suddenly match up against another truly elite team after having Detroit and Boston as your first two opponents. This is the conference finals now. There are only two other teams left in the race: Toronto and Golden State. They also happen to be the #2 and #3 seeds.

Meanwhile...
Detroit - wasn't really a playoff team at all... Orlando would have swept them
Boston - extremely overrated

To steal a quote from raptors republic podcast, the raptors played their ceiling game while the bucks played their bottom game tonight.

Raptors played harder, faster, tougher and made enough shots to distance themselves from the bucks early in the game. Defence was terrific as always and our bench was absolutely perfect with the right amount of energy, shot making and play making on both ends. Really terrific game from the bench. To steal another quote from Inside the NBA, raptors pulled Leonard through the hole tonight as they won as a group despite Leonard’s slow start.

Lowry was pesky, aggressive and energetic to start the game and Gasol has another terrific game on both ends. The bucks bench finally had a bottom game but this time, their starters played much better as Middleton finally had a good game. He gave me the chills in quarters 2 and 3 but raptors made just enough shots and got enough lucky bounces (VanVleet 3) to seal the deal.

I’m worried that our role players will bottom out once again in Milwaukee and the Bucks will run the raptors out the gym by making an insane amount of hay makers to start game 5.

The way I see it, the only way for the raptors to win this series is if Kawhi drops 50 or near 50 in game 5 and we need to keep the bucks under 100 points to steal game 5 and blow them out again in game 6. Can the raptors win 4 straight against the Bucks? History says no, but at this point, nothing will surprise me from these Raptors.

Gotta give credit to the homeboy Drizzy as well. Over the years we’ve seen more and more celebrities turn out for the game, coinciding with when Drake started sitting court side. I mean the winning helps as well but Drake has made it cool to be at a Raptors game.

We just had 2 must win games.
Now Milwaukee will have its first must win game.
Pressure on them in a way.
They are going to come out throwing haymakers and the Raptors need to prepare for that.

I was talking about this in the gen thread.

Philly is a really, really, really good team, and Boston is a big gap between them and the top 3. The Milwaukee guys were like yeah when we starch them, then they are overrated, not our team is that good.

Simmons, Jimmy, Embiid and Harris? That's 4 all-star caliber players on one team.

Boston has Kyrie, Horford, who is next, Tatum? Then who? Hayward? Brown.

For the Bucks it is Giannis and Middleton, and the drop off in talent is pretty big.

The Sixers are going to be good for a very long time and we deserve credit for beating an insanely good team.

This is some defeatist-mentality bull ****, and a PC way of saying the Raptors got lucky.

Milwaukee shot 47% tonight and still got the wheels blown off, and that’s with Kawhi playing on 1 leg, Danny Green still shooting like trash and FVV STILL not playing up to his regular season numbers.

Guys... guys .. guys .

Can we all take a second to appreciate the leap the Bucks have made in one year?

In one year...just one.. they've become a more annoying base then Boston Celtics..

Kawai flops..lol

Pressure is definitely on them but we have a vet team that has been good on the road.

If we can continue the production off the bench and Pascal can have a good game...watch out


Anyways I’m just glad the Raptors are buying us more games. This season has been so much fun. A LOT of highs and lows.
