It's usually not a good idea to judge a series from Game 1. Toronto will watch some film and make adjustments. It's not over yet.

Yeah, that was really weak. I get why they discourage taunting, but they shouldn't try to take all joy out of the game.

Kyle Lowry scoring 4 points the entire game was uplifting and satisfying.

We'd look better against the Bucks than the Raps do right now but it would be a tough physical series.
Off the top of my head that Bucks blowout was our biggest loss of the year aside from the Golden State loss.
Man, you know how to rain on someone's parade, lol.
What about the 3 other games?

Re: NBA Games Discussion Thread - Part 3
Look I am so tired of people swearing that the Kyle Lowery that I keep seeing on my TV in the playoffs and in big games isn't the "real" Kyle Lowery. If any "elite team leader" had as many horrible games on their resumes and playoff sweeps (out of the playoffs)- he wouldn't be considered elite. Let Wall have a game like today tomorrow and the Washington fans will want to trade him for Jeremy Lin or Seth Curry--- and will swear we should throw in picks. Man it makes no damn sense that he has made an all NBA team...

Each year Raps fans defending Lowry for not being 100% healthy. But the reality is he plays very dumb. I had deja vu 2nite like 2years ago.
He was collecting dumb fouls and put himself in foul trouble. Shot selection wasn't good and when he is off his impact on teammates is almost 0.
Casey isn't a coach who does adjustments. I know it's game 1 only but I like Bucks team, their D, lenghts, deflections. It will be interesting series.

Wall is the EC's second best player and has been since 2014. Giannis is a transcendent talent though and will be a dominant player in time. We would have eviscerated the Bucks, Toronto just isn't that good when Lowry sucks ass like this.

Yep....thats not a leadership move. Lebron basically said "make the best basketball play and live with the consequences" and Paul saying ...give me the ball...right after he passed the ball!

Did you forget Gordon and George Hill? I cant believe i am saying this but Gordon Hayward looks like the best guy on the court when Griffin, Jordan, Reddick and CHRIS PAUL are playing.
We need to go after him hard in the off season!

Its like people missed Wall avg 23 and 11 while leading the league in steals lol
Lebron- then Wall then Derozen then Giannis then IT....i struggle to give IT a nod at anything when he DEAD last in defense in the league...dEAD LAST is pretty bad...its essentially the worse
