Wait ...

Hasn’t Lowry and DeRozan advanced further than Beal/Wall??

Or am I crazy?

Nothing against Toronto, but Lowry/Derozan were pretty unimpressive in that playoff run.

I remember they were about to lose to Indiana in round 1, then Vogel played Rodney Stuckey off the bench in the closeout game and he literally handed the game to the other team. Miami was a slugfest series and then Whiteside went down and the Heat had to start Winslow at center.

So far Lowry & Derozan haven't really put their stamp down yet as postseason players. Neither have Wall & Beal really, but they're younger and seem to be more natural in those situations.

Imo Toronto would handle Boston in a series, but Washington would beat Toronto. Cavs probably beat everyone. It just depends on matchups and how seedings play out.

Wizards are cute but their ceiling is the second round like every year. Looks like yet another season they won't crack 50 wins. Sad.

Montrezl Harrell as usual dominating. 19/4/2 in only 17 minutes. DJ with 19/20/3/2 blocks in 28 minutes.

Unfortunately come playoff time, regular season wins don't mean much. You should know by now that it's all about matchups. Toronto won 51 and their season ended in a sweep by a lower-seeded team.

I'm not watching the game because I'm on a date, but is gobert destroying towns as much as the box score indicates, or is that mainly favors?

That was a stupid frustration foul by Teague

CptCrunch · Post #349 » by **CptCrunch** » Sat Mar 3, 2018 5:48 am

lmao, that was so flagrant

Completely a non-basketball play. Should be a good suspension.

Raptors have fared poorly because they've never had a good starting lineup in the Lowry/DeRozan era. The reason they're elite this year is because both their starters and bench are killing teams. I'm not worried about the playoffs for that reason unless LeBron is up.

I'm still disappointed the Wizards couldn't beat Boston with an injured IT last year. That was bad man.

He's 7-16 for 18 points and has more TOs than assists and rebounds combined.

Do you want RealGM to throw him a parade? Dude just signed a $150 million dollar deal. He needs to step it up.
