One thing I must say, walking into the series I had this impression of Brett Brown being a bumbling idiot, but he’s earned a ton of my respect. He’s he opposite of what I thought, I would gladly trade Nurse + FVV for Brett Brown.

but amazingly we turned our weakness in offensive rebounding into a strength - 16 o-boards. And turned them over 15 times. That was a gutsy gutsy win.

Exactly. Raptors shot over 20 more FGAs than Sixers. That was the difference in the game.

Sixers 28 FGM - 65 FGA. Raptors 34 FGM - 89 FGA. Sixers had 8 more points off FTs

Scotiabank Arena security guard Nicholas Prasad: I saw the ball hit the basket, hit the rim the first time. The first thing I thought about was, 'We're going to overtime.' Second time it hit the rim, I thought we had a chance. And the third time it went in. And I'm like, 'Damn, with this referee system they're definitely going to review it.'

And when that ball went in I ran up three stairs -- I almost tripped twice -- and all I saw was Masai [Ujiri] crying. I saw everybody in the stands crying. We were just in shock. But it was like a really good shock. And that was just joy.

Coach Nurse and Bjorken know it’s going in. :nod:

To people that went to the game, was it as loud as the Brooklyn series? I hope it was!

I was at that one, and my ears were ringing it was insanely loud.

I fully agree. Guy is practically an elite coach. That BOS series really messed with his reputation

He's been given a PG with legitimately 0 jumper, it's not his fault. He absolutely pushed us to the limit. His timeout usage was impeccable, and he actually made proactive adjustments

Lowry: Superstar. In 2001, it didn't fall for Vince. In 2019, it fell for Kawhi.

I just watched the TNT call, the SN call was so much better.

Embiid was smiling before the ball went it.

We all know what happens when Demar empty’s the clip

DeMar would have either:

a) bricked the shot
b) had his shot blocked
c) dribbled the ball off his legs out of bounds

Calm down and enjoy the moment!!!!!!

Raptors deserved this win. They outrebounded and out hustled - they had 24 more FGAs than Sixers. Think of that. 24. Its crazy.

It's because it. Painful for tnt to call that win, they were cheering for the sixers along with the refs. F them all.
