Yes, yes I have. That same ass excuse you have been using is a bit tired :russell:

Yeah, the Raptors are just missing shots. It has NOTHING to do with how Cleveland has been playing defense this past game and a half.

I got it buddy :tu:
It's not an "excuse" if you come across as somebody who literally doesn't have a cotdamn clue of what the fukk they're talking about.

Here's the thing: the Raptors managed to get stops all throughout the first three quarters, but couldn't go on runs on the other end because they couldn't generate any consistent offense, besides DeRozan throwing it up. There were about 7-8 possession flows (at least), where they could've gone on a run, but the complementary players kept missing shots and/or nobody could actually create easier scoring opportunities for the team. Most of which were from behind the arc - they went 2-18 from the 3-pt line. Lowry was a top-3 three-pt shooter before he got injured, and was shooting 66% from behind the arc in this series (4 from 6) - nobody else on the Raptors was even remotely close. Not only could he have helped them with their 3-pt production, but he would've given the Raptors a far greater chance of capatilizing off those [missed] scoring opportunites - not only through his own scoring/shooting production (avg 20 ppg on 56% in this series), but creating easier shots for his teammates. After all he had TWICE as many assists/secondary assists than any other Raptors player in the first two games.

All the Raptors needed was to take advantage of at least half of those scoring runs in the first three quarters and it would've been a different game - Lowry would've been the difference in that - especially since he and the bench unit were one of the best offensive 5-man lineups this season. But instead the Raptors let the Cavs hang around without going on runs of their own, and Cleveland just put the foot down in the 4th and ran away with it.
