Raptors Hoping To Make It Back To The 6...Game 6:heh: Cavs Vs Raptors Playoff Thread

[Miggs]

Bucks took the Raptors to 6 with 0 shooters....

So Middleton ain't a shooter ? And he got taken out the series by Norm...

 

[Ain't That Something]

It's not just PART of the reason - it was the main reason you dumb fukk. The Bucks offense was horrible in that series, bringing up the fact they took the Raptors to six games without any shooters doesn't mean a cotdamn thing. The MAIN reason (hell, the only reason) they extended it to six games was because their defense kept them afloat. If the Bucks had the EXACT same offense, but a medicore defense - Raptors would've swept them. This is simple shyt.

So what you saying is since the Cavs defense is trash Raptors in 7

Their defense maybe trash, but they have one of the best offenses in the league.

Cleveland is not worse than last year.


This team is stacked.

There defense is much worse.

Yup - defense is in major struggle mode.

Last year everyone was healthy and clicking. This year JR still hasn't gotten back on track after coming off of injury, Love still hasn't gotten back on track after coming off of injury, TT looked tired as hell as the season wore down and then hurt his thumb, Irving hasn't turned it on on defense yet and seems to have nagging issues with his knee, Jefferson has been looking like maybe he really should have retired, and they replaced a lot of minutes from a very good defensive backup point guard (Delly) with an out-of-shape D-Will, and then they're giving 18 minutes/game to Korver who is a sieve on defense.

The D-Will/Korver additions still make them somewhat better on offense than they were last year. But those additions plus the injuries make them a lot worse on defense.

You a STH? Prices were steep for Round 1, can't imagine whats it like now

Must-win game for the Raps IMO.

Middleton couldnt make shyt that series even when open. Cavs got shooters all over the board.

No ONE player ever is. Needs to be a team effort. Raptors have more than enough players to bother LeBron.

Tucker/Carroll/Powell/ hell even Patterson. Obviously won't stop him but they have enough depth to try different looks on D.
