bench doesn't mean as much during the playoffs as it does during the regular season. 10 man rotations are normally overrated.

crowds are so much worse than yesterday. I wonder if that's why the East always sucks, worse crowds. Maybe more corporates and legacy riches or something.

The last 5 mins after Beal's horrendous 6th foul call were a disaster for the Raps. They're still gonna win the series tho.

It doesn't mean as much since the other teams play their best players more but it still is very valuable. The Raptors have 10 good NBA players (when FVV is healthy) and they never have to play anyone who isn't good. How many other playoff teams can say that? Maybe the Rockets when Luc is healthy. Plus they have more match-up flexibility. There's definitely still a ton of value even if the Raps aren't quite as good as their record/point differential.

Why is Brog on Bron when Lance is in? Just put Lance on Bron.

If Bog is gonna go 32-35 mpg he needs all his energy and he has no chance vs LeBron anyway

You only need to really go 7-8 deep with no b2b and long breaks between games with extended TV timeouts. Cleveland had this same issue when they were good in Bron's first time in Cleveland--they were deep and were built for the regular season but sucked when rotations shrank. It's much better to have 4 elite players with 6 okay/vets than 10 good players or 1 great and 9 good.

i'm def in the minority on this, but I like Marv and CWebb together. While Marv botches like 4 calls a quarter and Webb is one to ramble, they have good chemistry and both clearly are still excited to do the job.

Confusing Collison and Oladipo, sure, fine. Nance and Love? OK they are about the same size.

He just called Calderon "Korver"! That's incredible, Korver is like 4 inches taller.

Yeah exactly. He's super excited that this is his job and he doesn't take it for granted.

He's also more insightful than he's given credit for.

Love looks bad. No rhythm, looks hurt.

LeBron needs to god-mode like he did 1st half or this team is done.

Just seems like it is going to take an absolutely herculean effort for them to win 3/5 games.

edit: Turner 4 fouls, damn he was cooking too
