For all involved. Casey needs to take a breath to because nothing he is saying or doing in the playoffs is getting through to these guys.

Didn't help that he was bitching about the start time of the game before the game either

No, it did not.

GSW stares at 12:30 local time, guess the league is disrespecting them too.

I've just never found it easy to like this team. From Ujiri screaming fuck Brooklyn before the first playoff series two years ago to this whining now, it's like a team that hasn't won a playoff series since I was in elementary school thinks they're the fucking Spurs, from the GM through to the coach on down. If I don't respect that there sure as shit aren't going to be any opposing teams that respect it.

Can't rely on home-court advantage, especially when you're the #7 seed. Got to win as many games on the road as possible.

Time to get greedy and not be satisfied with one...

Do you really have to put "Built Not Bought" on every single post? I agree with this mindset/post, but you ruin it with your self-righteous bull shit though at the end.

Wow - I rarely post it, dude. Only when regarding the Pacers, which isn't all that much considering my involvement in the 30 Team Mock Draft in which I didn't draft a single Pacers player.

Since it pisses you off so much, I'm going to post it more...

Let's get Game 2!!! I'll go on a limb and say we won't win the series unless we win this game.

BUILT NOT BOUGHT!!!

That's fine. I look forward to a possible match up with the Pacers in the 2nd round. Knocking your team out would be great.

 

[bksballer89]

Really looking forward to this to see if DeRozan and Lowry step up

 

[gordontrue]

DeRozan, Lowry, & Valanciunas combined for 11 for 46 from the field in game 1. Should be the worst offensive game of the series for the Raptors.

I still think Toronto comes out of this series. But they have to get the W tonight. Can't imagine them winning 4 out of 5 with 3 of those 5 games being in Indiana.

 

[bksballer89]

So Casey realized he should start Carroll? No shit sherlock

 

[bksballer89]

One thing I'll say about Toronto is that they hands down have the best playoffs atmosphere in the East. Crowd is always rocking

 

[bksballer89]

Scola shooting 3's now lol

 

[bksballer89]

Solid start

 

[bksballer89]

Indiana playing like a team just happy to win their one road and will gladly go back to Indy with a split

 

[bksballer89]

17-1 run. Toronto up 14

 

[bksballer89]

Toronto up 18 but it has nothing to do with DeRozan and Lowry. They're both still playing like shit.

Pretty amazing how these guys choke every year in the playoffs

Lead cut to 5 in about 7 minutes of real time

 

[bksballer89]

DeRozan and Lowry 3-18 at the half

 

[CodeBreaker]

Wow Valanciunas with 19 at the half.

 

[CodeBreaker]

Lowry and Derozan are starting to make their shots

 

[bksballer89]

Looks like Toronto will win but no way are they winning a game in Indiana if Lowry and DeRozan play how they have the first 2 games.

Currently those 2 are at 9-30 tonight after going 8-32 on Saturday
