Is there going to be a single game this postseason where the refs aren't missing stuff left and right? If you see the video above, Spo didn't even protest right away. I don't think Lowry stepped out of bounds.

I have a feeling this will be a fun series. For your sake, I hope so. Because last night's game was awful.

It kills me to see Lowry struggling like this. Regardless of his post season performance, he's still my favorite Raptor right now.

Watching Tim and Sid right now. Sid is making a compelling argument that Cojo needs to take Lowry's minutes. Lowry is clearing hurt and has admitted to passing up open shots. The Raptors will not win, if they continue to allow him to play these many minutes.
Cojo is shooting 58% in 23 minutes. Lowry is shooting 30% in 40 minutes (the worst playoff shooting percentage in the last 58 years). I know Cojo has been great in limited minutes, but he has to be given the keys to run this offence. There's a reason you go out and acquire depth for situations like these. Take the pressure off Lowry to recover.

Honestly, start playing Delon Wright some minutes if Lowry is mentally not there.
Already playing one rookie rotation/starting minutes, might as well play another. This is what sepearates coaches that can win games in the RS to coaches that can flat out win games. The latter plays his young guns because they get the PT/development and if they succeed, it throws the other team off balance.
Casey did it with Powell, he has to do with Delon. For Kyle's sake, if he is admitting that his shot won't fall because his confidence is low, get him some rest.

Most Lowry should be playing is 32 minutes if he's not doing well.

Now Alvin Williams argues for the opposite. He says Lowry needs a lot of positive re-enforcement from the coaching staff and his teammates. Benching him will be a huge mistake.
Alvin knows Lowry really help. He helped recruit him to Villanova and has been a mentor ever since. He had lunch with him before appearing on Tim and Sid's show and says that everything wrong in Lowry's game right now, Lowry knows. Alvin says that Lowry is a star that does all the grunt, dirty job on that court that separates him from all the flashy stars in the league. The Raptors needs Lowry to recapture his old self for them to win this series.

I hope nobody blames the Raps losing on refs. They lost because they sucked ass shooting the 3, turnovers, and couldn't defend the 3.
Lowry and DeRozan have been donkey balls and this has been embarrassment of a "run".

Zach Lowe said that Lowry's supposed healthy and everything is a resolve of a mental problem. Seems really weird since Lowry is one of those "chip on his shoulder" guys. I'd be surprised if he continues playing this bad if it isn't because of his shoulder. But I said halfway through last round Joseph needed to start because they might beat Indy with him playing like shit, but they don't stand a chance against Miami with him playing this badly.

JV crushed Wade's leg. I hope he is okay but not okay enough to play.

The Heat have so many damn closers on the team. We don't even have one!

Should have been up by so much. This isn't looking good. Flow of the game really seemed to change when CoJo went out with 2 fouls, Raps didn't really run the break as much. Hope to see him and Lowry on at the same time more in the second half.

James Johnson sighting. Probably the only guy that won't get pushed around by JJ.
