Leonard doesnt look right

Whoever signs him to a deal next will need to monitor his condition like a baby. Also will require lots of rest

I know his exact condition...

It's called carrying the entire freakin' team, and putting it on your back.

Lowry finally stepped up, Paskal has been 50/50, while Gasol just looks like he went to a time machine into the future...

its not only that

but two games in a row,  in the 2nd half....after dunks

he is seen hobbling

I think it's a bit harsh when he's been carrying an extraordinarily heavy load for this team. However he was rested a lot this year and it's saved Toronto's butt in the playoffs, so there's definitely some credence to that
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)

PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

KL lift and bounce is about 75 %

even at this he is still better than most players at 100%

Not the time of the year he can shut down and rest and heal .

Pop some pain meds and get out on the floor ....playoff time.

To finish off the Bucks might drain him and not much left in the tank for GS

In the Finals games aren't every other day so that will play a huge difference in his conditioning.

For a guy like him 24 vs 48 hours rest is huge.

You kind of get the sense that this series is just a fight to see who loses to Golden State  :P

I mean I definitely think either MIL/TOR could beat Golden State in a series especially with both teams having home court advantage in the Finals. But you do wonder if the rest will benefit Golden State while MIL/TOR beat each other up in what's likely to be a 7-game series.

Kawhi also looks a bit hobbled though he's still carrying this franchise (kudos to him!). But obviously it's something to monitor because if the Raptors move on but Kawhi's not even 75%, then they could have trouble beating GSW even with them missing KD.

isnt drake an official designated raptors ambassador? I don't get why people are making a big deal. He's essentially recognized as a member of the team

Kawhi missed more games than Irving did this season.

Yeah he had so many games missed for load management (around 20?)

Well if Kawhi cant be even at 75%, then its best that they do not upset the Bucks, Otherwise it will be a cakewalk for the Warriors in the Finals if KL is a no go.

The Bucks surely have done well against the defending champs. Also a defeat for the raptors could mean KL moves back to the West.

Maybe Lucky the Leprechaun should start massaging Stevens during games.
