Need to do a better job of fighting Lowry on these drives.  Kemba is switching onto him and then allowing him to get too deep into the paint.

I know the announcers keep saying Gasol needs to bring it but, man, he's looked absolutely cooked in this series.

Honestly, the way last game progressed, I don't think C's would've made it, if not for the Smartville to happen. I guess in order to have a better chances today we desperately need Kemba playing his A/B+ game for 4Q. Smartville is always welcomed, but not necessarily expected.

Agreed, could easily be a 1-1 series right now.  The live turnovers have killed us.  If we take care of the ball there's very little chance Toronto can win this series.

Yeah, limiting turnovers will be the key here. They are so good in provoking them tho)

Yeah, he is absolutely toasted. He belongs in a 15MPG bench role

If I were the Raps, I'd seriously consider using Siakam at the 5. I mean, he's taller than Theis/Timelord.

Brown has swallowed Lowry on two drives to the basket.  Good individual defense.

Looks like we've calmed down and are playing good ball now.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

You would think this was the Toronto broadcast that we're listening to.  Raptors are all they talk about.
