Portland has stolen home-court advantage from Denver
Only one series remains where home-court hasn't been stolen, and it was one that I thought the lower seeded team would actually win.
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

Portland winning on the road with Dame going 5/17. Pretty impressive. I'm feeling nervous about my prediction.

Perhaps, although both of those games looked like it came down to the wire in crunch time. If the home team wins the next two, I like their momentum and chances.

why is Philadelphia's Scott playing with a red bandana around his head? Did the run out of headbands?

For all the flack DeRozan got for choking in the playoffs for TOR... Lowry was equally at fault and even in these playoffs he's looked like the weak link on the Raptors. 10 minutes and 0 point so far. Even in Game 1 they won in spite of him.

I really can’t stand Lowry.

Toronto is good, they aren't scary good though. No one is this season.

Budget Chris Paul. Unbelievable defender, incredibly high I.Q. Insanely annoying to watch.

I may have overrated the Raptors a bit. They're a great team and full of depth but it's not showing the last game and a half. Lowry is again being "Playoff Lowry" and basically, if Kawhi can't score 40+ the Raps have trouble winning.

The Lowry flop is almost as annoying as Harden rip through.

It all depends on Siakam. If he's great they are really good. If not they don't have anyone else you have to really worry about.
