TORONTO: The Toronto Raptors’ two-headed monster had only one head Friday night and for three quarters it appeared it – or he – would shoot holes in the old axiom.
Especially against a Cavaliers team that played below its 2017 postseason standard in the first half.
Although Kyle Lowry was sidelined with a sprained right ankle, DeMar DeRozan tried to give the Toronto Raptors’ new life in their Eastern Conference semifinal series at Air Canada Centre.
After being held to a playoff career-low five points Wednesday, DeRozan exploded for 37 points.
Yet it still wasn’t enough.
