Raptors coach Dwane Casey calls for punches 'below the belt' against Cavs in Game 3

TORONTO -- Based on what the coaches are saying, the Cavaliers and Raptors are going to get rough with one another tonight in Game 3.

Players, coaches, refs, fans. Consider yourselves warned.

"To beat the champs, you got to throw punches," Raptors coach Dwane Casey said. "Whether they're haymakers, undercuts or whatever. Maybe a couple below the belt. But you got to box. You got to fight, you got to compete."

The Cavs lead the series 2-0 and have dominated both games. They've never lost a series in which they've won the first two games (13-0), and the same goes for LeBron James (19-0).
