CLEVELAND -- Tuesday night started out well for the Toronto Raptors.
Masai Ujiri's first transaction after taking over as the team's general manager in May 2013, somehow moving bust Andrea Bargnani to the New York Knicks for a 2016 first-rounder, yielded the No. 9 overall pick in the upcoming NBA draft.
And then, playing in their first Eastern Conference finals game in franchise history, the underdog Raptors jumped to a 7-0 lead over the heavily favored Cleveland Cavaliers.
But that's where the fun ended.
LeBron James and Kyrie Irving were unstoppable getting to the rim, and the Raptors missed a bunch of 3-pointers and got trounced by the Cavs 115-84 in Game 1 at raucous Quicken Loans Arena.
