We’re a few weeks into what’s been an exciting and intense NBA Playoffs, especially for the Toronto Raptors.
As tradition dictates every spring, the Toronto Raptors lost Game 1 to the Orlando Magic. Kyle Lowry failed to score and panic ensued. It was a moment to reinforce that deep-seated Toronto sports nihilism.
The mood lightened considerably, as the Raptors bounced back with a dominant performance, scoring at will and playing suffocating defense.
Game 3 was a sterner test, with the Raptors in a dog fight on the road against the Magic and Kawhi Leonard had an anemic performance but against all the odds, Raptors pulled out a win.
