I think we need 25+ in any combination from Richardson, Winslow, McRoberts and Tyler Johnson. That with 45+ from Dragic and Wade and 15 or so from J. Johnson and 10 or so from Deng. That's the 95 points I think it'll take to win this and the most likely place where we might get them.
Feels like we are getting outplayed outhustled outeverything, and we are only down by 3 so far.. Just weather the storm..
The refs have really been affecting the outcome of this game. There are some pretty blatant flops going on with Lowry, I don't know how that dude gets whistles.
Might be the only one who doesn't want to see this brand of "Iso-Joe" brand of Heat basketball against Cleveland.
Both teams are going to make runs, we just have to respond. We have had a few of our own so I'm not overly worried. However if we go in down 15 or something I will be.
6 Point deficit isn't too bad or damning at halftime. I'd like to cut it down quickly but even maintaining the distance gives us a chance the last 5 minutes.
Look at the replay again, he was hit. The announcers are just terribly blind and it happened much earlier than they were focused on. You can see Wades face move against his upper arm and THEN he throws out the elbow thats looks like it misses.
Havee to be better defending on the ball. Not staying in front as well as we were in Game 6. That how you contain drives and keep TOR off the FT line.
Just need to stay composed. I mean seriously a 4-6 point run and it's a tight game again...that's nothing. I hope the team just stays composed and keeps fighting.
We have no answers... We need a miracle now.. Wade... Time for you to take over, now.. I dont care if it ends up ugly, go out shooting and we will live with the result
Wade resting possible the rest of the third to play the full fourth.. Try to cut it to single digits..
Main issue now is that we need to elevate with their shooters but not foul. The hand in the eyes isn't working and we need to create more pressure on the ball defensively.
If I'm a Raptors fan my main concern is Lowry running out of gas because he's running around wild. Not sure how likely that is or isnt.
We are stubborn and thickheaded. What did i say about Lowry open 3s?! Why arent they reading my posts? ****
Reftors putting the game away. Richardson gets the rebound, gets shoved out of bounds, and is called for the foul. Free throws.
