Looks like th Raptors have activated playoff mode. :sad:

I'm glad the Nets won today. :rockon:
Crazy day from what I am reading. Hopefully the clips can take their giant down. Just got back from Baldy in time to see the game.

Kyle Lowry with zero points in 35 minutes is one of the worst performances ever when it comes to big games. They lose by 3...that's on him.

Yet he finished +11

The only one of the Raptor starters who finished in positive territory.

I don't know what the +/- stats mean, don't know what to say about that. I suppose it's Raptors tradition to lose game 1 of the playoffs, but not even getting 2 points is pathetic. Hopfully, Lowry snaps out of it ASAP, and if he doesn't,Nick Nurse should pull him out or have him come off the bench instead. Oh well, we'll see what tomorrow brings.

As for the other teams...Golden State performed well of course. Too bad about that KD incident.

Yay for the Celtics winning, Sr's gotta be pleased. Blake Griffin is out for the entire Bucks series, so no chance even getting one win...adios, Pistons!

New coach for creep's team -hope Luke Walton does well there. I really enjoyed watching th Kings this season.

I think that's all for my NBA weekend wrap-up. :lol:

Looking forward to the Nets vs 76ers game tonight!

It's the point differential when that particular player is on the court. So, in this case the dinos outscored them by 11 when KL was on the court. It's a good stat, but more meaningful in the course of a season rather than a single game.

Anyhoo, shocking losses so far in the first round, especially the Clips comeback at Oracle. Can't help but to love their determination and grit. Bucks looked insane...the C's have a really rough 2nd round shaping up. I really think Kyrie is looking towards the NY teams with Durantula. The Knicks in particular have the best % chance to pick 1st. They pull that off and it's Zion and those 2 monsters. :jasper: Zion is in line to follow the Magic/Bird, Jordon, Kobe, LeBron stations in NBA glory. He declared so the shoe endorsement race is on; he'll be a very wealthy kiddo in short order. He's a god

Yep clips looked great at times...I love that Harrell kid...had hoped the lakes would grab him for a while (def not gonna happen now) I knew he'd do fine once given the opportunity of D Jordan leaving...too many baller vets (c3p trade was def good for both teams) to allow being run and showed by gs...gs should have kept that pedal down
