    If the Raptors lose year, that'll be 3rd year in the row that the Raps lost in the first round to a lower seeded team. I think Casey is a good coach, but understandable if people want to replace him.

    Man, I would love to see Paul George in a Rockets uniform ... switch him with James Harden and this Rockets team would have a whole other dimension/mindset. :(
    They lost last night, but you saw Paul being vocal on the bench. Being upset and being a leader at the same time ... all heart. You can't teach that.

    Paul George needs to leave Indiana ASAP.

    What happened to that team? Trio of Hibbert / PG / Stephenson looked like a solid trio 2-3 years ago.

    Chemistry and winning can be fleeting as we well know from the Roxs.

    For anyone who has watched the games, how does Scola look? His stats are atrocious...

    Toronto just cannot find consistency.

    Lowry with 6 fouls? Can't remember the last time a PG fouled out of a game, much less a playoff game.

    He's relegated to the "veteran leadership" role. Not exactly involved in the offense when you have DeRozan, Lowry and JV.

    Ty Lawson is so bad that when he checked in he ignited the Raptors momentum which turned into a 17-2 run. He did this regularly with the Rockets.

    As a Raptors fan I'm happy as hell Vogel keeps playing Lawson.
