    Yes, when Lowry was playing like a boss. Then DeRozan returned and they never recovered.

    DeRozan's best role in the NBA is 6th man. The sooner he embraces this, the better. When Jamal Crawford finally did, he became a better player and his value to teams skyrocketed.

    Some guys just aren't good enough to be the 1st or 2nd option on contenders.

    Does Pierce ever miss a clutch playoff shot?

    What a bunch of terrible late game threes, coach of the Raptors has to go.

    Raptors seem to have hit their 'ceiling'. 48-49 regular season win team, first round fodder (even in the East)

    Maybe better luck when not facing a team with Paul Pierce. :p

    Lowry should have became a rocket, would have been a good backdrop to Harden and Howard

    Lowry is obviously hurt, I don't think this Raptors team needs to blow it up or anything

    Looks like the Rockets are about to end their first round futility while the Raptors' will continue.

    Damn, expected this series of all series would certainly be competitive. If Toronto blows it up, Lowry to Houston? I still love him as a secondary option.

    In the Raptor's view the truth is Satan impersonated
