To win a championship? Sure
But to beat the Cavs? They're good enough.
They aren't until they show they are.

Team is simply not good enough, period. Pathetic performance.
Have to question the mental state of the Raps now....... Cleveland is in their head big time.
Still can't believe they messed that last shott 3x in regulation, ugh. Shouldve been the game right there
All they have to do is bench demar for the majority of the 4th quarter.
He disrupts the offensive flow. What ever happened to his midrange jumpers?? Totally disappeared. He drives the basket then when lanes close panics and makes desperate moves.
We need to follow the blueprint from the game 6 win in Washington.
I don’t mind Lowry so much at least he can drive and make a nice pass for an easy bucket.
Ibaka has been trash. Totally useless.

I had to miss the last part of the game, but watching the highlights, I can't believe the Raptors had four touches of the ball in the dying seconds to get a basket and not a single one went it. Unreal.
After watching that game I don't see how we lose this series. You could see James was done come the 4th... in game 1. He can't leave the court or it becomes an absolute blood bath and playing over 40 minutes/game will kill him over a 7 game series.
Our fantastic bench had a bad game, and our starters couldn't close. Big deal.
Raps in 5.
I'm trying to look at it the same way. On the other hand, Lebron had his worst playoff game in a long time, we were on home court, and we still couldn't close the deal.
If our players perform, I agree that we should easily win the series. I'm just worried about our team psyche against Cleveland.

I think the worry is overrated.
Sure LeBron had a "bad" game, but his team played better than we should expect, and we were bad ourselves in the 4th.

Bruh, call me when he doesn't have a triple double and we'll talk about him having a bad game.

Disagree. Demar and Kyle have to take over the game down the stretch because they are the best players on the team. That's what makes players super stars and is the reason they are not. Demar had the ball in his hand for the final shot, dribbled right into 3 defenders, pump fake pump fake, then passed it off to a guy with an injured shoulder to shoulder the responsibility to make a 3 when they only needed a 2 to winn.Last night wasn't on Demar on Kyle. In the past, they would have forced ill advised shots, but this time, they did the right thing by creating open looks for their teammates. We just couldn't hit any easy shots when it mattered most.
