Playoffs! Round 1, Game 1: Washington Wizards 106 - Toronto Raptors 114 (TOR 1-0)

[Demographic Shift]

Well, I live east of Peterborough, in a lightly populated area where every power line is surrounded by trees. With an ice storm on the way, that's like having a big red bulls eye on your back. If we don't lose power by 5:30, both my TV and internet satellite receivers will be so coated with ice I won't be able to get any signal. By 6:00 Pm I will be up a shaky ladder with a squirt bottle of hot water in my hand trying to melt the half inch of ice off the apparatus. If things settle down by 7:00, I should be able to catch the end of the game. Whatever. I don't need to watch the game to know the Raps got this. I'll catch it later on the replay.

Everyone in the path of this storm, stay safe and take care.

That just screams Canadian...On a ladder.....de-icer in hand ...freeing up the dish to catch a game on Saturday night.

Tony Brothers, Scott Foster, and Pat Fraher are our three officials folks.. Not the best draw.

We may be the 8️⃣ seed. But this is the playoffs, and we're a dangerous, experienced @WashWizards team. My blog on facing the @Raptors. #WizRaptors #DCFamily https://t.co/LIFLmKHWyZ

Hey Brad, here's another number for you: the #8 seed has beaten the #1 seed only 4 times in the history of the NBA playoffs. And one of those was the strike shortened season. I don't like your odds.

Pick your poison..could have been MARC Davis and Ed Malloy....

See the raps taking the officials out of the game by coming out and taking it right to the whizzers...

It is no cakewalk 8th seed matchup but I have a good feeling the Raptors come out strong despite the history.

You can’t win a seven game series by winning game one...but it sure does help...

I am no Ed Malloy fan but I think this season Tony Brothers has been worse for us. I have actually been OK with Malloy reffing our games this season. Though hes been horrible in the past.

Tony Brothers has pissed me off more consistently than any other ref this season by far tho.

The chances that we drew one of Brothers or Marc Davis was 1,000,000%. The NBA knows exactly what it's doing.
