    With all that's happened I don't expect a win but I would like to see an indication that the Raptors can do better containing Lebron (and now ITs) dribble penetration and the 3 point shot attack. I believe they've been defending the three reasonably well this year but the dribble penetration remains a huge issue as does giving up offensive rebounds. Missing Lowry and Ibaka it will be a challenge to score more than 100 points so they'd better be able to keep the Cavs down. I didn't mind the idea to rest Demar. It would be a nice F YOU to the league who clearly should have suspended Thomas for the clothesline. What IF someone did that to Lebron? Not that anyone would dare....that could be scary. Do we have anyone who could try and tear Kevin Love's arm off again?

            It’s just bad for the league when a little scuffle like that results in $30k lost and two entertaining players being sidelined, one for a big conference game. They should let players go at each other a bit more, it makes for more entertaining games.
            Yes. They barely more than tickled each other and no punches were thrown

                Hilarious that Ibaka and Johnson are suspended while IT gets away with a fine (which is somehow less than DeMar's)

                And now we get to take on Cleveland without two of our best three players. Hooray

                  JV will get two immediate fouls, at least one big will foul out. LeWhiner goes to the line 38X with phantom fouls

                    Alfonzo and Lorenzo..There's a buddy comedy there somewhere. They could call it "The bench warmers"

                      Thomas said he was going for the steal. Wiggins apparently agreed that it was accidental. Really??

                          Thibs actually agreed with IT explanation too. Maybe that influenced league's decision.

                            That is a whopper of trump proportions..it’s a steal attempt only if Wiggins dribbles the ball at shoulder height..which he clearly doesn’t....
                            There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

                                Or if Wiggins' head was actually the basketball.
