The Toronto Raptors took it to the Brooklyn Nets yesterday. The Raptors were the aggressors from the opening tip, and didn’t let up until the final buzzer sounded. There were no letdowns like the third quarter of Game 1, and no amount of scrappiness could get the Nets over the hump like it nearly did in Game 2.
Now the Raptors are only one game away from their first-ever playoff series sweep.
Bubble playoffs are different.
Before the thoughts, once again, I’d like to share an important non-basketball-related message. This one, again, is about education reform and about how the history — and struggle — of Black people and Indigenous people in Canada is barely taught in our public schools.
