NBA Playoffs 2017: LeBron James ended this Raptors season, and that’s OK

Since it’s demoralizing to write about another blowout victory at the hands of the Cavs, here’s two tweets to sum up the Raptors right now:

LeBron looked at the basketball like a closer examining a baseball before firing a 100 mile per hour fastball on the outside edge past a hopeless swing of some light hitting middle infielder. This has been the Raptors’ place so far this series.

The starting lineup changes did nothing, as over-passing and reluctance to even take an open or semi-open look made the offense arguably worse than Game 1. Jonas Valanciunas had by far the best night, and the dude had maybe the worst individual defensive game from a player this season.
