The Toronto Raptors are one game away from the NBA Finals. After falling down 1-2 to the Philadelphia 76ers, after needing a miraculous bounce to win Game 7, after falling behind 0-2 to a “historically great” Bucks team, Toronto is one game away.
Game 5 started off as poorly as possible. Milwaukee came out on fire. Eric Bledsoe made a surprise appearance after disappearing all series, and Bucks were cooking. Less than five minutes into the game, Toronto found themselves down by 14.
The Raptors responded. They didn’t grab back the lead, but the weathered the storm, and at the end of the quarter, it was just a 10-point game.
