Toronto handed LeBron and the Cavaliers the first game.
What you probably remember were the last shots, all of them. Fred VanVleet wide open, three offensive rebound tips, and in overtime, VanVleet again. Any of those shots go in — one flipped coin out of 91 — and the Toronto Raptors are not trying to get over the worst loss in franchise history.
“I’m going to take those shots every time,” VanVleet said Wednesday, the morning after an incomprehensibly bungled 113-112 overtime loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 1 of the Raptors’ best-of-seven second-round series.
