PatsFan, what's your take on MIA/TOR tonight with Whiteside out?

[HarryCaray]

Seems like Valenciunas will have his way on the boards no? :think2:

 

[PatsFan1283]

He is out for the series as well actually.

I do like Toronto though. Byumbo is a very solid player and Whiteside being out is going to make things much easier for DD\Lowry. Miami will likely go to some very exotic lineups, maybe try Deng at center.

I got 5.5 but 5 is solid. Val outplayed Whiteside so far head to head but Whitesides loss is mor impactful on D imo.

 

[Mr_Mark]

with both bigs out, I would think that favors Toronto? it will be interesting to see what happens. I am staying away from this game

 

[Stylez]

Favour Toronto big time . Byimbo will be just as good . JV has been playing good but he's never been the main factor and is just painful to watch at times . Amare starting his first playoff game since 2012. Watch for Lowry and derozen to drive the ball all night

 

[Stylez]

Or shoot lots of low % shots . SMH

 

[PatsFan1283]

Ya, pretty weak start for Toronto. Miami getting most of their pts in transition or semi-transition.

Lowry is just so bad in the playoffs. I remember watching last year vs my Wizards and couldn't believe it. Watching these Eastern conference teams play so bad makes me wonder why I didn't bet all my $ on Cleveland to win the east

Miserable beat for Raptors bettors.

It's almost as if his brain shuts off , he makes the worst decisions . Last night was probably the ugliest all around game I've watched in a long time . Kyle and demar were awful , without their bench the raps wouldn't have even been close

Yeah I had TOR +6 on the buy and POR +7 on the buy. Ugh.

 

[Willie99]

Yeah I had TOR +6 on the buy and POR +7 on the buy. Ugh.

I hate the NBA, last night reminded me why

I bet relatively few NBA games, always have

Tor +4.5 & Por +6




PS: your Cubs are looking pretty damn good, almost ready to concede that over 98 wins thing

almost feel I got suckered

 

[PatsFan1283]

Lol rough loss. Gotta be over 95% up 7 with 4:30 left at +5.5

Biyumbo was clearly the best big out there. Had a stretch in the 3rd quarter where he was really D'ing up.

When your 2 main scoring guards shoot 6/28 then it's all a waste though. Joseph, Ross and the other roleplayers played well too.
