We shot 40%

I expect Isaac and Gordon to struggle on offense because they have the biggest responsibilities this series. 

We need better games from Vuc, Fournier, and Ross. 

Hopefully Siakam will return to the 11 PPG clip that Isaac held him to in the regular season. Despite his box score, I also think AG did a good job against Kawhi and it’s possible there might be a reversion to the 18-21 PPG he had against us.

 

On the other hand, Lowry isn’t going to put up zero every game, I’m not sure Vuc is going to have success on the post isolation’s against Gasol we like to give him and DJ can’t be depended on for 25+. Our second unit benefited from MCW producing more offensively than can be expected from him. Fournier draws a tough matchup versus Green as well.

 

With all that said, I’m still pretty confident that we’ll have a chance to win every game and we’ll have a chance to pull this series out depending on our late game execution. If our 2nd unit can continue to defend like this, there’s an obvious recipe for success that I feel good about.

ESPN had like a 5 second delay compared to FSFL. So if you were quick enough you could watch DJ drill that triple in Gasol's face twice!

Excellent! Hat's off to the little guy that was considered as "Not a starting PG in this league" Go Magic!!

Remember the finals run when we stole game 1 on the road in Cleveland? Sweet Lew with the huge 3 when we were down 2? Let’s remake that history... right now

It's amazing, All Eyes, that what happened tonight mirrors what happened in that game 1 series in Cleveland. You called for it, and we absolutely did a remake of that history.

We gotta try to take game 2 at all costs. Lowry will still be doubting himself so we have to capitalize

Eh. I mean every game matters but we did what we needed to do.

Ironically enough I think we need to run less post ups for Vuch and just let him pick and pop his way through the game. It's everything I hate about his game but it is probably the best bet against the Raps.

Above all else DJ needs to stay aggressive.
