TrueMagicFan07 671 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 6 minutes ago, ?4thewin said: Toronto is going to torch Philly. Everyone on Toronto is the worst possible matchup for their counterpart on Philly. Do you think Toronto will win the series against the Bucks though? I think the Raptors were that good against the Magic because . . .well, we're talking about the playoffs, which is a whole different stage than that the Magic was playing on during the regular season. And as you have said so many times, the Magic has flaws and they were exposed. After losing the first game, the Raptors prepared and stepped up their game. Also, no one expected the Magic to make it to the playoffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone on Toronto is the worst possible matchup for their counterpart on Philly. I was going to say the opposite on matchups. Lowry on Fournier worked but Lowry on Reddick will not work as well. Toronto has no answer for Embiid. Leonard vs Harris will be fun to watch and something we did not see in the regular season. Butler vs Siakim a slight Philly edge and Green vs Simmons a heavy Philly edge (unless Leonard guards Simmons which will give Philly an edge elsewhere). Toronto's bench an edge, Philly's starters an edge. Good series coming our way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kawhi is the worst possible matchup for Harris. Siakam is a great defender and built to defend Simmons. Danny Green is a great matchup against JJ. So then you're stuck with Lowry on Butler which is fine. Butler will get his but not enough to win games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MagicOne 119 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 It's gonna be the Bucks playing the Warriors for all the marbles in June. The Warriors will win the Championship in 6 games. Easy call to make and I made it correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Embiid much faster and more physical thna Vuc. Gasol about to face a real All Star now that he cannot handle. Siakim's offense will struggle if he has to play and defend Simmons outside and down low. Harris will pull Leonard outside opening up the middle. JJ will light up Green soemthing Augustine could not do. And Butler will post up Lowry and when doulbe teams come Butler will make Toronto pay big time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
