Would be loving the Sixers' throwback court if it wasn't giving me 2001 Game 7 PTSD.

Well, damn. Woke my son up in the ninth inning, hoping he’d get to witness the first Toronto championship of his lifetime. Instead, he learned a valuable lesson about sports heartbreak 💔

Raptors want to be an elite defensive team and, ugh, that was not great. Mavs went 13-for-16 inside the paint in the 3rd quarter. They're 27-for-33 (82%) on the night.
