Which is precisely why I think Toronto has struggled to a degree this post season. Nobody other than Kawhi can get in to a rhythm. They have completely moved away from what got them where they are. Less of a team game like it was in the regular season.

Raptors bench was solid tonight. The top 3 +/- stats of the game were Raptor bench players Norman Powell at +29, Fred at +25 and Serge Ibaka at +24. Powell scored 18 points but took 18 shots to get there, Ibaka scored 17 points on 12 shots and Fred 13 points on 6 shots. Ibaka grabbed a game high 13 rebounds will Fred dished out 6 assists vs only 1 turnover.

I'm of the opinion that it is a big mistake to increase the amount of "ISO" in the playoffs. Especially for this Raptors team! I'm certain to have a bias seeing Fred get more minutes but as we have learned here in Wichita, good things happen when the ball is in Fred's hands.Last edited by Signman; May 22, 2019, 07:38 AM.

Apparently Nick Nurse might have been thinking the same thing about Fred.

Fred has broken out of his shooting slump the last two games, but let me tell you the most impressive part of his game has been the ALL OUT EFFORT he has been giving on defense. I don’t believe I have EVER seen an NBA player scramble, switch, and sprint to different assignments as much as Fred does. Absolutely incredible. Yes, Fred got beat twice tonight on two back door cuts but he saves 8x that amount of points with his defensive effort.
He is just an incredibly good basketball player. Maybe not the most physically gifted, but damn is he good.The mountains are calling, and I must go.
