The Raptors might be the only problem, apparently. Health is a giant question mark for the Raptors. Lowry has entered the post season in good health one time in the past five years. The physical intensity of Lowry's defensive play leads to minor injuries throughout the regular season that he tries to play through. Lowry's biggest weakness as a player is poor injury management. Leonard hasn't exactly been an iron man this year. His strained foot and his bruised hip injury were not exactly catastrophic collisions. | ||

regarding the brittle Raptors... Lowry is questionable with a left thigh contusion. It was a bad fall on a circus like play pretty early in the game against the Warriors. Its the kind of play any NBA-er would attempt in the playoffs. Many players would back off from that kind of play in the regular season. Not the Raptors 21st Century Super Dave Osborne though. He'll try anything. Bruno Caboclo, in the G League, is averaging 15 points a game while taking 11 shots. he is averaging 1 block every 10 minutes. Maybe he was 2 years away from being 2 years away from being 2 years away. | ||

It seems he was like everyone else before Dinwiddie became a quality back up. "For that path to lead anywhere beyond mediocrity without a tanking detour, one of Marks' long-shot bets must pay off. A castoff like Spencer Dinwiddie must become their Danny Green. A pick in the 20s has to pop." | ||

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/25536887/trevor-ariza-trade-washington-wizards-phoenix-suns the headline says its off. "Ariza-to-Wiz off after miscommunication" the article says its on. EDIT: they edited the article and now the trade is off. welp, so much for that. | ||

If the Kings and Pacers involve the Suns in a 3-team trade involving Bojan Bogdanovic and Bogdan Bogdanovic, Sarver's head might explode. | ||

Denver has not led the Western Conference this late in the year since 1984. i think back then the "Colorado Rockies" were a crappy hockey team with great looking uniforms. EDIT: Big win for Denver with no Millsap and no Harris in the line up. | ||
