      Yeah, it’s still early and everyone is adjusting to playing with one another. I do feel the on court chemistry is further behind than I had anticipated though. Hoping it clicks sooner rather than later.

        Lowry’s balance of scoring and playmaking right now looks the best that it maybe ever has. Of course splitting so much court time with a trio of Green, Kawhi, Ibaka also gives him more spacing and kick options as well.

            Man, the Bucks are nearly bringing me to tears, and for once, it's for a good reason. They're just playing beautiful basketball this season.

                  Celtics are either loose or Orlando defense has them all over the place.

                    Eh Idk man. Kawhi and Green aren't chokers, they got a new coach, and DeRozan (the worst offender of the choking) is gone. Also their kryptonite LeBron, also gone.

                    If healthy, I legit think these Raptors are the favorites to win the ECF.

                    Plus Lowry was solid in Games 1-3 against Cleveland, he wasn't the problem.

                        Lol okay man, I'm just saying I wouldn't compare these Raps to last year's; different leaders in that locker room with proven championship pedigrees.

                          Surprised to see the magic beat the Celtics good win for them. I’m sure Boston will figure it all out soon but could take longer then expected

                            It's gonna take a bit for them to figure things out.

                            It's not as simple as adding your two best players back from the ECF team and they're gonna gel instantly like a lot of people (not you necessarily) are expecting.

                            Not only are those two working off rust, it's complicated because Tatum developed much quicker than expected and he really could be the #2 option that Hayward is supposed to be, so finding that balance is gonna be tricky.

                            Hell with his potential, that's gonna be Tatum's team sooner rather than later. Kyrie is a killer but so is Tatum.

                              Is Lowry really a huge culprit of the choking in the playoffs though? He’s definitely had some moments, but 99% of the players in the playoffs perform worse than they do in the regular season, and Lowry even last year provided a decent balance of scoring, defense, and playmaking. At the end of the day DeRozan was the iso scorer who couldn’t score. Lowry outplayed him last year and in 2016 in the post season.
