"The prospect of winning seemed so perfect. An injury-riddled Raptors roster with a lineup on the floor consisting of Jakob Poeltl, a hometown Sauga man, a rising sophomore, and a second-round and undrafted pick were giving the Cavs a run for their money."
"Just as Battle emerged in Game 3, however, former Raptor and current Cavs guard Dennis Schroder turned into his FIBA superstar self with back-to-back baskets to push the lead to seven. This catalyzed a 9-0 Cavs run."
"The Raptors shot a measly 2-for-12 from downtown in the fourth quarter. 3-point shooting struggles is not new news for this team, but last night, another discovery was made."
"The Raptors have been putting pressure on the Cavs all series, and now know they can take this to Game 7 regardless of who's on the roster at Scotiabank tomorrow."
The Raptors faced the Cavs with a depleted roster but remained competitive, nearly overcoming a late-game deficit. Jamison Battle and Jamal Shead made significant contributions, narrowing the gap. However, Dennis Schroder's performance helped the Cavs secure a lead. The Raptors struggled with 3-point shooting, finishing poorly in the fourth quarter. Despite these challenges, the Raptors demonstrated their potential and resilience, setting the stage for a decisive Game 7.
