The good, the bad and the Drake from the first round's most entertaining series.
Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan got most of the attention this year, but the Raptors' narrow first-round series win underscored the team's biggest strength.
With an opportunity to finish the series, the Raptors disappeared in Game 6. The Pacers won in a blowout, and everything will come down to Sunday night.
The Pacers are asking so much of Paul George because the rest of their team doesn't measure up. And yet, they somehow need him to do more.
In terms of talent, the second-seeded Raptors and No. 7 Pacers are much closer to each other than their regular season records suggest. At the same time, that fourth quarter also showed why that wins gulf existed.
After a crushing loss in Game 4, some Raptors know they have to play better. But they also insist they're not worried.
How we are watching a star being born right in front of us
Game 3 sent a clear message: the second-seeded Raptors are not here to mess around with the Pacers, who are starting to look like the inferior team.
Once again, the Raptors have dropped Game 1 at home against a team with a big scoring wing. Will things end differently this time?
