Wizards vs. Raptors, 2015 NBA playoffs: Time, TV schedule and online streaming for Game 2

The Raptors need a win at home in Game 2 in order to travel to Washington with their chances to advance still intact.

The Wizards edged out the Raptors in overtime in Game 1 to steal home-court advantage. Game 2 could shape how the series progresses, as another Wizards win would put them in perfect position going back to Washington. It's an early do-or-die situation for Toronto, which simply can't afford to drop two games at home and expect to advance. The stakes are high and it will be up to the Raptors to respond to adversity and prevent a repeat of the heartbreak from their early exit last season.

Paul Pierce was huge for Washington in Game 1, finishing with 20 points and creating matchup problems when he moved up to power forward. Randy Wittman saved that option for the postseason and it caught the Raptors off-guard. Now it will be Dwane Casey's turn to adjust and try to punish the Wizards inside when they play only one traditional big man, or go small and give James Johnson some minutes to guard The Truth.

For the Raptors to win, they will need more from their guards. Recently crowned Sixth Man of the Year Lou Williams and Greivis Vasquez hit some timely shots late in regulation but weren't effective throughout the game. Kyle Lowry had a dreadful performance, finishing with seven points on 10 shots and fouling out in the fourth quarter. He needs to bounce back.

Lowry wasn't the only All-Star point guard to play below his level. John Wall had some scoring struggles of his own in Game 1, which severely limited the Wizards' offense. Expect him the have a better performance on Tuesday. This series was billed as the battle between the East's best two lead guards, and while neither dazzled on Saturday the winner could still be decided by the play of those two.
