Had a dream last night Toronto won 107-99 with Spicy P going for 32/8/4.

Praying that's the case Tonight. Nonetheless, I'll be having my eggnog prepped tonight.
 
Pascal Sikam has had the rude awakening that shit ain't the same without Khawi Leonard out there.

Win or lose this will probably help him improve as a player
 
Siakam has been locking up tatum and brown then contending with the fact the Raptors have to play 4 v 5 on offense because they're leaving Gasol open and loading the paint. If gasol comes out like he did in the third quarter this shit is over.
Siakam is actually bussin his ass out there. Not his fault. We'd be swept if he wasn't playing the d he's been playing.



Over the last four games - three of which Toronto has won - the Raptors are allowing 12.2 points per 100 possessions less when Siakam is in the game. He's taken on the challenge of guarding multiple positions and has had success when matched up against the Celtics' two leading scorers Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum.

According to NBA Stats matchup data, in 64.0 partial possessions, Siakam is holding Brown to just 29.6 percent shooting from the field. In 50.5 partial possessions on Tatum, Siakam is only allowing him to shoot 38.9 percent from the field. Both Brown and Tatum have the potential to get hot and go off on any given night; so far in this series however, Siakam has done a good job of keeping both of them in check.
