It’s still early in Game 2, but the Raptors are already reaching deep into the bag of tricks to try and intimidate Cleveland off their game. Bismack Biyombo and Kyrie Irving gave each other shoves and long looks after a simple pick, and afterwards both teams decided to exchange words.
Usually this is the last, desperate attempt at an undermatched team, but so far tonight Toronto is actually hanging in there. Seems a bit early to start going for the eyes, but when you’re facing LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, maybe that’s the only chance you have.
