As the third quarter of the game ended, Raptors fans received both good news and bad news.
The good news was that Casey, through a lineup adjustment, had substituted Scola with Terrence Ross, stabilizing the situation on the court and preventing the Cavaliers from taking the game away in the third quarter with a run;
The bad news was that because the Raptors still held hope for victory, it meant that Hansen, having already scored 51 points by the end of the third quarter, would continue to play in the fourth, significantly increasing their chances of becoming the new background board.
While the Raptors managed to keep the score tied in the fourth quarter with the leadership of Corey Joseph and Patrick Patterson, many fans couldn't help but want to call Casey.
After all, the victory or loss of a playoff game is just temporary, but becoming the new background board is forever!
