Is it a 20-year breakthrough or the road to nowhere? Whatever it is, the Toronto Raptors whipped the Miami Heat 116-89 Sunday night to advance to the NBA Eastern Conference finals for the first time in 21 years. “Just the things that we’d been through this year, and how hard we’ve worked,” Lowry said. “Just an emotional time, just being able to sit there and relax, and kind of breathe.” Now it’s on to another gruelling series with the Cleveland Cavaliers. If the Raptors can win that series, they get to compete for the NBA championship.
