Tonight is a do or die situation for the Toronto Raptors who are on the verge of ending their best season in franchise history without a win in the playoffs. Toronto is going to have to win this game on the road in Washington and that’s no easy feat. Game 3 on Friday saw the Raptors lose 106-99 as Toronto managed to shoot a meager 37.4% from the field. Star Kyle Lowry has been the less then spectacular shooting just 23.8% throughout the series and a low 5-22 from the field on Friday. Teammate Lou Williams has also had it rough shooting just 30% from the field and a poor 2-15 from behind the arc.
Washington’s point guards have been spectacular this series playing defense well and their game plan has been executed flawlessly.
On the Wizards side of the court veteran Paul Pierce has returned to his MVP form leading this series with his playoff experience. Pierce scored 16 points per game which is up from his 11.9 regular season scoring numbers. He had a game high 20 points in the series opener which included 5 of the teams 11 overtime points. Game 3 came down to the wire with Washington up 3 points with 17 seconds left Pierce managed to sink his 4th 3 pointer of the night stifling the Raptors comeback attempt. Youngster John Wall has also been impressive in the last two averaging 22.5 points per game and 16 assists while teammate Bradly Beal is leading the series scoring for the Wizards with an average of 20 points per game.
The Wizards have only won 3 playoff series in 35 years and have never advanced past the second round and to be noted they have never swept a best of seven series in franchise history.

Can the Raptors get it done in Game 4? We won’t know until the final buzzer goes, but we feel that Toronto has the emotional makeup to give it their all in this game. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that the Raptors poor shooting has been their undoing in this series, but the Wizards can do that to you. So how can they steal one in Washington? By playing aggressive defense of their own. They need to start at the opening tip off and not back off until the final buzzer.
