It’s no secret that Kyle Lowry hasn’t had great success in the playoffs. It’s been dissected by every NBA analyst and pseudo-analyst in the world.

Lowry poured in 35 points in Game 7, and that, my friends, is a new playoff legacy.

Bismack Biyombo personifies the Raptors. He was cast aside as someone who would never live up to his talent, and forgotten about by most of the league. But, now, people are taking note.
