So I think, like...
That's going to determine what the series looks like, is how much were they actually able to learn from game one?
What did they take out of it?
I don't think experience is the be all and end all at this time of the year.
It matters.
It's important, but it's not everything.
Ultimately, it's like, how quickly can you...
learn on the fly and pick things up.
Like, to me, the disparity in experience here, obviously, in this series is massive, as big as I've ever seen in a series.
I mean, Donovan Mitchell and James Harden have nearly four times as much playoff experience themselves as the entire Raptors rotation, but it kind of reminds me of that 13-14 Raptors series with the young DeRozan-Lowry team against the Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett-led Brooklyn Nets.
The Raptors lost the first game in that series, too, but
They grew as the series went on and actually made that a competitive series.
And I think, like, tonight is going to tell us a lot about whether this is going to be a very short series or perhaps a more interesting one than we anticipate based on game one, based on how this Raptors team comes out and looks in game two.
