Raptors feel the pain of a Cleveland sweep, wonder what might have been
TORONTO — Dressing at his locker-room stall Sunday, Toronto centre Jonas Valanciunas politely asked a scrum of waiting media to clear a space.
Once they moved aside, he fired his towel into the no-longer-hidden hamper.
“Good shot,” said a reporter. “Too late,” said Valanciunas.
He wasn’t the only Raptor to lament Sunday’s sweep at the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers after a 109-102 defeat. Or to wish that the grit shown in Game 4 had come earlier.
