Last night, the All-Star Game ended in dramatic fashion and everyone was taking a little more seriously than anyone expected.
We saw LeBron passionately arguing calls, a little more defence than we’re used to seeing and a lot of strategic play from the coaches. One decision made near the end of the game was to make a couple subs. Mike D’Antoni was the coach and he subbed Kyle Lowry and Draymond Green in for Steph Curry and Joel Embiid.
After that group failed to score on their only possession and then got scored on the other way, the Trail Blazers shared out these two tweets.
There’s no doubt that Raptors fans are going to take a little offence to this one, considering that the spot that their suggesting Lillard should have been subbed in for would have been Lowry’s. They clearly felt the same way moments later when Steph Curry was subbed back in along with Klay Thompson.
Lillard was on fire in the All-Star game, putting up 21 points in 21 minutes for Team Curry, and Kyle Lowry didn’t have a great game, going 0-for-8 from three.
Still, we’re sure Raptors fans will defend their point guard to the end.
