TORONTO • In their last six playoff games against the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Toronto Raptors were a cool 0-6. James was his usual terror, but the non-LeBron Cavs couldn’t hit the ocean from a boat and Toronto finished the opening frame with a 14-point lead. Toronto missed a bunch of opportunities to open up the lead again late, particularly when Jonas Valanciunas couldn’t finish multiple attempts around the rim, but Cleveland matched the misses on their end. “It’s not just LeBron James,” Toronto coach Dwane Casey said before Game 1. It seems weird to say that the Raptors would take that from LeBron every day, but one suspects they would.
