""We've also got to learn how when we have a 10-point lead, how do we stay desperate in those moments? How do we make that 10-point lead a 15- or 20-point lead? We gotta stay in the moment and present and really compete every single possession down the stretch.""
""Letting a 10-point lead slip away in the fourth quarter with the season on the line doesn't look great. But we should still cut the Raptors' some slack.""
RJ Barrett's game-winning 3-pointer in overtime extended the Raptors' season, showcasing his composure under pressure. Despite leading by 11 points entering the fourth quarter, the Raptors allowed the game to tie, emphasizing the need for improvement in maintaining leads. Coach Darko Rajaković stressed the importance of staying competitive and focused during critical moments. The team's youth and inexperience were evident, as many players were in their first playoff run, with Barrett often being the oldest on the court.
