The Toronto Raptors Point God Kyle Lowry the pride of Philly Hoops Lore and those 'Nova Wildcats went cruising altitude and caught a Jet Stream and went in on the Nets former All-Star PG Deron Williams in the first half. The Nets though settled down in the 2nd half and all of that was due to Jordan Brand's Joe Johnson trying to "Become Legendary" in 48 minutes forget 14 years in the Logo.

The Raptors hung onto win but it was a wild finish as Johnson went for a team-high 30 points including giving the Dinosaurs and #WeTheNorth Nation a Platter with additional sides adding up to 26 of that 30 in the 2nd half. Raptors PG Lowry scored 22 of his game-high 36 points in the 1st half as he has clearly been the best PG in this series and it would be safe to say a Top 5 in the East all season long.

The Nets with Andray Blatche at the line made 1 of 2 with Dray getting the rebound and moving toward a Corner Money ball then passed it out to D-Will. The only problem was he threw the Orange into then Back Court for an over and back situation. This was after D-Will had grabbed the Orange in the back court and chucked it looking like a game-winning 65-footer only for Raptors Big Jonas Valanciunas to goal tend the Orange. The over and back call stood up as the Raptors escape with a 115-113 "W" to move up 3-2.

Nirza Teletovic followed Johnson's 30 with 17 points and seven boards. DeMar DeRozan followed Kyle Lowry with a 23-piece and six boards. The Game 6 will be in Brooklyn Friday May 2nd at 7pm ET...
