"If ever we needed you Toronto, it's now! Herbie Kuhn's voice blared out as the Raptors faithful chanted 'DEFENSE' at the top of their lungs. The Raptors stunted the Cavs initial play, forcing a timeout and another run at things."
"Overtime. The final 5 minutes were a crawl through the mud. Both teams were toggling through screening partners, trying desperately to carve out some sort of advantage, some sort of good look, but they both mostly settled for tough makes."
"The Raptors were trying desperately to disguise the fact that Barnes' energy levels appeared to be lower than zero. He'd been the best player in the series, and they couldn't ask him to close it out with the vigor of his shot making from earlier in the game."
"With the Raptors, looking their death in the face, RJ Barrett reached back for a triple that bounced once off the back rim, touched heaven, then floated back into bucket, for the win."
In Game 6, the Raptors struggled against the Cavaliers, with a pivotal moment when Mobley tied the game. The Raptors had a chance to win but failed to convert. Overtime was marked by tough plays and low energy from key players. Despite efforts from Shead and Barnes, the Raptors could not secure the victory. RJ Barrett's late three-pointer sealed the game for the Cavaliers, ending the Raptors' hopes in a gritty matchup.
