Today is the 5 year anniversary of the greatest comeback in Raptors history and, in my opinion, the game that embodied why Kyle Lowry is the GOAT of the franchise.
In his time with the Raptors, there were two prevailing qualities about Kyle and his style of play:
1) Uplift the game of players around him
2) Never, even for a second, give up on a play
Those two qualities, along with his great skill as a scorer and defender at his position turned him into a 6x All-Star, 1x All-NBA member (should have been more) and, of course, an NBA Champion.
Kyle had many moments and games as a Raptor: his half court shot versus Miami, the game winner vs Cleveland, Game 6 versus Golden State and Boston but THIS game… is why he’s the GOAT.
Down 30 points and without Pascal Siakam, Norm Powell or Marc Gasol who were all injured — Kyle led a cast of role players to the largest comeback in franchise history.
Patrick McCaw, Chris Boucher, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, and Malcolm Miller, were all uplifted by the brilliance of Lowry.
Usually, I would do a video essay @raptorsrepublic on this topic, but due to some unforeseen life stuff I couldn’t get it done in time.
Regardless; I want you all to enjoy this moment and relish in what made Kyle the GOAT.
Enjoy.

The reality of reality is we manufacture our point of view in a theatre of our mind.
We take in data from our senses but it is just data, the brain renders a theory of the world for us based on the HumanOS algorithms.
But what is real?
This is the Phantom Limb experiment.
