Game 3: Raptors vs. Cavs
Raptors coach Dwane Casey made it very clear that there will be changes to Toronto's lineup in Game 3, but wouldn't elaborate.
Toronto finished the season as the East's top seed and were expected to finally be able to exorcise its previous postseason demons, especially against LeBron James and Co. So far, it's not going as planned as the Raptors trail 2-0 entering a do-or-die game that will be on the road.
Game 3: Celtics vs. 76ers
Jaylen Brown's hamstring held up well in his return in Game 2. However, Celtics coach Brad Stevens says Brown will come off the bench once again for Game 3.
Brown's presence has only helped Boston, which holds a 2-0 lead as the series moves to Philadelphia.
