The Toronto Raptors are one victory away from reaching their first-ever Eastern Conference Finals in franchise history.
Ever since 24-year-old Vince Carter led them to the second round in 2001, the Raptors have received swift first-round ejections in their past five playoff appearances. They finally exorcised those demons by booting the Indiana Pacers in seven games in the first round, but the No. 2 seed now has its sights set a step further.
Despite lukewarm offensive production from their star guards, the Raptors can advance to the conference finals by beating the Miami Heat in Game 6 on Friday night. If they can't wrap up the physical, low-scoring series in South Beach, they'll return to Canada for a winner-take-all Game 7 on Sunday.
As long as each side can assemble enough healthy players, this hotly contested series is in store for another intense showdown.
