Kyle Lowry has declared himself and his teammates “pretty pissed” after the Toronto Raptors went down 2-0 in the series vs. the Boston Celtics.

“We’re pretty pissed right now, we’re down 0-2… This is not a situation we’d like to be in… But all we’ve gotta do is get 1 game and take it 1 game at a time,” Lowry said after the game, per John Lewenberg.

Lowry had a bad night in the offensive end, as he went 0/7 from the three-point line. He shot a hideous 31% from the field putting just 16 points.

Lowry also commented on his team losing a 12-point lead (66-78), claiming that was really tough for the Raptors, especially with Marcus Smart hitting five straight enormous threes to bring the Celtics back in the game.

“I mean Marcus Smart made five straight threes. That’s one that’s just, it’s tough, it’s tough, he got five threes. We played a well-energized game, we just didn’t close it out. We just didn’t finish the game defensively as we should have,” Lowry said.
