Raptors praise Normal Powell: He saved us. He saved our season

“F—, that was great,” Lowry said. “Thank you, Norm. That was f—ing unbelievable. S—. That was cool. We needed that.”

Kyle Lowry and Fred VanVleet thanked Normal Powell for his plays in the second overtime.
Powell scored the decisive free throws with five seconds left in the second OT but he also scored 10 points in the second overtime, had a key block on Daniel Theis , hit a 3-pointer to tie the game with 1:23 to play and added a steal that turned into an and-1 to put Toronto up four with 38.7 to go.

Per ESPN, While his head was still searching for his phone, he quipped, “Can I say what I really want to say?”

Of course.
“F—, that was great,” Lowry said. “Thank you, Norm. That was f—ing unbelievable. S—. That was cool. We needed that.”

“He saved us. He saved our season,” VanVleet said. “That is his trademark now. You never know when it is going to happen, but it always happens at some point in the playoffs, so he was huge for us. Obviously, Kyle was steady the whole night, but Norm really gave us boost there.”
