The Cleveland Cavaliers earned their 10th victory in a row last night by blowing the Toronto Raptors out of their gym on Thursday night.
There wasn't much going for Toronto in the game, but there was a very questionable move by Kyle Lowry late in the 2nd quarter. As the Cavs started to create separation with a 16-2 run, the Raptors guard Kyle Lowry was seen walking back into the locker room.

He would return a few minutes later after it was reported that Lowry went back to just “blow off some steam and decompress.” Lowry was asked about the incident after the game, and he said it's nothing he's never done before.

Word in LR is Lowry left during 2nd qtr to locker room by himself to blow off steam. DeMarre Carroll “no clue” it happened, adds “that's Ky”

If Lowry went back to calm himself and get back to himself, it didn't work, as he finished the game 4-14 from the field for just 10 points, six rebounds, three assists, and five turnovers.
Game 3 is Saturday night, where Lowry will try to bounce back inside the warm confines of Jurassic Park.
