Must be true if it's tweeted by Rashidi.

Look at all those retweets! Look out Woj!

I was watching this yesterday - Wilbon named 5 or 6 teams that could beat the Cavs (including Toronto), then the old white went one by one and argued why they couldn't.. except that he didn't mention Toronto at all.

The Wilbon pointed that out, and suddenly they were out of time.

"Raptors?! Cut! Cut!!"

Kidding.... but I believe this, they can win a game from LeBron's Cavs, they have done so before. If it was LeBron's Heat, it would be a different story.

The current Cavs roster is beatable. If they get Love they will be in the Finals with the Spurs.

Of course they can beat the Cavs. Lebron isn't going to have those youngsters playing flawless basketball right away.
On Gerald Henderson vs Derozan:
"Yes. Hendo is quite a bit better than DeMar.
So yes, I do believe he's currently the better player and do project that will continue to be in the future. I would also take Turner over DD."

Raps will beat the Cavs, only because Wiggins and Team Canada (Cavs) will give our fans a hometown discount.

Maybe. The Cavs are full of young guys, and the Raptors have the continuity thing.

Return to Toronto Raptors
