Is regulation being stretched to 60 minutes?

I mean...I doubt that, I just spoke to her. But if that's the case then good for her.

Had to get it out of her mouth so she can communicate with her mistake of a child.

Of all the flavours you choose salty.

Go drink some booze on the beach somewhere you twat. Don't you have somewhere to be to ship some coke?

[ocelot17]

Except they are not mediocre.

They have zero chance of beating Cavs and even less chance of winning a championship.

I'd say being mediocre is putting it nicely.

No one is planning the parade but how can you really get to this point by being mediocre though? Maybe they just play tough basketball?

SOMEONE has to be in the ECF by default. The east has improved but it's still bad.

Outside of the Cavs, how many contenders are there in the east? None, really.

Sure the raptors were the second seed in the east, but they wouldn't have the second best record in the west.

There wins are inflated due to playing so many bad teams in the east.

They wouldn't have a better record than warriors, Spurs, thunder, clippers, Grizzlies (if healthy), or even the Blazers if they played in the west.

So forgive if I'm not impressed by the raptors performance....

Dude it's not the 8th seed vs. the 1st seed like you're making it out to be.

If the Raps get JV back this won't be as one-sided as you think. The Raps play to their competition and actually play sound defense.

Don't be fooled by the Cavs jacking up a chit ton of 3's

[infinite11285]

Lowry >> Irving. ... Derozan >>> Jr Smith Bismack >>>>> Thompson. Let's see on Tuesday

Outstanding analysis.

[Bourne85]

Cavs in 4 maybe 5 depending if the BrickBros shoot 50% just once

[jumpstart]

this is going to be a snooze. I hate the east.

[itsme23]

It's amusing that a number of Cavs fan on this thread are more cautious than Heat fans, who all said Heat in 4 or 5 at the beginning of last series.

I have no problem with a person predicting a sweep in this series. But just remember, we beat the team, that beat the almighty Charlotte Hornets.

Spot on, Spot on.

[steamed hams]

Lol @ CRAPTORS fans saying they'll actually win a game against the cavs! Typical from a board full of Canadians.

Neither would the Cavs....who won exactly 1 game more than us.

On top of how **** we have been playing we are still going to the ECF. What is with everyone being so salty?

[Scase]

Toronto is going to get destroyed probably, especially if Derozan is going to play like a chucker

Careful now, he's your problem next season.

This made me laugh, good one!!!

[RaptorsLife]

Lowry has 46 PER against the cavs this year. He destroyed Irving the last game. He can win a game by himself

Are you still going? Wow, I figured you'd have something better to do.

As I type this my cock is balls deep inside your mother's throat.

Mods asleep on this one?

[picc]

Did the Raptors/Heat series produce the most hard feelings from fans afterward? (for a non-finals series?)

[6ixSideSniper]

They have zero chance of beating Cavs and even less chance of winning a championship.

I'd say being mediocre is putting it nicely.

So everybody except GSW, SAS, OKC, and CLE are mediocre at best?

In the NBA, you want to be really good (championship contender) or really bad (high draft pick).

The worst spot to be is middle of the road, treadmill, mediocre team, unless it's a young team that's still has potential and is improving.

Otherwise, it's just a complete waste of time.

Raptors just made the ECF and have a mid lotto pick and late 1st round pick to add to the team. I think the franchise is doing just fine.

[Duffman100]

Was the Raptors/Heat series the one with the most hard feelings from fans afterward?

Raptors Pacers were pretty bad too. Hmm...noticing a trend.

[Scase]

Was the Raptors/Heat series the one with the most hard feelings from fans afterward?

It would seem only from the miami side but, we won so who knows how it would be if we lost.

[ratul]

No, your problem is no-one will be able to shutdown LBJ . He will either score at willl at the rim or pass out for the open 3. No way the Raptors keep up with DD throwing up bricks with his high usage rate.

I think demarre can contain lebron. Perhaps just to slow him down. Like he did with the Hawks.

Like he did for the 60-wins Hawks last year when they got swept? When he was actually healthy, opposed to playing half-injured? That Cavs team last year had Kyrie nursing knee injuries during the ECF and Love was out completely. Now they are back and in form.

I would love to see a competitive series, but I don't see it going past 5 games with the Cavs blitzing with 3 point shots and the talent they have.

Carroll was down with injury but he gives lebron a tough time. Kyrie is key as is love as I said, but raps won season series and we have better rebounding. I think raps have a chance. We play kyrie well and can have cojo defend. It will come down to love and the rest of the squad. I think raps have a chance.
