Raptors Lead Up

Love that we have a revenge opportunity on our last two playoff vanquishers. Beat Kawhi badly enough to flee westward.

Are you going to their board or something? The ones here have been fine.

General board. Most of them are fine, but some of them annoy me more than any other fan base.

I actually like most Toronto fans and feel for them having suffered thru a lot of disappointment. But we owe them

Yeah Raptors fans are totally fine. They have their share of **** but so does every fanbase. They've been humbled enough in the playoffs where I will at least be able to muster up some happiness for them if they win.

If you look at what other Raptors fans are saying, a lot of them actually concede that the Bucks might win, some even think it will be a lopsided series.

Compare this to Celtics fans who were incredulous of the idea that the lowly Bucks and their lack of Playoff Experience could beat them. I've never seen a East 4-seed act so cocky and entitled to beating a 1-seed, which is what would have made it so hard to stomach if we lost.

People are really worried about Gasol? Sure, he can have a good game but hes a shell of himself. Hes averaging 8.6/5.5 in 31 MPG this playoffs

Twitter Toronto fans are the worst, no doubt.

And we should acknowledge there is an element MKE fans being over confident as well. Some with some snide comments, but not many. For the most part it's bucks fans being confident and supporting with the mounds of data behind it. Then the other side takes it as cocky. I mean, basically whatever point a Tor fan has can easily be countereds so it comes off as talking down to them. To me, it's only cocky if it's condescending or some dumb "playoff experience" type of commentary that has no legit backing so it comes off as just talking trash.

Yeah, their fans have plenty of reason to be optimistic. All regular season there were three great teams - The Bucks, the Raptors and the Warriors. I definitely think we should be the favorites in this series (and are) but there's no reason they shouldn't have hope on their side. This isn't the Pistons or Celtics we're talking about.

If you were to swap coaches, the Raptors would probably win easily. Unfortunately, Nurse is in over his head and has the team playing like a rusty tricycle. While Toronto might win a game, I don't expect this series to even be competitive.

Go to the general forum. Their arrogance is off the charts.

I've seen a lot of Raptors fans say that they think the Bucks will win the series. I've seen zero Bucks fans say that they think the Raptors will win the series.

MG is down right modest compared to the Raptors fans I have been dealing with.

They really aren’t. There are a few homers, but I’ve seen just as many predicting the Raptors lose.

Why would the Bucks fans think the Raptors will win the series when the Bucks have the better record, won 3 of 4 during the regular season, have rolled through tthe playoffs so far, and are the #1 seed? A Bucks fan would have to be out of their mind to think the Raptors would win the series after all that. Makes sense that the fans of the #2 team might thing that the #1 seeded team would win the series though.

You obviously haven't dealt with the fans I have. There absolutely is arrogance there.

Eh, I've read some of your interactions over there and no one is saying anything outlandish to you. They are looking for reasons to trust their team just like we are.
