“This is nowhere near disappointing,” Casey said. “We are a young team and we won the vision. We’re third in the conference. We’re going to fight our butts off to win this series. This does not identify us as far as who we are if we don’t come out on top. This is one game. This series is not over.”


I hope he's not talking about the series...

Game 2 will be reffed a lot more fair and its on our players to step up, because if they do I can see us blowing them out. THe nets did what they had to do, steal a game and head home with a tied series. This is the time to look in the mirror, think and remember how we were a good road team. We can't forget what made us good, gotta get back to the fundamentals and get the next 2 games.


disagree. i think the first quarter was definitely a bit iffy on ref calls, but it evened out in the rest of the game. fouls were 19-23, with nets getting two techs, so the calls were fairly even.

doesn't help that the raptors are also one of the worst in the league at fouling.


I didn't watch the game, I'm assuming based on what many other posters have said. The raps played crap but it seemed (from what I read) the refs made some timely calls. Prior to the game, I did think of the possibility of the refs having a major part in the result of the game. Sometimes its not really how many each team got, its the timing of calls, if team is on a run, ruining the momentum etc I don't blame the refs for the loss, just merely stating that I thought of this actually happening before game began.

The raps will win game 2 and shut the doubters up temporarily...Brooklyn's not that good. Just recognize the mis-matches...

Ok ... So the Raptors lost to the Nets. However ... Indiana lost to Atlanta!?!? LAL losing to GSW, I can understand but, ... the 1st seed losing to the 8th seed. At home? It's looking like MEM might upset OKC, too. Wow! I've gotta see Hibbert & George's postgame interviews. Can the Thunder avoid the jinx?

Ross got in foul trouble and Amir was playing like ass, clearly something bothering him.

I dont know why casey would leave the whole unit out there.

Funniest part is lol Masai did this the day Adam Silver was in the building.. Masai + Tim are 2 guys you don't want to mess with.

Also, everyone is complaining about the raps, the pacers doe... imagine how bad it would look if they lost, pathetic.

League trying to help the rotting corpses of the Nets, by giving them more time to recover in between games.

Ross got in foul trouble but he didnt foul out. His defense and rebounding was much needed in the 4th Q. Dude played like 16 minutes and took 4 shots the whole game. With all that athleticism and better handles than Demar, why not use him to attack the paint or off the screen jumpshots

So far, the Pacers are the biggest upset of the day. If MEM beats OKC, we can assume the jinx is on.
