Giving the refereeing that is clearly in Miamis favor during crucial stretches of the game 6 and the return of wide side, we are loosing in game 7 with no valancunis.

Also i dont understand why Dwayne Casey keeps pulling out Byombo to play very small ball against a physical Miami team. Byombo is agile/athletic center that can run and play the small ball game while creating some hopes for us in the offensive and defensive rebounding end. Casey keeps going with Patterson at the center and corey Jo guarding wade, which really baffles me when wade uses and abuses corey and patterson cannot grab boards like byombo does or block shots.

I hate to call it this way, but i am almost 90% percent sure we loose tomorrow. The NBA wanted game 7 for the money they can make out of us fans @ ACC, but after that they are going to make more money on wade vs james as opposed to James vs that team from Canada that no one knows.

Even without Biyombo being particularly skilled in the low box, man he can still score down low if they are going to put Deng/Winslow on him man... All he has to do is work to get deep position down there and have the guards dump the ball to him. He has shown that he can at least finish over some of the smaller guys and I wish Casey would give him a few opportunities down there. I mean he shoots a pretty high percentage anyway(mostly dunks I know) but still with Miami going ultra small its the only way to make them pay. Then again it took Casey it took 4 years to take advantage of JV's skill set so I guess its wishful thinking at this point.

Or also why don't we post Patterson up or something jeez, he usually has a midget on him too.

God knows Demar is going to settle for his low % mid range jumpers, and everybody else outside of Cojo/Lowry are just spot up shooters. Outside of one like 1 great cut by Carroll we really have no ball movement as evident by our 10 assists for the game - which is really sad because we have players on this team that can score man.

I still can't believe they won a game where a rookie small forward played exclusively at center.

I waited about 2 hours before tip off for game 7 vs the Pacers and prices remained constant for the most part. Still went though. But it doesnt hurt to wait till last minute regardless.

I'm jumping ahead but lets just say for arguments sake the Raptors do beat the heat and then somehow are able to take a game in Cleveland with JV returning game 3 at home.

Imagine having JV come off the bench for the first couple of games to throw the Cavs off? He'll dominate their bench and Bismack is actually a better match up vs them at times because of his ability to switch and contest Lebron/Love in the paint.
lol okay just a random thought but I really hope we win tomorrow and i'll be satisfied if the Raps win 2 against the Cavs (Deep inside I want them to win but I don't think its their time yet).

A perfect ending to our magical run would be advancing to the ecf where we face LeBron and beat him for all the times he clowned on us. After that reach the finals where Durant is waiting for us and he gives his all to his childhood team but falls short. We finally get our maytricks championship and use it to bring Durant to Toronto.

A shamblesland version would be us losing in the most horrific fashion and getting clowned on homecourt with millions watching. We lose Demar and Biyombo to free agency and Masai decides to send the best team in franchise history into shamblesland by blowing it up and the raps will be mired in mediocrity.

Lol hope #Team positive and #TeamNegative enjoyed this.

JV is already out and they want to keep DD in the game so we lose.

Two quick fouls on Kyle? Game over.

Having sold and taken big Ls on game day.. the trend I notice is prices drop significantly between 12 and 6 hours before game time and then stay steady. There are always a few last minute drops but there are 100s of people doing the same thing you are, so you may not get in.
