At least Miami won’t have a chance to injure our players.
I fully expect one of Tatum, Brown, Kemba or Smart to get taken out.
The guards by an illegal screen by Bam or something cheap by Gragic and the wings by an out of control Olynyk.

I really can't believe how much I hate Siakam right now. I'd probably vote for Trump before him.

The Warriors would have to be brain dead to offer that. You're dreaming if you think Siakam gets us a lottery pick.

Im the end all other teams but one will be disappointed, but cant say proud of the fight and heart - im happy to say this team gave it its all.

Still the champs go watch game 7 vs Philly or game 3 vs bucks or game 6 for warriors

It will help, that's what winning championships does.

I wonder would the Sixers give us Embiid for Trashcal? He is not happy in Philly.

Great idea. Makes sense for both teams.

The Toronto Boston curse continues. Fall short in a game 7 in heartbreaking fashion is getting old.

siakam really broke my heart how bad he was. When they kept giving him looks in the fourth we were done.

Nurse with some mind boggling decisions. Consistently going back to Gasol, at one point having Gasol and Ibaka?? He was really willing to go down with the ship with Siakam.

Proves anyone can put up numbers if the coach let's you just throw up shots.

I'm a pascal fan but man....so disappointing. He better come back hungry because this really hurt

I'd like to thank RHJ for his service, and whomever else was pretending to be an SF whenever OG was off the court. Maybe RHJ will want to stay, but more likely he goes and chases bigger bucks somewhere else.

I really hope we can bring FVV back, and a competent starting center. Marc is so good at some things, but so bad at others. His shooting touch is gone. I don't trust him to make shots in the restricted area. Ibaka being able to make 3s was huge this season. But I sure as hell don't want to pay him big bucks to be our worst +/- player for the next four years.

We have lots of interesting parts to rebuild with. Unfortunately most of our interesting parts don't have the size to compete with the Celtics.

I'm pulling for Denver for the rest of the playoffs. Clippers probably take it all though.

It sucks, because I think we were better than the Heat. Could have had another trip to the finals. I blame the refs as much as some sucks Raptor shooting this series, for our not advancing.

He's simply not ready to be the go-to-guy. I believe he will get there. this was always a retool year, a victory lap for the guys who won a chip. Raptors were not suppose to be in a game 7 against a super talented Celtics.

Have some class and have some dignity. you can't win every year and you can win without a superstar, plain and simple.


It's just a little painful to hear that he didn't touch a basketball for 3 months, and you got 30 million a yr.

Then proceeded to never use it again and put Gasol back in for the next quarter where we choked that lead and trailed by 10 the rest of the game. I have a theory that Nurse just wanted to go home and was sick of living in a hotel.


He has a lot to answer for. Kept using line-ups that were getting slammed. Then when stuff was working he went away from it. It's game 7 Nurse, not game 1.

You bring that bull to game 7, you deserve to lose.

Great season overall, proud of the team for that, but the performances in this series from a few of the players were straight up TRASH.

Nurse also got exposed in some areas.


I just wish Nurse trusted himself at the end. He's usually great on inbounds plays there was no reason not to take a timeout in my opinion. Gasol wasn't as bad as people think and Ibaka was getting quick fouls, but I did feel that we need a little more bench rest for the guards.

I had no real expectations of a long run this playoffs TBH, but the way it ended left me a little sour, Lowry left it all out there game in game out and Siakam didn't take any of this seriously, even admitting not touching a ball the entire break, it just showed and it is sooo disappointing of someone who is going to be a main cog moving forward. This better be a wakeup call for him, because before long Lowry wont be there to carry the team.

Explain to me why Thomas was not used when we needed a 3 ? This series seriously has me questioning if kawhi had more to us winning that championship than Nurse’s coaching. You just can’t overlook the ridiculous gasol minutes. We couldn’t get a rebound but he was still going with pascal at the 5, we needed 3 and our best 3 point shooter is sitting on the bench smh So many coach mistakes in this series. It’s not all his fault because we made a crap load of turnovers but I’m judging him based on the entire series and not only tonight and the lack of adjustments to the starting 5 was mind boggling. Stevens was constantly making adjustments while he continued to roll out pascal and gasol smh

I hope Serge is choking Pascal in the locker room right now
