Everyone sitting in the lower level, needs to bring a mirror and face it towards the Raptors bench

Im sorry i cant accept that without lowry this team will be a first round exit. We need him to string together last year game 5 performances to beat Paul Pierce and the wiz. He's the only one on this team that has best chance to be the "it" player and raps need him to overcome his recent struggle to achieve his "it" version (mvp level)

Raps in 7. I expect randy is going to gift us a few wins with his coaching decisions :)

Great GT BrunoSkull!! Unfortunately pretty game threads will not make this team any better. Time to tank the next 3 games and get Casey the F*** out of here.

I feel bad for Kyle maaaan. He's obviously nowhere close to 100%. dudes lost a step and then some. Back issues aint nothing to play with. I remember his 3rd game back from the injury vs Celtics he was falling on his back over and over. **** was making me cringe. Him and Amir both look like ready to just keel over.

its not that he's not close to 100%… I'm pretty sure he was hurt a lot last year as well… he's just not playing well… he can't make 3s, which was the main reason he was so effective last year.

This is just a moronic statement, it's the **** playoffs the word "tank" should be banned from this board during this time.

**** the Wizards and **** Nene.

It's refreshing to see someone from another fanbase, not hate us inexplicably. I think it is because either we are Canadian, or a small minority of raps "fans" troll on other boards. They don't represent the board as a whole, but I doubt people care at this point. :noway: :nonono:

These stats are difficult to take too much out of with only one game played but just for fun:

http://stats.nba.com/team/#!/1610612761 ... e=Playoffs

It looks like Demar and JV had the most significant impact. As I stated before (probably others too), defensively we looked good with JV on the floor. Hope that can keep up. Demar looked good offensively and defensively and probably had the most positive impact in the game.

LOOK AT ROSS'S NET RATING DIFFERENCE ON VS. OFF.

Beal's face at the end is hilarious. But seriously, Witt-less is a turrible coach. His players, specifically Pierce, bailed him out today (and Casey gave him some help too).

This is just a blip. I think we run off the next 4 and close it out back home in game 5. The longer the series goes, the worse it will be for us. The demons from last year's playoff will start creeping into their minds.

I'm getting flashbacks from last season's playoffs. This team disappoints me to no end. I couldn't help but get caught up in the hype during the pregame and lead up. This franchise keeps reeling me in man.

At least I didn't drop money to go to this game, although if I was in Toronto I probably would. **** these master marketers known as the Toronto Raptors. Win a damn series you pathetic franchise.

I'm sorry for my behavior RealGM. I can't help but admire the Truth and hate on this garbage franchise right now. Part of me gets excited when he goes off on us, he's my fave player of all time.

Sorry :(

I got more respect for the #truth than Derozan, at least with the #truth he backs it up with his actions..Derozan can say #disrespect all he wants but he has yet to prove with his actions.
Masai's to do list
Trade - Ibaka

Return to Toronto Raptors
