Gone are the days where LeBron thought he could clown the Raptors off the Court. He looked mad and frustrated.

We may only have one year left of Kyle. Enjoy every moment. What a game last night man. Thoroughly enjoyed watching the “superstars” being outclassed all game long.

They got more media attention in the states than they did here but nobody will talk about that. The Raptors opener Last night was on sportsnet one while TSN’s main channel showed 2 American teams battling it out in the MLS. Do you think the Jays or Leafs restart would ever be on a Sports channel you have to pay extra for in this country ? It’s either TSN main channel, sportsnets main channel or CBC which is nationwide. They would never throw them on sportsnet one but we love calling out ESPN (a channel we don’t even get in this country) for not giving us attention. Dude the leafs scrimmage game was on a main networt But but but “ESPN don’t respect the raptors” smh Buddy Canadian networks don’t respect the raptors, TSN and Sportsnet don’t even respect the Raptors. No way an American sports network from a city that Just won a championships is going to throw their teams restart game vs Lebron and the Lakers on a channel a large number of their viewers don’t have “but but but ESPN” “ESPN don’t respect us” smh When are these same people going to start calling out the old heads over at TSN and sportsnet instead of worrying about a network outside this country that they can’t even see on their TV anyways ?

Watch on YouTube

Nah Bell (TSN) has done pretty well with basketball. Most of the games are on the primary channel and they actually leverage a studio for pre/post game coverage. Rogers (Sportsnet) on the other hand is an issue.

We saw glimpses during their playoff matchup 2 years ago, but OG is going to make the league take notice that he's arguably the best 3&D player in the NBA.

OG won Kennoby has obviously learned from the fallen master Kawhi "Gone" Gin. If we scout a young skywalking player in the next few years though... Rough times ahead

Kawhi passed the robot torch to OG.

Terence Davis makes sense. He's poking holes in his mask. He needs to learn the ways of the Force. :starwars

When are we getting tomorrow’s game thread up? Apparently somethings going on with Butler and his status for the game is uncertain

Gotta smack down the Heat so they can beat Milwaukee in the playoffs.

I still can't believe the Raptors have beat the Lakers 11 straight games. How many seasonal sweeps in a row is that?

RaptorsNorth · Post #296 » by **RaptorsNorth** » Sun Aug 2, 2020 5:10 pm

Watching this game again on NBATV Canada right Now. Need to have a closer look certain performances likes T Davis.

More impressive than the record since January 15, is that the Raptors are 7-2 against teams over .500 in that period.

Still, it is wise to not get too high or too low after a regular season game. Teams are trying to play good and win, but W-L results in the 8 seeding games matter little for teams like the Lakers and Raptors. Teams are more focused on getting back to top form for the playoffs.

Interesting fact from ESPN last night on our defense:

PPG 106.3 (1st)
FG% 43% (2nd)
3pt FG% 34% (1st)
Steals/gm 8.8 (2nd)

Raps will be first team since 1980 to finish in top 2 in these 4 categories if this holds up.

Huh? McCaw has 3 Titles in 3 years. He obviously doesent prevent his team from winning.
