Yeah, sure. Guess what, the Lakers haven't beat the Raptors in the playoffs since then either.

Pascal and Norm were not good today. They need to improve. Lakers also missed some good looks from the perimeter as well. It was a great game and it's great that we won but there is still a lot of work that needs to be done.
Ska needs to make a comeback.

Thanks ok Perk. Lots of people don't like Drake. We won't hold it against you.

I said this when he signed with the Clips, but I'll say it again. 20 years from now, "What if Kawhi had stayed with the Raptors?' is going to be one of those counterfactuals that sports-fans debate forever.

It won't be much of a counterfactual if Clippers or Raptors win a title in coming years (ie it will remove all doubts we'd win multiple titles had he stayed).

Irony of the Orlando bubble is it takes away benefits of Kawhi going to the Clippers (wanting to be home). Obviously no one saw the pandemic coming.

What if, what if...

Annoyed that somebody forgot to put the shot clock somewhere on the screen.

Also, maybe just me but the score also seemed to change a tad bit faster than what I'm used to. Almost like whoever's responsible already knew the shot was going in or not before the action on the screen.


Definitely noticed these things as well. Good job pointing it out. We'd score and I'd look at the score and it was often already changed. Not too much of a deal as the shot clock though. Shot clock pressured shots just seemed like really dumb shots.


Anyone else find it annoying that they kept cutting to their 'pre-recorded' fans for reaction(?) shots, while the game was going on? Almost as annoying as when they cut to an interview with some random person (like a baseball or hockey player in attendance, or Drake) during live play.

Also annoying was the random 'horn' sounds, as if there was an actual audience. Give up on the fakery, and do something interesting and unique instead, like direct mics at the court and let us hear the players trash talking each other.

Also, Leo should have stayed out of the bubble.

They could have piped in sound from Demar's wife.


Didn't they? I thought that was the horn noises.

True. Also Ibaka has the second most playoff wins among all active players, second only to LeBron.

I don't think that's true. Serge has 74 career playoff wins. Danny Green has 76. I'm sure Kawhi is up there too.

Really, what's not to like? Not one ego on the team. Ibaka, who could be a starter on many other teams, sacrificing. Not one ring chasing free agent, well except for McCaw.

If Kawhi had stayed with the Raps they would have 3-peated. They 3-peated anyway.
