I think it will be easier for Cavs vs Raps. Let's see.

I will eat a rock if the raps win this. LeBron owns them. No confidence against him whatsoever.

Indy really blew it.

Raptors in 6, imo, but I dunno. They've always been bad against LeBron led teams. Let's see.


We took them to 6 with a couple of years ago with a weaker roster... The Cavs were unbeatable last year...

This should be a fun series. No matter who wins or loses, it's gonna be a grade-A cluster-f on RealGM.

I’d like to get my hopes up for the raptors but sadly they have no chance.

Raptors are the better team, but I just don’t trust them.

If the Raptors totally blow this series, Lowry and DeRozan will still stick around and Doof Casey will still be coaching the Raptors. Doof Casey is the NBA's Rasputin, he's here forever.

This is the Raptors second chance, they won't get a third. Doof Casey will blow this second chance anyway because the only thing he knows what to do when he sees LeBron James is sh** the bed and make boneheaded decisions.

Lowry and DeRozan each have to be putting up 25+ PPG a night if they want to win this series, because I absolutely don't trust Doof Casey's coaching to take the Raptors into the ECF.

Well on the bright side Love really can't play much worse against the Raps than he did against the Pacers.

Raps in 6. I think they'll finally take LeBron down.
Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way.

Watch Kevin Love miraculously average 28 PPG on 54% shooting from three. That's just Raptors "luck."

This is the best chance Raptors will ever get to beat Lebron....home court advantage, rest advantage, deeper roster, no Kyrie, and a healthy team *knock on wood*.

Hopefully the Raptors can eliminate Cleveland. This team is garbage.

Previous LeBron-led teams also had Kyrie to help LeBron with the scoring load and Raptor killers off the bench (most notably Frye) while the Raptors were weaker. I think the Raps handle the Cavs at home and steal a road game, either winning in 5 or 6.
