Toronto basically let the Cavs other players get going this series.

D- effort and humour in joke. Terrible.


So bad it belongs in a Raptors jersey.

If it wasn't for the refs the Raptors would have swept the Cavs by now. Damn them all to hell.

Man, LBJ with only 29MPG going into 4th, and KLove at 31, might be the 1st time another player has more minutes played going into the 4th in the past 4 years, lmao.

Closing time LBJ. Let's finish this off nice and stress free. please.

Hell yeah...i dont want the raptors to go down in 4...it just feeds into the narrative that the east is weak.



I’m beginning to feel the narrative is whatever the commissioner wants the narrative to be. This Cavs team isn’t that good.

First two rounds it’s been 5v8, first with Indy, now with us. Indy handled it better as our guys don’t normally have to play as gritty and aren’t used to it.

Maybe when we have LeBron vs Celts or Sixers the NBA will let go of the strings. Sixers can be the next generation of protected stars or classic Celtic winning ways were the ones to finally dethrone the King.


Kyle and DD are not showing up today...you can say it anyway you want...but they having avg games in a high pressure game. SOMEONE ON THE RAPTORS other than JV and OG have to play like their lives depend on this game. The raptors stars seem hapless...

I love how emotional these posters get. They deny the mistreatment ALL teams in the Eastern Conference face from the refs when going against LBJ. Yet, they complain when it happens to their team. Y’all need treatment.

Raps fans can't seriously be complaining about the officiating right? They're mugging Love and Hill on every possession lol.

the way the celtics are clicking I think they make the finals and Stevens will have a good plan to stop this cavs team other than Lebron.

Refs arnt the reason the Raptors are playing with no heart and turning the ball over and over again.
