This game bores me. I watched the beginning and now I just turned it on again. I hate this series as well since I don't think it's our year to probably beat either team in a 7 game series. But if we had Gordon and Kyrie I believe we take either. Sigh......

So in a way it's self inflicted torture watching Toronto/Cleveland. I don't even think either is all that and we couldn't beat them right now. But I don't like our chances vs. Toronto with them having home court (do we ever win there?) and Lebron always seems to just plow right over us.

Boston/Philly is more exciting anyway since there is more young stardom to check out for the future and they are more fun cities for a rivalry.

Here go the Raptors coughing it up late in the fourth quarter. What is it with this team and being unable to execute down the stretch? Valanciunas goes from dominating to missing 20 layups and DD and Lowry have been invisible.

Serious thought. Is LeBron growing his ridiculous beard as a marketing/endorsement ploy for when he teams up with Harden in Houston? Seriously...look at the beard he is working on....he is shaping to grow like Hardens... I wouldn't put it past LeBron...he wants to be a billionaire one day.

LMAO at Tyronn Lue arguing that foul call. Love almost took DeRozan's head off.

It's like watching the Blake/DAJ/CP3 Clippers, but with half the talent.

The Craps literally had 4-5 shots roll off the rim.
They are cursed aside from the ultimate chokers.
And LeBron is simply not human.
And he almost made the GW with 0.5 left.
LOL

LeBron missed the shot, but HOW IN THE WORLD do the Raptors allow him to get THAT clean of a look? There was literally NO ONE around him. Unbelievable.

It is to hide his ridiculously misshapen, abnormally large, steroid and growth hormone infused jaw from obvious view.

This has nothing to do with LeBron not being human and everything to do with the Raptors being unable to close out games. Their offense goes to crap late in fourth quarters. They've always been like this.
