Come on, man. No need for this thread. You're inviting trolls and we're much better than this.
not saying that the playoffs w/o the Nets, but i feed off of the raps losin, it's the same result, no championship, for us the better draft pick........

no this sucks. Now I really have no team to follow in the playoffs. I'm still interested in Dallas (Kidd) but they may be gone too and Suns (Nash) but they are in the same boat as Dallas...sinking.
I don't think this year's Nets would have matched well with the Raptors. Raptors were mainly beat because like the regular season they could not control their own glass. The Raptors also allowed Orlando 3pt attack (not in small part to having to cheat towards the paint & Dwight on help D). The Nets aren't great on the offensive glass & don't have consistent 3pt threat either.
Could the Nets have won ? absolutely. Raptors defense is as soft as the Nets and Devin / VC / RJ would have ample opportunity to exploit it and Nets scheme vs Bosh is good but only as long as the Raptors 3pt shooters are cold. I'd give Raptors the edge despite both teams being inconsistent the Raptors are less inconsistent then the Nets. Would have been fun to see though....

simple they are our divison rivals........
Andy Roddick said it perfectly on his matches with Federer...
"It's not a rivalry when the matches have been so one-sided". Granted, the Toronto Raptors no way near have the prestige Federer has gained, but you get my point.
