even if you win game two the nets still have home court advantage......

how do you have a better chance at beating miami when you went 0-4 against them this year?

White is being used to clear the palette before our re-branded colors are released.
I choose to believe this.

You guys keeping home court advantage is yet to be determined, that's why each playoff game is so big. Raptors have been a good road team this year so you never know when they might end up stealing one on the road, then again it is the playoffs so I can understand why Brooklyn would be confident with keeping home court, just win all games in the Barclays Center and then go face Miami in the next round.

So the regular season is irrelevant? Got it. I guess your argument about us being 0-4 against the Heat and that being any indication of how round 2 between us will go can also go out the window.

If you change your mind again and think the regular season IS relevant. Then I wouldn't get so confident about your "home court advantage"

Losing game 1 gives the visiting team home court advantage in a 7 game series. Its not complicated.

This place is insufferable.

That or do what OKC did tonight and alternate colors between sections (red/white will also go great with the whole Canada's team theme).

Hopefully they'll change it up for Game 5 (we're not going to get swept...I hope, lol).

Really Demar? Really?

Lol wow some of you guys are just so obvious with your narrative. Did you bother watching the other post practice videos. Patterson and Lowry said the same thing. He did miss chippies near the basket that he usually makes. Some of you guys are too much :lol:


Jonas just missed shots too. Why can't he just missed shots? DeMar is the only one allowed to just missed shots?

He was talking about the close chippy shots he missed that Jonas normally makes, he was never criticizing Jonas throughout the interview. Your dishonest position holds no water and misconstruing what DeRozan said is pretty low in an attempt to misinform others.

I'm more excited for this game than I was for the first one. The playoff jitters are gone so we should be able to get this win. Just need Demar, T. Ross and Amir to show up this time.

I really wish this was on espn instead of NBA TV here in the U.S. That's the one sports channel I don't get. Either way I can't wait for this. Vegas has us at almost 2 to 1 for this game so I'm feeling pretty confident.

Man Chuck is really going all in for the Raptors on TNT. He thinks we're not gonna be nervous in game 2 and will end up winning that game and the series. Shaq and Kenny both think Brooklyn will go up 2-0 :nonono:
