Cause the Nets have those douches Paul Pierce and KG. Plus Raptors are one of those teams you like to see succeed sometimes (not when or if they play the Heat though, screw them in that situation).

On the other hand, if PP and KG win the title they might ride off into the sunset and you won't have to deal with them again.

If that happens I'll change my name to Trixie, Queen of the Fairies....

Because Jason Kidd, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett tanked the 5th seed away to get the 6th seed so they could face us in the second round.

That was brazen disrespect for the Raptors, and if their plan back fires and they get buried in the first round, oh the irony.

I hate it that the New Jersey Nets are now the Brooklyn Nets

It was much more fun to call them the New Jay-Z Nets lol

Rather see them linger in obscurity and unceremoniously retire on a lottery team.

If that's not sarcasm I don't know what to say.

Raptors actually do have the best point differential in the 4th quarter.

Yeah and that's nice to look at RS stats but what I've seen in this series doesn't make me too confident of that holding up. They're not a team that bombs threes and DeRozan, the player who they absolutely need to have play well in the fourth has been inconsistent.

Derozan is the only one allowed to land on his jumpers?

The Raptors are sooooo much more likeable. The Nets have douchebags Garnett and Pierce who are some of the easiest players to root against in the NBA.

I root for Livingston (coming back from the nastiest knee injury I've ever seen). Other than that... **** them. Go Raps!

Lol, it was actually a reference to a bet a Heat fan made in the past. We have a board member with that name now, minus the Trixie.

Heat prefer Toronto match up (Brooklyn, who has been missing all of their threes would probably shoot 70% for the series against the Heat or something stupid like that), and Nets players (KG and Pierce mainly, as well as Plumlee for me) annoy me (as well as most Heat fans I'm sure)

In which case I'm still happy because C's own almost all the nets 1st round picks over the next 5 years

I really hope the raps win. Miami would win but it would be really fun seeing the big 3 in such a crazy atmosphere like the ACC. The boos for Bosh would be insane
