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.


How exactly do you know this?! What if they wete just resting their older players cause they thought they were locked I to the 5th seed?


How could you possible think you were locked in when the Wizards were playing the tanking Celtics that night?

I know boston fans are on raptor fans right now. But even Nets fans will admit it will be hard for them now since nets are a bad road team while the raptors are a good home and road team. If it's going to 7 raptors are taking it. The one the nets can't lose is game 6. Playoff jitters is gone for the Raptors.

Nets still have the refs on their side. Lowry and Amir are dealing with injuries. Anything can happen.

Still not a good game for either team. This has been one hell of an ugly series.

Seriously though, time for the Raps fans to stop complaining about the refs.

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



The Brooklyn Nyets are a decent enough substitute.

Kyle Lowry is a warrior , nothing was working and he just willed us to victory. Vazquez was huge too

Raptors did a good job on JJ for once , nets adjusted so well to derozan and we couldn't find anything for 12+ mins

Good win, our guys battled tonight. Casey needs to be mindful of his rotations - Chuck's limitations should have him behind Psycho T in the rotation. It really is that simple, Hayes is not a good matchup in this series at all.

Toronto has piled injuries upon injuries this whole series and it only got worse in tonight's game. Superb resiliency. I thought they were done - very impressed with their fight. Lowry is one of the toughest players in the L.

They even missed some of KGs moving screen. But that goes both ways, Amir loves them too.

I thought those last few offensive fouls were pretty much on the money. I don't care enough to get video or gifs of them, but I think they'd hold up on reinspection.

Yes, it will be very hard for the Nets to beat the Heat while they sit at home watching Toronto vs. Miami in the 2nd round. :nod:
