They're about to talk about the raps game now for people that care for their useless feedback. Let me save you the trouble.
Chuck: "vallennseeooonas"
Kenny: "Nets still win"
EJ: "how bout you Shaq?"
Shaq: "let's fight, Chuck"

Can't wait for them to talk about the goaltend that never would have counted

We have no answer for JJ, all the other stupid mistakes are just that mistakes, but derozan has no chance against him. He should be doubled every time he's posting up, that's the only way to stop him.

Can't believe that meltdown actually happened, I was in total shock.

Yea JJ carved us up like a thanksgiving turkey, even in the third quarter when we were playing well on offence dude went to work. Oh well, all part of the learning experience, hopefully Masai see's this and does something about it in the off season.

Wait. Why is 50 supporting the Raps? Isn't he from New York?

And with the exchange rate, while he's in Canada shouldn't we call him "60 cent"?

so they touched on the goaltend issue, but only mentioned it would be a problem had blatche not thrown it so far

“Intelligence,” Casey spat, when asked what was missing in that nearly fatal frame. “That’s why it’s hard to win at this level without veterans.”

Too bad his veterans like Salmons, Hayes and Amir are the reason we blew that lead.

why all of those and 1 threes

WHY

never seen so many in my life. Is it that hard to not foul a wide open three point shooter?

He's being pretty hard on himself.

I would have never thought in a million years that I would have been that distraught after a raptors victory tonight. I was she'll shocked. I realize it could have been infinitely worse, but holly f*#k!!!! Series is 3-2, we pulled it out someway somehow, we just need to wrap this ish up on Friday.

F*k Brooklyn

Yep so we had our veterans in the game and they had their veterans out of the game.

But according to Casey it was 'their' veterans and our lack of veterans that allowed them to come back.

Classic Casey.

Btw, at what point can Valanciunas get that ball at the end for it not to be a goaltend? When the ball is below rim level?

We lost by 2. If Lowry didn't hit that buzzer beater before halftime we would have lost..

peralta · Post #937 » by **peralta** » Thu May 1, 2014 5:12 am

just got back from maple leafs square...lost my voice...lol i had a feeling brooklyn was gonna make a run...but i didnt think they would tie it though..Raps stopped swinging the ball and the offense became stagnant. Also they started playing the clock way too early in the 4th around 9 min...there was a full quarter to play. they shouldve played in the same pace like they did all 3 quarters...then play the clock game around 5 min left in the 4th.

When you're up 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc...with 1 minutes to go, what to do, what not to do. Example, up by 5 and Amir leaves his man in the corner to help out on a blow by going for the 2pt lay up is just a total lack of discipline and understanding situational basketball. You gotta stay with the 3pt shooter in the corner and concede the 2pts. You're still up 3, and they have to foul. Hell you don't even have to make both free throws, making 1 out of 2 makes it a 2 possession game...................unless you foul 3pt shooters and give 4pt plays like the Raptors did.

Despite the win, I'm extremely upset right now. This utter stupidity in the 4th should be the number 1 focus and teaching tool for tomorrow to educate these low basketball iq players.

You nailed it right here, I understand these guys aren't robots but they made almost every incorrect decision for the whole fourth. These are things that really make you wonder about Casey, it's lack of understanding of the situation and that comes down to coaching.

That said......soooooo happy about the win

I just re-watched the last 4 pt play it was all derozans fault

Yup, for some reason he half assed himself collapsing in on Blatche who was already being guarded by two guys. That was harden, Durant levels off ball defence.

There was 1 second left, and they had no timeouts. All you had to do was throw it towards their rim and touch the ball in any way possible.

INSTEAD, we(who was it?) throw it at our rim!! Giving them a chance at a miracle tip in or something..

Jesus christ, what a **** show this game was.

+1 Just throw it up in the AIR or anywhere on their side of the court.
If you see the Replay Livingston I believe almost steals it Fxxxxckin Morons

We really got Lucky this game

You must not have been a raptors fan for very long

Except Ruffin threw it with more than a second left on the clock.
