So far, the more Raps gear I've worn the worse the Raps have played. For game 7 of the first rd I wore old Green Bay Packers shirt that someone had given me. I'm not even a fan. But that's a franchise that gets things done. So its ready to go for this afternoon. How's that for superstition?

For the most part, I really like the makeup of this team. At every turn, they've surprised me. From the early season win in OKC to the 2 competitive games with the Warriors to our 905ers holding their own against the Spurs, they've fought really hard all season.

Whatever happens today, I'm OK with. It's not going to change that this is the best Raptors team in its 20 year existence. I know they're going to come out strong today and give it their all.

Let's go Raps! 1 more win.

Early morning game what could go wrong?

"Dating back to the franchise's first postseason berth during the 1999-00 campaign, the Raptors have lost all 13 of their playoff games which tip-off prior to 4 p.m."

Yea we know

Odds are stacked against the Raptors, on and off the court. Hopefully they break through history once again and win this game. We can argue about rigging, stats, history, and crazy Heat fans all we want, but at the end of the day, Raptors can overcome all that and still win if they make shots.

I wanted to beat the Pacers to get past the 1st Round, but I had a genuine respect for them. I did not hope for anything out of this series, to me they already accomplished enough by getting to this point. But now I dont care if the Cavaliers blow out the Raptors by 50 every game, I have no respect for the Heat. I dont think ive gotten emotional over an opponent before, but these guys are straight up ridiculous. The uncontrolled shenanigans by the Heat, the blatant disrespect by the Media, and fake Heat Fans with an IQ of 1... all of this compounded the most frustrating series ever. I dont care how they do it, just beat the Heat.

As much as we all hate another pressure game 7, this Raptors run will be the one we remember as the run that that won over Toronto and Canada in terms of fan support. Beating the Heat and getting to the Cavs is all gravy.

I think the golden age is now for the Raptors. This success had to happen. It did. They had to take advantage of no Canadian NHL teams. They did.

I don't know how these players aren't nervous...I'm nervous FOR them!

Hard to even say I'm excited, I'm turning at the thought of this game, might go into cardiac arrest if it's a close one...
