The Original Gangster kid did a fantastic **** job on him. Best I've seen in a while. Siakam also.

Raptors have the pieces man..they just don't have the stones to dance with the king. Specially Lowry. Dude isn't comfortable out there against the Cavs...he's just not a big game player.

It comes down to 1 issue with the Raps.

They don't have the balls. Flat out. Simple as that.

I got about a $1,000 on Cleveland making it out the east. So I'm exxxtra involved. I view it like this & i've been saying this for a while now ...

Toronto got the talent to beat Cle but they don't have the balls.
Boston got the balls but are short on the talent cause injuries obv.
Philly has both the balls & the talent to beat Cle.

That's why I need Boston to beat Philly. Not worried about Cle beating Toronto. Cle Bos ECF we'll prob lose & i'll lose my $300 to see this Boston team in the finals lol.

I have never seen a team that Lebron dominates more then Toronto. I mean he kills us on the court. But we're not afraid. He give it to him, he's just incredibly good. Even back in the day w/ Chi & Indy. Like yes he beats them all, but they dont' give up nothing. But my god he straight up SONS toronto. It's wild. It is so so crazy to me how they treat LBJ. Like Lowry freaking out & calling a to last night in an iso? lol wtf?! Then lbj walks a rookie down to his spot for an easy fadeaway. it's just crazy how they freak out & he just like controls them lol. Wild stuff.

They showed Lebron's offensive rating yesterday on the jump, comparing OG Anunoby's defense vs the rest of the Raptors.

When OG is guarding Lebron, his offensive rating is something like 109 per 100 possessions.
When someone other than OG is guarding Lebron, his offensive rating is 137 per 100 possessions. 137!!!!!! After they flashed the graphic and discussed it, Byron Scott asked for them to put it back on the screen again, just because he thought he had read it wrong. 137!!!

With that being said, it's obviously not the first time the Raptors have come back from an 0-1 deficit. They've still got a chance......but boy, Demar and Lowry still look scared out there.

I also feel bad for Toronto, because they should have given Love a flagrant foul. (OT, but not really, but someone on the GB posted something like "Love giving Demar the mental health elbow". I felt guilty for laughing at that one).

Yup. Perk was talking junk to Serge at halftime since they're former teammates, and Drake decided to be a hero and jump to the aid of a 6-10, 275 lb man. Perk told him to sit down, shut up and watch the game, and I guess Drake threw a hissy fit and didn't want to get punked in front of 19,000 hometown fans.

LIke, he's really telling Perk to meet him outside? What a loser. And I'm sure Drake's bodyguards were all thinking "Oh wow. He's gonna make us fight Perk? Really?" :banghead:

Even Raptors fans think he's an embarrassment.

Also, **** his music. Dude is a simp.

Perk would have smacked him and his bodyguards.

Hope we still have Kyrie, we can beat the Cavs.

OK, first beat the Sixers.

Bruh if we end up in the ECF against the Cavs please Jesus let Kyrie's knee miraculously be healed.

Houston is beginning their annual choke VS Utah.
Craptors & Rockets are not meant for the big time.

Happy to see Dante Exum make an athletic play after an injury set his progress wayyyyy back.

CeltsfanSinceBirth · Post #314 » by **CeltsfanSinceBirth** » Thu May 3, 2018 2:43 am

Was just looking at some mock drafts and realized something................we basically got Kyrie for the 8th pick. LMAO

Yup, saw a mock today that had Carter falling to 8th. If that happens we got Kyrie for Wendell. Amazing.

Also, I know Jae has a lot of haters on here. But I am happy to see him be an absolutely integral part of this playoff run.

I would be happy for the Jazz if they’re fans weren’t so annoying.

I’ll always have a soft spot for the players who played with us last season. They did their job in being a solid team that attracted free agents like Horford and Hayward and we wouldn’t be here right now looking like a future juggernaut if it weren’t for those guys.

Houston plays too much 'ring around the rosey, we all fall down'. Every Frick en possession they try to sell something to the officials. If they actually just went out there and balled, they would probably get better results.

That stroke by Ingles is to die for.

I first thought the Rockets were impressive. But they might be frauds too. Warriors in 4 in every round. :lol:
