No, you must be since you’re providing nothing. But go ahead and get your posts up


You're right. Love wrapped up Siakam, put Siakam's elbow in his hip, went up for the shot and pulled Siakam with him all in one fell swoop. It's a good thing Love has three arms, 3 hands, and 15 fingers to get all of that done.

No, it was his conjoined twin.

That’s what I’m thinking - early bad games may have been cause he was still injured... Or maybe just needed to get his rythym.

No, yall complain about teh refs every team you have face this season, its ridiculous. 8vs 5 against the wizard, now its the cavs, am I right. You guys have 19 fts to the Cavs 15 fts. Go take a look at the Pelican vs Warriors series to see the disparity in fts. Now, stop complaining,.

This is the first time in a longass time, especially playoffs, where a Cavs player other than LeBron has been the best. Offensively Love has been great but he has been great defensively too.

Why does Lue think playing Hood/Clarkson is a good idea? Good grief...

First two rounds it’s been 5v8, first with Indy, now with us. Indy handled it better as our guys don’t normally have to play as gritty and aren’t used to it.


Pathetic. A soft, mentally weak team for a soft unstable fanbase.


Lol.

Lol Dwane Casey’s face on that Ibaka travel
2019 Eastern Conference All Stars

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet
Delon Wright
Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

Ibaka just slipped on his own dignity

Raps still undefeated without ref interference


Part of the reason is that the Raptors local commentators complain about calls on every play. The fanbase now has this idea that the refs are always screwing the Raptors over.
