I think Cliff will try to get Vuc in some PnR, he cannot keep wasting their best offensive weapon by letting him ISO vs the big burrito. Also, Siakam has played well so far but I'm expecting a crazy game from him in one of game 3 or 4.

If the players come as confident as the Raptors fan then we will be in a very good position to win this one. unfortunately, I know that will not be the case as the players respect the magic roster and coaching staff enough to know better.
I don't see a blow out win like most of you think. I see a very close game with the raptors with the raptors coming ahead. Unless, of course, they come too confident.

Like I said after game 1 loss we will win next 4, game one we play too casual and that’s a reason we allow them to stay close. Game one loss may be good for us, because everyone turn to playoff mode now . I am not worry at all in this series. We are too good to loss to Magic

He showed up, it's just that Gasol neutered him.

When you have a fan base as big as ours you will get all sorts of takes... Toronto sports fans should never feel
confident or cocky. We suffered our worst loss of the year in Orlando and the Magic have beaten us twice since
then both times in our barn and one being a playoff game. The Raptors have not proven to be trustworthy yet
and it wouldn't surprise me if they lost tonight. The Raptors usually play everybody closely even the Knicks
the game 2 blowout was rare. If they played the Suns it would probably somehow be a 6 game series lol

I really think the raps will lose this game. Just not confident which Lowry will show up. Prepare yourselves for a loss folks

Re: Game 3: Shambles @ Orlando Magic 19/04/19 at 7:00PM ET on SN1/ESPN
Pumped for this game. They're going to come out hard at us. Gasol needs to continue his stellar play on Vuc for us to have a chance. Powell and Green needs to heat up, they've been quiet so far in this series and we know they step up big in the postseason. Let's go!!!

The funniest thing is that Magic fans were just as cocky and arrogant when they were elite in the Dwight era and now that they’re young and improving you guys got this fake humble ****. FOH. We can talk about this series however we want on this board.

Raptors had the 2nd best record in the league with load management all season, while the Magic barely finished above .500. Why the hell shouldn’t we be confident?

Looking at their game thread, there are not many RealGM Magic fans?

Orlando is a good team with a good-looking future, but I think a few regular season meetings tricked some of their fans into thinking they should beat us or at the very least take us to 6/7 games. Just about everything went Orlando's way in game 1 (red hot three-point shooting, bigger beneficiary of calls, Lowry with 0 points, Toronto as a team looking a bit lethargic at times and missing wide open looks, etc.) and that win made them even more confident. Both teams have yet to play their best, but I'd say Toronto has a lot more room to improve overall. Game 2 was a great effort, especially defensively, but the offence hasn't been near as good as it could be because open shots haven't been going down as often as they probably should.Spicy P wrote:Raptors had the 2nd best record in the league with load management all season, while the Magic barely finished above .500.

I want to see the Raptors handle the crowd as well as the Magic did in game 1.  Just don't get blitzed and give them fuel with a bunch of turnovers early.  Their crowd has been starving for this moment.  The only crowd the Raptors faced with any juice this year was the Kawhi return to San Antonio game.  Hopefully, they're more poised this game and take them out of it early.
            
                                    
                                    When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….
