Yeah, I trust raptors defense but they need to collectively rebound. Defense should stay consistent just need a dose of consistency from stars and new role players stepping up every game and they should be ok. One game at a time.

So, are we contenders yet?

They did? I had them winning the Finals since trading for Gasol. I think this is just one of those make up a narrative to feel like the underdog/motivate the fan base kind of post.

I still think it's true that the Raps will win, especially with no Durant and possibly no Iggy. I'm just hoping the Warriors win though because of the arrogant parts of your fan base, again, like Drake.

lol you're kidding right? you're one of the rare people that had the Raps winning the finals then.. most raps fans were happy with a finals appearance

Check my avi, from the day we traded for Kawhi I believed we were winning the Chip. Never have doubted, never nervous, this our year!

Patrick McCaw might three-peat

Only 90s kids remember the original Kawhi and Siakam

Ibaka looked drunk out there at times :lol:

His last play before the end of the half with his spinning falling down no look turnover :lol:

If Powell falls out of the rotation i will feel bad for the dude....He was one of the reasons we turned the Bucks series around....

Just for him to not play in the finals would suck

I know he's old for a second year player, but he still should improve for the next few years. But still. That was impressive.

No one because he's in his third year

Yeah but...see...like....ummm...

When you go and quote me, then it makes my mistake even more glaringly obvious!

Warriors came in thinking they were gonna get some easy layup drills like they did against Portland. The Raps defense is out here suffocating every opponent's half court offense

Raptors got some legit length and they look completely unphased. Playing philly and milwaukee really got them up to speed

Who da champs?!
