Lets not be hypocritical. Let's see:

- you guys chanted when FVV was down
- one of your owners shoved our player and told him to go F** himself.
- your organization was frustrated with Kevin Durant for not stepping up.

Now who's the real classless group here?

Cheering an achilles tear that could cost him money and a year of rehab is completely different and no one from any fan base would cheer that.

If you think otherwise you're just a white knight.


Seriously what the **** is a white knight? I got called a morality warrior by some dude because i said cheering for someone getting injured is disgusting...like what? Am i missing something here? Did people laugh at each other when they got their legs broken in sports or something? Because i've played sports my entire life..i've never ever seen someone cheer that their opponent got injured..possibly career threatning.

I'll just leave this here. "Let's go Warriors" chants with FVV lying on the floor bleeding, teeth knocked out and possible concussion.

Agree. But it appears the Raps have the most. And not just for this particular moment.

Don’t want to say all of them are bad. But they win the battle on average.

It’s taking so much out of me not to troll y’all disgusting fanbase.. so you comparing a fanbase that was chanting “Let’s Go Warriors” to a fanbase that cheered loud when KD tore his Achilles & Lowry & Ibaka (Two Raptors players) had to tell y’all to sit y’all arses down & be quiet??

Go to bed kid, just like the Raps did tonight. Smh


You can dish it out but can't take it back? Was this appropriate to cheer when someone is lying on the floor with a possible head injury?

GTFO.

A sorry one at that, they will root injuries to get just 1 Cinderella story championship

But hey they’re not coming out the East next year, that’s a fact.

It's what they call you when you try to promote morality on the internet. You usually get called that by people who got their feelings hurt by what others did and now think it's cool and normal for everyone to be horrible.

Crowd is quiet for most of that FVV video.

I know why Raptor fans complain every game about the refs. They literally try to rewrite history and what is right in front of them on video.

Victim mentality.

I **** love Boogie man..always been a real one. I so hope both him and KD come back fully healthy..NBA will be so much better off with them in it fully healthy.

GOD DAMNIIT BOOGIE WHY'D YOU HAVE TO GET INJURED!

Cleveland was like on a “50 year” drought from a championship in all their major sports.. I don’t remember Cavs fans cheering players getting injured when they won back in 2016 or any of the other times they were in the Finals.

Raps fans got told for 2 weeks that it's a calf strain. Guy tries to play through, falls and Ibaka gets a dunk attempt. Obvious cheer. I'm sure KD will limp off or something. Keep in mind these are hockey fans and a calf strain is **** laughable in that sport.

But if you put a giant message on the videotron that said, "Btw actually he tore his achilles" they would all stfu immediately. Like they did anyways.

Lol, acting like Donald Trump, pretending like this wasn’t captured on live TV. Glad we all got to see the true colors tonight — victory by injuries is what you’ve been cheering all along. Enjoy, as you clearly are.


Acting like Trump? Enjoying injuries? What are you on? I don't enjoy seeing players get hurt... I'd discuss this with you but if you are willing to suggest that than there is not point because your clearly not reasonable.

Also the cheering some was for the fast break.

You saw a clip where the camera was pointed. I was at the game and know for a fact a lot of people were watching the play continue not Durant hurt. Shortly after they cheered for him when he walked out.

To think we ALL cheered for him to be hurt is moronic.


The majority of the arena was cheering for the injury. Not all, but most, clearly. Some felt bad and cheered him; some were chastened by the Raptors players, who had to scold their fans on North American live TV, and had a better moment; some were embarrassed to have been caught showing their true colors and tried to cover it up with fake sympathy cheers. So yeah, a variegated response, but generally embarrassing and shameful.

You got to stop with this “but some were actually cheering for a fast break” nonsense though. You really are embarrassing yourself with that implausible nonsense.


You say a bunch of nonsense and follow it up with I'm embarrassing myself..

I'm not sure you have read a single thing I said. I'm gonna let you shake your fist and yell at the clouds.


I was at the game and formed by opinion on seeing more than what was shown on tv.

You say implausible yet you than claim to know why everyone was cheering. My whole point was you can't know for sure what everyone was thinking.
.you're so caught up in wanting to have a reason to show outrage you can't see past it.

Your entitled to your opinion so I'll leave it at that.

I'm over the game right now. Raptors lost, GS deserved to win.

Hate our fanbase or whatever because of the douche fans that cheered the injury.

Maybe the Rasptors choke as is their rep, maybe Kawhi leaves

etc. etc. etc.

At the moment I don't care.

I'm all 3 angry, saddened and admire KD at once. I admire KD's heart, I am saddened about the injury for reasons beyond this season, and I am also mad at KD as well. I 100% blame the injury on KD himself here, not the Warriors. Imo, KD's heart got the best of him and made a bad decision, although an admirable one nonetheless.

We have a ton of fans so there will be a fair share of idiots out there, just like with anything else in large populations.
