Exactly. Kawhi is too familiar with the rims in Scotiabank Arena. Every game of that potential finals series would feel like a home game to him. Dude would average 35+.

I'd much rather face the Lakers.

Have ye little faith??

Yeah, that's fair. I'm very blindly optimistic, but at least I can admit that.

Would be nice is Pascal could get some of these calls in the LA game right now. Different whistle for different players.

Fam the Clippers don't scare me and the Lakers don't scare me either. If we beat the Bucks we have a really good shot at repeating imo.

It's cus they're both playing each other that they don't look scary

I love our team, but upsetting MIL is our ceiling

The Bucks are better than the Lakers and Clippers so that makes no sense at all

Lakers systematically dismantled them on Friday
Kawhi already showed the same last ECF

C'mon lol the book is out on MIL

Well I wouldn't agree with TrustFundBaby's statement that wouldn't take a game vs the Clippers. I think we could take 2. Just hard to see us winning a 7 game series vs the Clippers.

Perhaps drawing significant conclusions out of single regular season games is not the best way to go.

PG is a massive postseason choker and Lou is a complete defensive liability whose offense doesn't work in the playoffs.

If we're good enough to beat the Bucks, I think I'll take my chances.

What he's doing at age 35 is just unprecedented. Remains the best player in the league and it's not even really that close.

Kawhi limping off the court. Should have stayed a Raptor. We could have went back to back.

Nah. The Bucks have no other reliable star to support Giannis during the playoffs. Middleton folds and Bledsoe completely disappears like he did against the Lakers. The Clippers and Lakers are above them imo, talent trumps everything

Lebron said they dont want to get swept by any team this season.

Expect a Raptors loss on March 24th lol

If the Raptors didn't barely pull out game 3 of the ECF last year, the Bucks would have won the NBA title and this narrative would be completely different.

Make no mistake about it, they're an exceptionally good team with a far better system and more overall depth than either the Lakers or Clippers.

This is a stupid argument.

You can say the same thing about the Bucks barely pulling out a Win in game 1 off Lopez's lucky ass night where he couldn't miss a single shot.

Raps outplayed the Bucks in game 1. So if you wanna make the argument the Bucks shouldve had game 3, than the Raps should've had game 1...and we're still back in the same situation.

Bucks outside of Giannis are still on the fence in terms of star power. Middleton and Bledsoe are known to choke
