We beat ourselves. Mostly Siakam

Really galling feeling. This game was there for the taking.

Celtics didn’t win game 7, we lost it. And that hurts more than anything.

I'd trade Pascal for crabs. You replace him with a replacement level player we win this series.

We fought uphill against his abysmal play all series long.

I hate him and want him gone.

Imagine how easily we would’ve won the championship if Kawhi stayed

Raptors lost this game because they turned the ball over 8 more times, and gave up a crucial free throw rebound. Thats it.

Both teams were extremely close and raptors literally lost the series by a couple inches.

The Celtic's stars are both 6'8", raptors stars are 6'0". Thats the difference.

Kawhi always knew Siakam was overrated. If we had a real 2 I bet he would’ve ran it back.

Still proud of our team. Hats off to Boston, they really looked like the more dominant team in the series. Tatum's really a stud as well as Jaylen Brown. Smart as much as I hate him is pretty good offensively & defensively. It'll still be an interesting series between them & the Heat.

Rooting for the Nuggets to make another comeback. It's tough to root for the 2 LA teams as well as an Eastern Conference team.

This team is flirting with mediocrity if it thinks it can get away with featuring Pascal as anything more than a #3 option. He's got low basketball IQ period. This is not teachable.

Pascal is turning 27 next season he’s obviously not this **** of a player but there’s no possible way he will ever justify that disgustingly large contract.

It was a miracle this went 7 games and to the last minute. We were totally outplayed and it was only the Celts incompetence that kept us alive for so long. A future with FVV and Pascal as your cornerstones sounds very scary right now. First round fodder every single year. Remember when the Mavericks upset Miami a decade ago and were never heard from again. That’s us unless we somehow snag Giannis which is pretty unlikely after he saw what kind of playoff performer Pascal really is.

Nick Nurse is outcoached by Stevens in this series. Masai will have lots of work to do in the offseason.

We overachieved. Even though I hate to lose, i'm so proud of this team.

Battled till the last second. Fought hard. Will be back next year to put up a fight.

Congratulations Raptors! We have a bright present and future!

I can not wrap my brain around what happened tonight. It was like they wanted to lose and Boston was so bad that they had to try so hard that they made it obvious to anyone that can get it. I am stunned right now. I don't even, man

He's a better coach than this. He essentially became dwayne casey today. Everything we ever hated as a fanbase.

yo everyone on the bench are super limited. Thomas can only be hidden in a zone. Chris Boucher can't shoot or make 3s against legit opponents.

I'm just super disappointed TD3 didn't get to play. wtf up with that.

Sick of seeing "Uncle Perk" on our threads. He's a bum who posts whatever will give him the most clicks that day. He's as fake as they come


Naww...he is right...he used to say pascal was on the same level as tatum...he is acknowledging he is wrong! its fair


I think he actually said Siakam was better than Tatum.

I've got no attachment to anybody aside from Kyle on this team. Everybody aside from him can go for all I care.
