Remember when Rafael Araujo got stuffed by the rim? And we’re bitching now?

We should be grooming OG to take over the team, not Spicy Prick.

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.


UGH. Giving up that offensive board. Hurts. Hurts so much...


They showed a good slow motion of it, he hits him on the top of the head with his arm before he touches the ball. I wouldn't be surprised if other celtic "blocked shots" had similar contact on our guys.

I ain't even mad. I already considered this season a success, though it would've been gravy to keep it going. Alas it was not meant to be.

The Siakam slander needs to stop man. Raptors would not be a 2 seed without him, and his defence was still pretty solid for most of the playoff run. He's simply not ready to be the go-to-guy. I believe he will get there. this was always a retool year, a victory lap for the guys who won a chip. Raptors were not suppose to be in a game 7 against a super talented Celtics.

Have some class and have some dignity. you can't win every year and you can't win without a superstar, plain and simple.

Boston didn't need Gordan Hayward to beat us. They got Siakam instead.
I'm frankly shocked that he almost shot 40%, felt like 20.

We gotta move on from him because he doesn't have the mentality to be able to handle the hate he's about to receive.

As awful as we played, we could have won this game by just taking care of the ball. They scored off almost every turnover we had.

I somehow have a strange attachment to Matt Thomas only because he's as advertised and never disappoints when he's on the court :lol:


Agreed - Thomas showed the most poise (outside of Lowry) in his brief time on the court and played pretty good defense too

It's kind of amazing that Nurse went away from that amazing Ibaka Thomas Powell FVV OG lineup that put us up 8. Then proceeded to never use it again and put Gasol back in for the next quarter where we choked that lead and trailed by 10 the rest of the game. I have a theory that Nurse just wanted to go home and was sick of living in a hotel.

I don't think I've seen that kind of high usage/poor performance from a raptor in the playoffs before.

This entire series felt like every game where raps started off really slow and put themselves in a big hole and fought their way at the end... going 0-2 was pretty rough

We get a bad Pascal series and we win, probably in 6. Instead we get a **** train wreck.

Unfortunate end, they mostly did it to themselves with the turnovers and ugly offensive play.

Anyways, still proud of the way they fought. Celtics clearly had the better top end talent, yet raps nearly pulled it out.
