How do Raps fans always find a way to make it about themselves?


So pointing out bias reffing is making Raptors ... Durant is getting hacked & barely getting calls while Embiid can't be touched and refs aren't calling flagrant for knocking guys jaws with his elbows...

Haha nothing really to do with you specifically. RealGM is just full of Raptors fans who have been complaining about ref biases for years. There is truth to it.

Not at all. It’s just a 12 point lead and very early. Make that 9 now.

A couple threes, a couple stops, things change so quickly in the NBA.

Yeaaaaa….no. It’s not some random dude on the street whos behavior we’ve never seen. It’s the weirdo attention seeker Kyrie. We knows he’s a clown. Also, I’ll report you if you resort to name calling again because someone disagrees with you :lol:

Wait so what I said is name calling but I only repeated what you said…? Lol ok

And no I think you really need to just reevaluate how you’re judging Kyrie. He’s been Muslim for well over a year now but just cause you don’t like him you’re calling him a clown and disrespecting others who practice ramadan at the same time

Bad start by Boston but it’s only 9 points. Just start the second quarter good and back in it. Nets are zoned in btw.

One more time where the Celtics threw everything they had against the Nets and they responded with a high scoring quarter anyway.

It's really impressive.

Reffing has been trash once again for both teams in the first quarter. What is up with these refs and trying to take the fun early in the game?

It would be funny AF if Kyrie came back out from the locker room wearing a t-shirt that says “Haters make me stronger” and was wearing sunglasses and had a big grin on his face and starting dancing.

People would probably suspect he went back to the locker to take a puff of something good on 4/20 if that was the case. :lol:

I don't know what is going on there (setting the tone?) but the reffing 1st quarters seems to be reliably ticky tack and bizarre, like you can constantly bump KD off ball no foul but a normal foul is a flagrant.

1st quarters have been really poor quality from a viewership standpoint this playoffs.

I called Kyrie a clown. You called me (a poster on this board) a clown. Keep it civil or keep it movin.

Kyrie has been disingenuous/lying/trolling/attention seeking since he stepped into the league. I have every reason (and every right) to believe he’s full of **** with regards to his mmm being Muslim. Especially given the behavior we saw from him in game one (during Ramadan) :lol:

It seems you may be taking this personally. I have nothing against Islam/Muslims/Ramadan.
