You all need a **** reality check. The Cavs are going to the finals, and they would most likely sweep us in 4 games. Never underestimate the CAVS, period.

Right now we look like we're going to have a tough 1'st round. Charlotte, Miami, Bulls, Pacers are all probable match ups. I'm most worried about the Bulls. I honestly think thery're going to tank for that 7'th seed to vs us. We are in deep trouble if it happens.

Our game is not to nice (it just won't translate well in the playoffs). Our perimeter defense is absolutely killing us, DD needs to get benched for his trash effort. Our offense is still heavily ISO, DD and his FT will not be effective at all during the playoffs (we've seen it already). Most of all, we've been choking in the fourth recently. This team literally can't close out games at the moment. If this keeps up, were ****.
A lot of you think Casey is a great coach. LOL! Don't let the team's success fool you, we've seen it already. This guy will show his true colours in the playoffs. You'll see.


This is some real talk all these positive posters need a reality check. This team isn't legit. Playoffs will destroy us. You're my favourite ball boy.


I've always been optimistic but I don't think anyone is taking the first round for granted. My guess is we face Indiana or Hornets if Bulls stay fit until the end. There is no easy match-ups this year, they are all about the same level. But if we are on top of our game, yes we should win a round.

I don't know why you would think the Bulls would tank to get 7th. Hawks, Pacers, Hornets, Celtics all easier match-ups. You could have argued this last year for sure but come on man you are acting like we are trash.

I don't think others are overly positive, think you are just on another level of negativity. Just look at your post, be realistic at least if you are going to trash other posters about being positive.

End of games, against weaker opponents we get complacent every time with a lead. This happens every time and it comes down to leadership. I blame Casey, I would absolutely destroy my team after a loss like this. And I do agree that we run too much iso at the end of games.

This loss was a result of poor rotations, some questionable refereeing, and Harden heating up. We're not going 82-0.... Rockets are a very good team.

we're going to be ok as in we'll get past the first round? just like we did against the Nets and the Wizards? :crazy:


Are you genuinely comparing this year to last... if you are you can never convince me you actually watch this team, i'm sorry.


Don't make promises you can't keep. : (

The fact that you would use the term "lol" in referencing amber alerts says all we need to know about you.

guys...we are 20-4 in our last 24 games.
20 -4.

seriously, 20-4. We are second in the EC with a 41-20 record. It didn't happen over night, Raps been doing great. Yes, last few games have been sloppy. That game at DET post-allstar sucked big time. We know how important KLow is for us.

Relax...we've got lots of games to go. Its okay, we are bound to lose a few games.

Getting Carroll back should address of this issue but another reason why they lost this game is because they struggle to guard the 3 point shot. They surrendered multiple wide open 3 point shots to the Rockets and they shot 13/30. Brewer, Ariza and Harden shot them back into the game and suddenly, Raptors had trouble getting good looks and were forced to take bad shots late into the shot clock. If they had a healthy Carroll in this game, they probably wouldve pulled away with a win. No worries.

I actually have a strange feeling he's out for the year the dude was a total waste of money, it's March and still no peep of him if he comes back right now it will ruin chemistry.


Well it depends on what you expected from him. I expected him to score 12-13 points per game, grab 5-6 rebounds per game and make 2+ 3 pointers per game on a consistent basis while guarding the best wing player on opposing teams. To me, he's a combination of JJ and Ross plus a winning attitude but unfortunately he got hurt right when the schedule starting to lighten up so they have a better record without him. At the end of the day, if he can slow down Paul George, Jimmy Butler, D-Wade and dare I say, LeBron, in the playoffs, lessen the defensive load on DeMar, and make a few perimeter shots, this raptor team will be tough to beat in the playoffs.

I just think "lol" is a bizarre reaction to hearing about missing/abducted children even if it does come with a "loud ass noise".
