Raptors did not deserve to win last night. Maybe Jonas did, but not the team sadly :(

Still was an epic shot, almost jumped out of my seat when I saw it haha.

Almost jumped out?

In general fire is always a good bet!

But really I am very not reactive when I watch TV... so if I almost do anything it must be amazing :P

That was pretty obvious. If I as a fan sitting at home was quickly able to identify that they were running a play for Ross, you can imagine how easy it was for professionals who do this 24/7. It's crazy they had no backup to this play other than the typical Derozan iso.

so youre fine with 30 pts on 32 shots aswell?


lol no, just thinking by Derozan's usual performance standards (garbage), he played better then usual.

Why do people keep saying, "They look beatable." Every team is beatable outside of San Antonio/Golden State. Miami looks like the better team imo. And that's pretty much because Lowry is done.

account #18 for you? but you're right, the two players with the two worst fg% in playoff history, minimum 250 attempts, are taking us to the promised land.

So what was technically the miracle of this game?

The Lowry shot or Ross actually having a good playoff game? lol

Then stop watching if you are above this level of basketball.

This is playoffs, a time when fans stand strong behind their team, regardless of their faults. The only reason we are in playoffs is because of our fake stars, the only reason we are in a second round is because of those fake stars.

Honestly, your take on our team making it to the second round in over 15 years, is pathetic, and your take on Demar and Lowry tells me you have little understanding of this game, NBA playoffs, and just how difficult it is to win.

i've followed this team for a good half a decade now, being from the united states few could say that about a canadian team. i like this team, i've watched all their playoff performances in the past 3 years. that doesn't mean that criticism is disloyal or insulting.

"the only reason we are in a second round is because of those fake stars" - and i have little understanding of the game? you seem to be missing my point. i'm not saying they're worthless, far from it, but casey treats them like the paul georges or the dwyane wades of the league when they're not even in the same categories. the only way this team really has the opportunity to excel is for the whole team to get involved offensively, not just our starting backcourt chucking away. casey does not understand how to run this team offensively, it's been pointed out by every commentator from the u.s. including brent barry, steve smith, kenny johnson and charles barkley during our tnt half-time shows. they clearly point out or piss poor half court offense that usually ends up with an iso pull-up, no movement, no cutting, very little passing - we do however have great transition offense. casey simply does not have the affinity to use the players he has to an offensive advantage, all he thinks about is how to defensively counter the opponent.

very cute to see you say we're only in the playoffs due to two players, says where you stand.

Casey treats them like Paul George or Wade? What does that even mean. Does he massage their feet after games, buys them lunches everyday, calls them Sir and Master?

Every playoff this team has ever been in, always is subjected to this type of ignorance. You need to wipe your lenses clean and observe what is NBA playoffs. Teams lock teams down, offenses go stale, efficiency goes down, players fight to score.

Casey is doing a solid job coaching, as was verified by winning a series. That is the absolute only thing that matters. If we won shooting 55% from the field or 35%. Casey did enough to get this team past the first round, and now we are one of 8. I feel confident we are going to beat Miami, then we will be one of 4.

Your disliking of our star players, and how Casey uses them, means diddly squat, and if they get past Miami, it sheds a light on your poor perception of a 56 win team that made it to the conference finals.

This guy believes in Casey's offence lol
I'm in legitimate shock

Do you think we should hold onto Derozan by any means?
