Raptors Discussion: v78| It's playoff time | Rd 1 vs ORL | Gm3: Fri 4/19 7pm ET/4pm PT | SN

Is this coaching staff for real? Switching is nice and everything, but why just switch into mis-matches for no ****ing reason?

Derozan is not going to shoot the 3. Have Leonard go under the screen and stay on him. Green can't guard Derozan.

That ref is brutal. Itchy trigger finger.

yea its something for sure.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Really great night in general! Big win, great ending, and a good tribute for DD.

I hope he ends up having his jersey in the rafters some day!

Looks like our first round opponent will be one of Nets, Cats, Pistons, Heat, Magic. I think Raps sweep the Heat. Charlotte will probably win a game at home (they have a really good home record). Nets will probably win a game, same with the Pistons. The Magic sorta kinda concern me in a way that may win 2 games. They look the best out of all of them right now. They could be going on a run. Who do you think will provide the easiest matchup?

 

[Albert Iafrate]

Best case scenario IMO is if we finish first overall in the Conference/NBA, and Boston overtakes Indiana for 3rd place. We then likely play Miami in the first round and avoid Boston in the second round.

Couldn’t have scripted it any better than having DeRoazan falling after Kawhi was all over him, his best friend stripping him of the ball, and the guy he was traded for going in and hammering the game winner.

 

[AllDay28]

my unbold prediction is that DD will try and resign with Toronto when his contract runs up .

[Lewenberg] DeRozan was asked about his metaphor from yesterday, comparing leaving Toronto to breaking up with a woman, and whether tonight was like seeing her again for the first time since. "Yeah and you be like, damn, she still fine as hell."

 

[zeke]

he'd be a decent 6th man I guess.

If you have some time and want to listen to something fun and interesting check out Danny Green's last podcast with Lin.

 

[Rogue]

The Raptors have become so good!!!
How far can we go in this playoff guys? Who is our cryptonite?
I don't really follow the NBA. So if you can explain like to an idiot!
Thanks, much love and respect!

Its a pretty sad day when you get beat by Ross

 

[McDeepika]

Record aside, the team hasn't been very impressive this year. They should be blowing some of these trash teams out.

Record aside, the team hasn't been very impressive this year. They should be blowing some of these trash teams out.

We’ve also barely seen a fully healthy squad all season.

[Glenn Isildur Healy]

I'm fully expecting FVV to play 25-30 minutes a game once he comes back

If you look at our bench. Lin, Ibaka, Powell, Mccaw, OG. No reliable shooters in a league where having shooters is crucial.

Record aside, the team hasn't been very impressive this year. They should be blowing some of these trash teams out.

18-13 teams +.500
26-4 teams -500
6th in offensive rating
8th in defensive rating

If this is not impressive, please keep it up.
