Is Toronto a basketball town now?
I think 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002On the night in which the Leafs lose in the first round again, the Raptors have advanced to round 2 for the fourth straight season. I'm not sure if the Leafs have ever done this (or the equivalent) since the Original Six era.
I'm excited to see how far they can go.
Lillard is cold blooded
Pretty sure we stepped on an Ottawa team that was as dangerously and young as we are now. We were the big bad bruins then and that Ottawa team finally put it together a few years later and made the finals. Cant win them all and if you could then its not worth watching. Almost like the spanking of Orlando. Blow outs wont stress the fan out but the win never feels the same.I think 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002
Please Kawhi stay in Toronto.
I have a hard time enjoying the success this season because I can't shake off that feeling that this is borrowed time more than anything.
Siakam is a huge key to him staying IMO. The kid looks like he can be a superstar on his current trajectory. I would take him over Tatum, Simmons for at least the next 2-3 years.Please Kawhi stay in Toronto.

I think the Celtics players share a similar overhype that Leaf prospects get. In baseball, I can't count how many over-hyped "top prospects" the Yankees and Red Sox have peddled off for stars. I guess it's a big market thing, I honestly have no clue but Tatum and Brown are overrated. You put them on the Grizzlies, would they even have half the hype they do now?It’s funny because I remember people arguing with DJQ and myself here last summer about how the Celts youth is unquestionably better. Siakam literally became something from nothing. His work ethic is insane and he transferred his soccer footwork to the court.

I like Simmons game for the record and it's visually pleasing to watch, as of now though it looks far more like style over substance with him.
Could you imagine what people would be saying about Siakam if he played on the Lakers or Celtics?

I see TMac on tv talking about the Raptors, I change the channel.It’s good that Siakam is performing like this in the playoffs because now he’s finally getting recognized as a bonafide all-star, potential superstar. Meanwhile TMac seems to be the lone figure in NBA sports talk that feels DLo deserves MIP over him because (paraphrasing) “he was already good, just had more minutes to inflate his numbers”.
If Giannis ever develops a consistent jumper that he has confidence in...R.I.P to the rest of the NBA.
“What I see in him is he is looking around and he’s saying this is the best team he has played on, this is the best chance they have had and he’s always been a winning player anyway,” Clifford said. “But I think he understands this is his best chance so far and he’s playing at a really high level.”
Wearing suits is fine if that's your thing, what NBA players wear is fine too. Cherry not wanting to make a comment about the Raptors players and how they look sounds about right though for the old, senile racist that he is. Stuck in his own ways, whoever doesn't think exactly like he does is wrong.He's talking about fashion and nothing to do with anything that you've said.
Unless I am missing something?
