The Raptors have given me what the Leafs couldn't in the last 50 odd years!! Great feelings. How crazy is it the blue jays have won championships coming in as a new team and now looks like the Raptors will do the same. Wake up Leafs it gets embarrassing. Babcock that's how you win, great coaches know how to adjust and they know how to use their players in certain situations. Learn from Nurse but that can't happen if your stubborn and have an ego. Well coached Nurse. Coach of the year?

It's too bad the young core players on the Leafs have bigger egos than the logo on the front of their jerseys..."overpay me or else!!!" Sadly, I don't see the Leafs team winning anything with the way the team is built and the attitudes with some of these young players.

Great to see...but I was shocked to see some of the Warriors fans lining up and scooting for the exit with 1 and a half minutes left in the game...Curry was taking his foul shot then and I think he looked from side to side a bit and saw some of the fans exiting...he must be disappointed.

Maybe the Raps just have a much better coach that is creative, willing to adapt quickly and doesnt play favorites.

It's too bad the NHL has a hard cap that makes it so we give a shit about what they get paid. It's the NHL that is greedy, not the players. For the money that these franchises make all the NHL stars easily deserve double-digit aav.

I hope Babcock is taking notes. Nurse is a genius when it comes to your in game adjustments and player deployment compared to the arrogant cocky Babcock. You play Auston, your Kwahi, till he drops in a big game 7. Elite players respond, they pick up their faltering team when down. But Babcock has to give him a shot. Without Babcock, we would have had 2 championship teams in Toronto.

There are enough threads on this board to whine about the Leafs without polluting the Raptors thread.

They also have Kawhi Leonard, a top 3 player in the league and best player in these playoffs, and a GM that knows how to make the team better and when to trade players...not "we can and and we will", then proceeded to overpay and buckle with the contract demands of his young players. Is Matthews a top 3 player in the league...why is he being paid like one? He gave no concessions to the Leafs on his 5 year contract, nothing, natta, and Marner is heading that way too...these guys don't love the Leafs enough, they are greedy...they want the good life in Toronto and the overpayments too, but haven't even won a dang playoff round.
