Raptors Discussion: v91 - NBA in restart plans

[MSZ]

BTW, is the 9PM start time confirmed? Other than one guy tweeting it, I can't find anything online.

TSN confirmed it, since game 7 will be on their network.

Never mind, I found it on NBC sports. There's still other sources that have it at 1Pm (or even 12PM) but I'll take NBC's word for it.

Cool, thanks! I'd hate a 1Pm start so much.

Like I said, ignore my comments in emotional times.

It's all good...we've all been there.

 

[Plat87]

The dude already owned up to making a questionable post, we're all Raptors fans here.

Yeah, I didn't see it.

 

[Eyedea]

Miami poses a problem in the sense that Jimmy Butler's the best player on the floor against either team.

Think I'd be more worried about the 3s barrage from Dragic/Herro/Robinson/Crowder

 

[Plat87]

I'm not even a Leafs fan and I can agree with this.

Bruins, Patriots, Celtics, Red Sox - they all act like entitled whiners.

That's what happens when you win something all the time, they want to win everything but nothing lasts forever.

 

[Cloned]

Yeah, I didn't see it.

No worries.

Yeah, ever since the Red Sox broke that curse and won that WS it's been insufferable from the entire city. It's like that one win turned all their other teams' fans into entitled whiners.

If the Raps win game 7, that Nick Nurse confusion on Tatum will be something Celtics fans won't let go of for a long time.

I mean in that case....he can do it again.

 

[Cloned]

LOL.

I must say that it's pretty hilarious how Nick Nurse has somehow turned into the ultimate heel of NBA coaches.

You guys hate Boston teams? Check out the NBA thread at the Bruins forum, pure comedy gold.

After the Pats and Red Sox cheating scandals, Boston fans should be the last ones complaining about unfair treatment. I'm still upset that the Red Sox didn't even lose a 1st round pick (or at least got their pick downgraded to the 30th if they were to pick in the top 10) for cheating during their WS season, that kind of special treatment would certainly give fans a sense of entitlement I suppose.

Bruins definitely get to play their own game as well, and that game is definitely not always on the clean side.

I would not concern myself with fans who have baseless complaints, both in Toronto and elsewhere.

that and missing OG's foul on Kemba. Obviously the officials are prone to making mistakes, but I seriously can't comprehend how anyone could think the Raptors have been the beneficiaries of bad calls over the series.

Yeah, it's kind of evening out after Derozan used to draw so much contact but no fouls whatsoever in the playoffs.

Here is confirmation

Yup that city has been on a crazy run since the Patriots won their first super bowl, if seems like at least one of their teams is deep in the playoffs and contending for a championship. Theres a bunch of 20 something year old's from that area that have known nothing but winning, they are by far the luckiest fans in North American sports. But one day the rug is gonna get pulled from under them when they have to revert back to being a normal fan and deal with their teams struggling like the rest of us lol.

Shout out to Ibaka. Without those huge buckets in the first half, this one may well have gotten out of hand before we got it going. You're the man Serge!!

And with a bum ankle too, he's a legend for that.

 

[Pi]

Ibaka’s shot always feels short to me when I see the trajectory and it’s been nothing but net every time they need a bucket.

Raptors didn’t come this far to only come this far. They aren’t losing to this pansy ass team.

Those big threes he hit in the first half kept the Raps alive.

Win or lose, I am so goddamn proud of this team, their heart and toughness is second to none.
