Raptors Discussion: v80|Conf Finals | vs Mil | Game 4: Tue, May 21 | 8:30pm ET/5:30pm PT| Bucks lead 2-1

How's everyone feeling about tonight?

Gotta admit I think the NBA wants this series wrapped up in 5 so Bucks can face the Warriors ASAP. Going to predict a bunch of ****ty fouls on Raptors.

I don't believe in these conspiracy theories. The NBA is owned by the teams. Nobody wants to get screwed over. NBA comish, just like Bettman, reports to the owners. Why would MLSE be just fine and dandy with getting screwed over from more playoff revenue potentially? Think about it for a second.

It's in the interest of the officials to keep the series going as long as they can. The more games played means the more paychecks available to the referees.

Generally, it's just CT, but the NBA remains the only league where under oath, referees have admitted to fixing games to get the matchups the league wanted...

Yea, I am sure the league wanted f***ing Milwaukee and GSW all year long. Or Milwaukee-Toronto in the ECF. There is no league fix this time.

 

[Alerion]

This late start time is killing me.

 

[MJ65]

This is a must win for us or else we are done - we are not going to come back down 3 - 1

 

[EpochLink]

What outfit will Drake wear tonight?
Will Urkel be in attendance?

Stay tuned for the next scenes on the next episode of...the Toronto Raptors

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Green and VanVleet need to hit shots tonight

Green does Vanvleet needs to get in an uber and just tell him to drive far far away.

GSW, yes. I imagine in the East they'd have preferred Boston or Philadelphia. I mean, they're not omniscient. Now that it IS Toronto-Milwaukee, though, I suspect they'd prefer the Bucks to the Raptors. Because American.

 

[Alerion]

He just yelled f*** yeah about 5 times after that dunk

 

[2CHAINZ]

Well Giannis ain't f***ing around tonight.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Can the struggling Bucks come back ??

These red hot Bucks will Kill the Raptors

 

[Stylizer1]

Gotta get them in early foul trouble.

 

[Alerion]

Nurse is trying to rest Siakam/Leonard by having Green pick up Giannis some possessions and Green can't handle it.

 

[Alerion]

They're getting Kawhi some important rest right now, he's had minimal usage this quarter, is sitting now, and the Raps are only down 3. Could be crucial for later in the game.

 

[The Apologist]

If Giannis starts any further back he'll be behind his own net. I guess travelling isn't a thing anymore?

 

[EpochLink]

Lowry stepping up.
Can we get the others to step up too?

 

[Emerica]

Reggie Miller is a moron

 

[robertmac43]

Norm shooting with some real confidence, his form looks so fluid!

 

[Alerion]

Green can't get any more open than that, corner 3s are the easiest in the game. C'mon man.

 

[chaosrevolver]

Team stepping up for Kawhi

 

[EpochLink]

Not bad of a quarter, please continue this in the second.

 

[2CHAINZ]

Seeerrrrrrggggeeeeeeee

 

[Emerica]

Ibaka beastin on the boards
