I'm not terribly disappointed about this loss. It's good for a young team who has gone on a winning streak to suffer a loss so they can realize what is required to be successful. It can be a learning experience. Also, Cleveland isn't a bad team. It hurt because despite not playing our best, we should have won that game (ooooh that missed tap-in by Barnes with tenths of a second left). Let's see how they respond against Durant and Harden tomorrow.

Anyone know the consequences of the Rogers Communication ruling?

Baseball team will have more shit potentially thrown their way....Raptors are guarded I believe

 

[Leaf Rocket]

I know what he is trying to say but I swear it sounds like...

Well if its not tomorrow, its prolly the day after that...and if not then possible the day after that. But yea it should be soon.

Ed Rogers stamped out the takeover essentially and consolidated his hold on the board and it was deemed legal.

Tannenbaum can still essentially overrule Rogers if he tries to screw around with the Raps. Jays are wholly under Rogers' thumb so that's another story.

its a shame really since jays just seems to having a good view into the future but if rogers does do his "special" handiwork well...wont be fun.

Shapiro seems to have a good relationship with Ed for whatever it is worth. Sounds like the purse strings are staying open. Doesn't hurt the Jays.

I'm not a fan of Alvin Williams as a play by play guy. Just doesn't seem natural

Might be still too new but yea.

Should we be worried or happy that even durant gave positive reviews on barnes

Meh, just lip service. KD lit us up as he always does, and everyone knows Barnes is good and will only get better in the future.

However, I was really impressed with Evan Mobley in that game they lost to the Cavs late - he is gonna give Barnes a run for his money for ROTY.

Hearing Boogie call games the last week or so gives me anxiety and reminds me of muting the TV during the Chuck and Leo days. C-. I hope it's just nerves but the cringe factor was face palmian during the Cavs game. Let's hope he has access to a dispensary.

Interesting when looking at the Canadian Raptors raptors ratings that they do so much better on TSN than SN1.

TSN is more readily available than SN1, is it not?

I don't know how it is now, but for me at least TSN was always on the first tier of cable upgrades (like with the sci-fi channel, comedy, food network, discovery, etc). Sportsnet 1 was always in a higher specialty package.

So it stands to reason that more people likely have access to TSN than do Sportsnet 1.

Gotta pay for the TSN package and SN package. Think they're both the same price so I guess you could say they are both readily available. You'd think more people have SN since they have like 90% of the hockey games.

 

[ronzigato]

TSN carries NFL, Formula 1 and NASCAR, all of which are in season now, Sportsnet does not. Wouldn't surprise me if that's part of the viewership difference between the two. It's not just hockey, it's bang for your sporting dollar.

This team just isn't very good. Can't use away from home as an excuse either anymore

 

[Eyedea]

What a joke of a review lol. Drummond made a ton of contact on Achiuwa's body in the air. I understand not calling it a foul to begin with but upon review you have Drummond's hand swatting Achiuwa's head + him flying into his body.

Oh well. Back to back 3s from GTJ and FVV

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Refs are nuts...but OG has been just huge! HUGE!

Bye bye philly....two phily teams lost to Toronto

It's the 2nd night of a b2b on the road. Obviously both teams aren't at full strength (76ers are likely better regardless) but this was a tough road win.
