Raptors Discussion: v96| Playoff Round 1 vs Philadelphia

[djdev]

Wow, that is very good news indeed!

Not me. I'll cheer for Lowry forever but not when he's playing against us. I want to go as deep as we can this season, anything Lowry takes a back seat to that.

if we get them in the POs its a different story, but his 1st game back, ima cheer all dayyyyy. this will only happen once in his career(unless he comes back obv.)

 

[theaub]

Really going to enjoy tonight.

I'll cheer for him to play well and lose.

 

[djdev]

also, our next 2 games after tonight are atlanta and houston, bulls got celtics and bucks on a b2b lol.

we got 5th if we play decently! now lets go for 4th!

So are we gonna talk about the absurd amount of players that are consistently “injured” on the opposing team when playing Toronto

ESPN was talking about it. Teams are trying to avoid Toronto becuase there is a higher unvaxxed amount of players than we think.

I was thinking the same thing the other day when they played the Celtics.

 

[canucksfan]

Really fun game so far. FVV is playing great.

 

[Nylanderthal]

Phew, that was a close one (I decided to bet a few bucks on the Raps laying 10.5 just for fun).

Looking forward to the return of Kyle L-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-oooooooooooooooooowwwwwrrryyyyy.

They really should introduce him like that, just this once. Would be a nice tribute. Then again, this is almost a playoff game so ... maybe not.

Gary nailed it

Raptors players are subject to the same rules when they travel into the USA for road games and come back for home games.
Would be a real shame if these key players on those other teams continued to not be team players and avoid being available to their team every game possible especially in the playoffs over a silly little poke in the arm…

 

[canucksfan]

Solid half. Barnes is really developing his three point shot.

 

[Nylanderthal]

Ronaldinho is a very random (high profile no doubt) person to be in Toronto at a raptors game. Edit: I see he was at bmo for the TFC match yesterday.
He’s 42 he’s not still playing is he?

[Leaf Rocket]

Expected nothing but a beauty for Lowry.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Also Thaddeus Young is awesome

 

[canucksfan]

Heat have been shooting so well.

 

[weems]

That was a really good game but the Heat were unconscious from 3, cant really do much about that.

The Heat are a great team and playing in these games will only be good lessons for the Raps.

Strus and Oladipo were a combined 13 for 18 from 3 and that will almost never happen.

Could have really used OG's shooting and defense in a game like this.

Really notice the difference when OG isn't in the lineup.

They were just automatic holy. Yea OG's defense is definitely noticeable.

 

[Gary Nylund]

Very fitting to see FVV break Kyle's record tonight, that was cool! A win would have been even more cool but it wasn't meant to be. Oh well, on to the next one.

i knew we were going to lose when dipo hit that three. These dudes were just not missing. Disappointing with butler out but man you gotta love this team and how hard they play. Barnes is going to be a beast in the coming years. An absolute monster.

Yea, if they are not actually in Toronto with their teams then we know it’s something about the vaccine status. PJ Tucker and Jimmy Butler were both in Toronto last night and in the building but didn’t play, so that’s nothing to do with vaccine status.

[canucksfan]

Officially made the playoffs. Want the fifth spot.

 

[trellaine201]

This team continues to impress.

 

[Apotheosis]

A near 20-14 game for Barnes too. What a talent.
