Last night's game sucked, Other than Kawhi Leonard, the rest of the team was terruble. WTF?? Big booty Lowry didn't deliver. There was questionable reffing but that's not the reason the Raptors lost.

Wowza, I wish I stayed up to watch the Portland vs Nuggets last night- 4OT!!
SR, sorry for your loss again. Our teams seem to be in the same boat.

Right? Though not a new phenom, Kyrie went to the line 3 times last night....that's 3 times in the entire series. For some reason he is the only superstar with no protection in the paint; the guy never gets the calls when he's clearly fouled. Nonetheless, we had multiple opportunities. Semi looked good
We'll see...Monday is a MUST win to have a shot in this series. Good luck on your end!

Oh man, I just read that Pascal Siakam has a calf injury and is doubtful for tomorrow. If he's not playing, we are done for sure. I was really hoping that this year the Raptors history of choking in the finals would be an old story that didn't apply to the new Raptors team that was assembled this year. I bought into Masai Ujiri's speech at the beginning of the season about how the past is the past, this year's Raptors team is "all in", we should enjoy the now and not worry about what Kawhi Leonard will do after the season, and so on..

I'm still cutting Steph the tiniest bit of slack due to his dislocated finger, but that dunk attempt?
Klay has also been stinking up the place on offense. That dude needs to wake the hell up.
I'm not a silver lining type of person, but even with them playing so horrible they still had a chance to win it.
Better get the next one!

That's what I saw with you guys down double figures...the wheels had come off but it was only 3-4 possession dif...and you guys charged right back...honestly thought Kerr made bad calls (should have called a time out and two for one....Steph had that run through the middle where hou let him run through open and he choked the lay up....that was where pride killed him trying to dunk it late...

Good luck. Ibaka has to show along with some pretty ferocious D. Get in the Embrats head

Raptors fans watching outside on the big screen at Scotia Bank arena today. I don't know if they show this on the US coverage or not. On a nice day, thousands show up.

They do...all the time. Dino fan base is strong. KL's a beast. Embrat sucked . C's turn to even series now.
Carter side note man I saw a while back you had an Aerosmith ticket stub from 1988 any chance you would want to pry with that I would pay top $$ for it would mean a lot to me
Thanks again

Embild was clearly fighting a cold/flu....don't expect the same guy next game

I meant in the other thread ..this is a pretty tight knit group.. when new accounts open up and immediately begin asking for things it sticks out like a sore thumb
