Toronto Raptors '15/'16 season

This game is rigged. See you guys in game 7.


bahahahah
at least you are man enough to admit

tv viewers?

Miami does not have enough force. I think the Raps will win it...likely down to the last 30 seconds

play of the night T. Ross DUNKKKkkkkkkkkkkkkk
 
That was a good game tonight. Raps brought the effort, but Miami just had a better team game, close outs on defense and floor spacing on offense.
Looking forward to Game 7 and it's a good thing it's @3:30 for the fans outside at Jurassic Park, but early home games have not been kind to us!
 
I hate to say it, but Sunday will be the last game of the season for the raptors. They just aren't good enough yet. They play around with the ball to much, then have to take hurried shots at the buzzer. To many holes in their defence, to many open looks for 3's

This absolutely half empty vs half full .... But I still cannot comprehend how do you rate this as a good game. They were behind for the duration of the whole game and all I remember is the constant whining about fouls. It's getting a bit ridiculous. Just play, the refs normally will give it to you, but not if you keep crying ....

Oh, have I said I am not feeling what DD is exactly doing? He's a volume shooter so he will always get his points, but the last sec in-air spins when he decides to pass instead of driving, are driving me crazy .... And I will shut up now.
 
So you are not a fan of your own city's team is what you are saying?

Yes, I never fall for the sports team patriotism of any kind. For me it's just an entertainment. It comes and goes, like winter season.
 
It's kinda weird and frustrating, because they do take so many desperation shots at the buzzer and take so long to set up their screen/iso offence.
Most of the 3 pointers the Raps make are with a defender closing out on them, and we very seldom have an open look, or they pass up on open looks. In contrast, you're right that on defence they do give up a lot of open looks and seem to have a porous defence for athletic like players like Wade and Dragic. That said, I still think the Raps are the better team. I think they can win, but they need to involve the offensive abilities of their the other players more. Carroll and Patterson and Ross should have more 3 point plays run for them. In fact, Paterson plays so big that they could have him as the starting centre and Biz backing him up, or the other way around.

In game 7, they will snuff out Dragic and Wade will have a big game, but it just won't be enough...
Go Raps!

I like games where the home team wins and the game is somewhat close, even if that means the Raps lose. I just like watching good games, not blowouts. I like series that go to a game seven, and I think 7 game series are way better for the fans and the nba, but obviously much harder on the players - good salaries should come with a price.

This was still a good game, with everyone bringing the effort, even if I don't agree with the plays that are happening on the court and considering that there are lot's of injuries with both of these teams. It was a good game because the crowd was totally into it and I loved it when they were chanting that the refs suck and Carroll promptly misses both free throws as if ball don't lie! lol

And yes I agree that Demar and Kyle take too many shots and overall it hurts us, not helps us.
 
Looking at a few posts tells me hoops has it's own language. I thought cricket was a tough nut to crack. Go Raptors!
 
Yea they had a 6th member, the officiating.

I say the Raptors suck when they do but this time we got all the bad calls and those calls add up to the marging we lost by.

I'm tired of raptors fans always blaming the refs like they're the reason they lost. Game 6 Miami wanted it and they had no defensive answer to dragic

I'll admit that BB put back that was called a cylinder interference was total bs.

There was also the blocking call on Lowry when Dragic drove to the rim and pushed him to the ground, but Lowry got called for the block instead, instead of the charge on Dragic. There were a few calls that went Toronto's way that should not have, with out of bounds plays and fouls as well. But yes, in the end, if the calls the refs are making are making a difference in whether your team wins of not, then your team has other issues.

WAR RAPS!
 
I guess you haven't been reading this thread.

Thanks for coming out

I have a feeling that our glasses will be equally half empty soon .... LOL .... I certainly agree 100% with the above.
 
Great game. Can't wait to see how well they do against Cleveland.

If they can play and keep their flow going like they did today, I can see them taking down Cleveland in 7 games. It will be a great series.
