Cooling down the heat with a little drizz(y)le: Raptors Vs Heat Thread

[Dr. Narcisse]

We played like shyt when JV left. Bu bu but Biyombo

I'm not counting on Lowry being " back". He had 1 good game out of 10.

We? You a Raptors fan?

 

[CJ]

Damn, just read the news. Did not think his injury would end up worse than Whiteside, and Whiteside will likely be back for Game 5 at max

We couldn't even enjoy a full game of JV beasting. Like the breh @Reinscarf says: Toronto sports ya'll :birdmanto:

Bismack is gonna have to get his Ibaka on. Otherwise, unleash Bebe and JT

 

[TBdaGhost]

Raptors been winning games all year (last 3 years) with JV out, or playing like doo doo. shyt when JV was hurt peoples were saying the team was better without him (not me). Once again something people that haven't watched them before the last couple games don't realize


He has been going hard in the playoffs, and I'd love to have him in there though I give him that

Man I'm surprised they announced JV to be out for the rest of the series already. It honestly didn't look that bad as he didn't land on it, and I was sure he'll be back game 4.

It's all on Biz now to step up, he's had a tough series so far. He's gotta do what he does best, be a rim protector, bang the boards, and hustle. Also have to contribute offensively especially coming off the PnR.

I hope to god we don't see Scola again in the playoffs. Casey needs to give Thompson some burn and JJ. Even Bebe is a better option than Scola. PLEASE NO MORE SCOLA.

I figured it would be bad. did you see how badly he was limping?....if it's not too bad usually you can manage to go just cause of the adrenaline. but dude was seriously hobbled in the hallway. and you knew overnight it was only gonna a stiffen up and get worse. it's crazy the turn this series has made. both starting big men go down within minutes of eachother. both teams going 7 in the first round, now being in a series with one day rest every game. it's taking a toll.

 

[Biscayne]

Sucks for JV. Looks like LeBron put a curse on both our teams....

 

[Camoflauge]

Damn tough blow for the Raptors if they got past the Heat I don't see how they wouldn't beat the Cavs... JV would've just went to work on the Cavs front court

 

[MikelArteta]

Yeah like someone mentioned Val missed like 20 games this year already and we survived.

I'd honestly start Thompson even if be only plays like 10 min

Bebe no experience in the playoffs , Thompson at least is athletic

But knowing Casey its gonna be scola

At this point, I'd prefer ANYONE over Scola. I'd start Biyombo for sure, dude looked very good out there when JV was out during the regular season. Bebe/Thompson better get some minutes

I always disagree with your opinions but you nailed it about the raptors. Even with Lowry being a human Pylon they were 1-1 with the heat and beat the pacers

Now that he seems to be in playoff mode it looked like the heat had no chance in the 4th. If your raptor predictions were based on JV not getting hurt and Lowry + Derozan being as good in the season and nothing else, they were totally logical especially giving cleveland problems.

yea we had no chance cuz everybody in the 4th played like ass except for Wade...and spo kept dragic on the bench...foh nikkas freeze up at the worse possible chance...play good on the road and play ass at home....hate

NBA will have there way and give Byombo early foul trouble and make it a backcourt game which the Heat will win.

Quote me when this happens.

Agenda already started with ESPN asking LeBron if he wanted to face Miami, really pushing it too.

Raptors probably prepping the swerve if they need him during the series.

 

[Auger]

Is he out for the 'offs? or just this series?
