I read a great article likening this years raptors to the 11 mavs. if you recall dirk and the mavs were perennial “playoff chokers” despite being regular season juggernauts

Raptors arent perennial playoff chokers,thats why it aint the same..this team was in the ECF and 2 wins away from the finals 2 years ago.Last 2 years they lost to better CLE team as the lower seed,how is that choking ? In 2014 they lost in 7 games on the last play of the game as the 3rd seed,first time DeRozan and Lowry had been to the playoffs,was that choking ? IM here to squash all the BS narratives....

This is a great team in 2018 and deserves all praises due...

Nobody picked this team to win 60 and lead the East,this team is the hands down the best story of the NBA season and its not even close...Whatever i say about Casey i cant deny he should be the unanimous COY and its shouldnt be close,him winning COY should be more of a lock than Harden winning MVP...

This staff and organization deserves huge praise for developing this bench...and it barely gets talked about.


Mavs lost in 2007 as 1st seed to the 8th seed Warriors coming off a 60 win season...Raps have never done that and yet get dragged like were perennial 1st seed chokers and were in the same class as the Wizards....its disgusting.

Look at how the ESPN panel try to shape our win against the Rockets before it even happened,trying to tell everyone it was a scheduling loss cuz the Rockets were playing 3 in 4 nights OF COURSE failing to mention it was also 3 in 4 nights for us...

NBA analysis is disgraceful and the worst of the major sports.

:francis: the whole point is that it’s useless to compare this year’s squad to those of past years

theres no team in the east i see beating the raptors in 7

the raps bench is to good, the way they play defense is ridic, poeltl and siakam can guard the perimeter and give up nothing inside

CJ miles is the only semi weak defensively but he makes up for i on the offensiveside

and this bullshyt about us being regular season juggernauts is more lying from the ESPNs and TNTs.

Raptors last 4 season regular season win totals :

2013-14 48 wins 3rd seed
2014-15 49 wins 4th seed
2015-16 56 wins 2nd seed
2016-17 51 wins 3rd seed

TWO 3rd place finishes and ONE 4th place finish isnt no fuggin regular season juggernaut...TWICE we won 50 games and lost to Bron...

This year is the first time were an actual juggernaut,best team with the depth we have....

Shaquille and Paul Pierce are the argument for ex players not being good studio analysts cuz they dont know shyt or watch shyt and use there personal bias to create false narratives...

Never felt sympathy for 'zino crew shanking that fakkit...
