Game #12: Toronto Raptors 94 - Boston Celtics 95

[Maury]

It is to me but it won’t be considered so.

I really wanted him to play. Now if we win it’s not a real win.

There were only two things certain in the last 2 years..: Fake news and Fake Raptors Wins.

[Hotshot]

Yeah well if the John Wall experience taught us, missing their best player does not guarantee a win if they come out flat and don't play defence.

[Hotshot]

OG's interviews are the best! I feel like he just want to say "well duh" for obvious reasons.

Hopefully we make it to the #fakefinals and eventually get a #fakeship

I'm petrified we lose this game without kyrie, and end up 4 games back of them before mid November. Please win boys

I like this twisted logic. Can we claim our losses are fake too when one of our main players is out? Last year was probably ECF again then, Lowry was injured, ergo CLE wins = fake

jk..I want them full strength too...Truth is if we maintain focus & discipline on D, we can take them either way.

As the great Aristotle wrote in the Nicomachean Ethics:

Happiness, therefore, is the best, noblest, and most pleasant thing, and the greatest happiness is derived when the Celtics lose.

But Thomas Aquinas put it more simply in his Summa Theologica:

Fuck the Celtics.

Trying to improve my win streak to 3. Power of positivity from tipoff till the final buzzer sounds. Let's fucking go! Down with Boston, down I say!

Is that...really... you...? I thought I was the one concussed when I saw this, but if no one hijacked your account and you really wrote this...

Idk why that's surprising.

I don't like Boston, but I acknowledge that they're a good team.

I'm pessimistic about some things in and around the Raptors, but I still cheer for them to win every game...

Only playoffs matter. This game shows the Celtics how the Raptors matchup but without Irving and Horford, Raptors have one less game to scout the Celtics.

[Demographic Shift]

Don’t care who is hurt..who is coaching....
Looking forward to the Raps going into the TD Garden and walking out with a win over the Chowders.
Preferably by 20 or more. Hopefully they make Tommy H. go into full oratorical flight.

Thomas Aquinas, Kant, Socrates, Rousseau are unanimous in their teachings.....Fuck Boston.

This feels like such a big trap.... Early road game on a Sunday afternoon against a rival team without two potentially three of their best players while having 2 days of rest compared to 1.

Boston can't score.. but they sure can defend and make your life hard. They are tenacious and don't quit and seem to fight for every loose ball. If we can match their energy then this should be an easy win. If we come in thinking it will be easy we're screwed.
