Game 1: Brooklyn Nets 94 - Toronto Raptors 87 (Nets 1-0)

loool yea it was pierce :$
hahahahah twice no way gotta love these fans , hopefully that made Pierce feel like shit

a win for raptors would have made him feel like shit. really gotta take the next one!!

The fans have a lot of passion, enthusiasm, and love for the games. We want our teams to win. We want everyone to see how supportive we are as a fan base. Of course, I can see the negative consequences of that on both the teams. I'm sure with us being that enthusiastic, the boys felt a bit rushed. They need to be composed and hold their own.

I'm sure they can do it! I'm sure they'll embrace this much love. It's actually new territory for all of them. From being the Toronto team that was overshadowed by the Leafs, to being the center of attention - its a lot to take in all at once.

We still got this! Raps in 6!!!!!!

That and the shot clock failure. It is very nerve-racking and causes you to rush when you don't know how much time is left. Hearing it on the pa just makes you rush like crazy. It was hard on both teams but Brooklyn had the lead so the raptors rushed even more

[The Great One]

Ok, just watched all the postgame interviews. DeMar can't be serious?? his shot selection was brutal. Impossible shots to make really. The last shot that he took in the 1st qrtr was just ridiculous. Didn't even hit the rim.

i didnt even know masai ujiri, the raptor's gm said " F*ck brooklyn" I was shocked lol hahahaha he really loves his team

Can you picture RJ Buford doing that ...? Maybe Pop actually...

[Joey]

Oh ok. Bad guess. Unlike Texas, we do things in a "big" way here

We havent been to the playoffs in a looong time...(thats playoffs not the Finals like you guys do hohum).

Ya, I'd say 100+ doesn't quite to this:


...justice.

[BigCamB]

He'll need to play more than 16 minutes and take more than 4 shots for that to happen ...

And Ross wasn't even guarding DWill that much today... let alone enough to say he 'shut him down'. In my opinion anyway.

He defended him very well in the third quarter. Obviously he didn't play enough to say he shut someone down though.

Being in the building for my first playoff experience was unreal. Met Tim Leiweke before the game, took in the outdoor festivities then work my way inside where I proceeded to lose my mind. I don't know what it was like on TV but in the arena it was electric!

Also D will is a fucking bitch. The refs were garbage and we let them know it. I have no voice right now but I couldn't be more proud of the city and the team. Lets get game 2!

Can you picture RJ Buford doing that ...? Maybe Pop actually...

RJ buford no way he's too nice a person, Popovich hmmm don't know, but i actually heard him say "Bullsh*t" to a refereee making a bad call. THat was a long time ago though.

Masai ujiri is a nice person that's why i was surprised, probably the intensity of the playoffs made him say that lol.

[Uncle_Si]

Oh. I also think ppat should come in to replace Amir. And have Amir go in for JV and give him some time at the 5. Let him battle with kg a bit and save his ankles by letting ppat chase pierce around.

[BigCamB]

The crowd was epic and everything everyone hoped it would be and more. Very jealous I wasn't in it!
Interestingly it was the youngest player on the raptors who came out and thrived off the crowds energy the most. JV was full of energy and emotion in that first Q where as it seemed like some other players were nervous and tentative.

[YoungGunRaptor]

Hopefully the coaching staff make the right adjustments for game 2.

Remember how Lenny Wilkins made some pivotal adjustments in the 2001 76ers series? Hopefully DC can make some impactful adjustments as well.

[yabadabayolo]

Could Masai get fined for saying fuck Brooklyn, if so that makes it even more badass

[iblastoff]

We want to be the pacers so bad that we've actually become them now. Lack of communication - check! Poor offense - check! Chemistry seemed off? - check! turnovers galore? -check!)
