Raptors Republic Android & iOS App

Hey guys and gals,

We're running a, how should I say, pilot or beta version of our new Raptors Republic app. We haven't made it official as we're still trying to work out some bugs while improving the user interface. So, its not the final version so expect to see more changes over the next while.

Anyhow, please feel free to download. Available on both Android & iPhone. It's absolutely free.

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...rsrepublic.app

iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-...6946?ls=1&mt=8

If we could ask a favour though. We're welcoming feedback and suggestions on perhaps things you'd like to see. At the end of the day we're doing this for you guys by making everything here easier available for you the user. Please send your feedback (Regardless if its positive or negative) to raptorsrepublic@gmail.com.

Thanks in advance and we hope you guys enjoy the application.

    SF - Kawhi Leonard F - Giannis Anteto..yada yada yada
    PF - Pascal Siakam F - Nikola Mirotic
    C - Marc Gasol C - Brook Lopez

    Last Meeting
    We Lost. It doesn't matter. I don't wanna talk about it.


    Notes
    • The Raptors are 8-9 (.471) overall during the second game of a playoff series and have split the first two games of a series seven times.

    • Toronto became the first team since the 2004 Detroit Pistons to start three consecutive playoff series by limiting opponents to a .400 or lower field goal shooting percentage.

    • Toronto is the seventh team since 2000-01 to hold opponents at or below .411 (441-1072) field goal shooting (min. 1000 FGA) in the playoffs.

    • Kyle Lowry made a playoff career-high seven three-pointers May 15 in Game 1 vs. Milwaukee.

    • Toronto’s 15 three-pointers in May 15 in Game 1 at Milwaukee was a franchise playoff record for three-pointers made on the road.

    • All five Toronto starters contributed a three-pointer for the third time in the playoffs – Kyle Lowry (7), Pascal Siakam (2), Marc Gasol and Danny Green.

    • Kawhi Leonard leads all players in the 2019 NBA playoffs with 413 total points scored through 13 games.

    • Kawhi Leonard has scored 30 or more points eight times in the playoffs this season. He needs one more 30-point game to become the eighth player since 2000-01 to record at least nine 30-point games - Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Amar'e Stoudemire, Dwyane Wade, Stephen Curry.

    • Kawhi is the fourth player since 2000-01 to record 400+ points on 280 or few field goal attempts, joining Kevin Durant, Dwight Howard, Pau Gasol.

    • Kawhi Leonard's 243 points in the Conference Semifinals was the third most in a playoff series since 1977: 260, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; 246, Michael Jordan; 243, Kawhi Leonard.


    We got em right where we want em. Raps in 6!

    Dear Republic

    I too am disappointed. I too feel like we let one slip away. I too feel this one hurt more than the others.

    BUT upon inflection, this one did not hurt more than the others. Each loss hurt. Game 1 vs Orlando pissed me off, same as Game 2 and 3 and 6 vs Philly. The only cures for those feelings? Winning again.

    That brings us to today. A new day. And on this new day, I remind you of this: 5 teams THIS YEAR ALONE have lost game 1 and won the series. Toronto. Philly. Denver. Milwaukee. Portland. Yes, 5 of the first 12 series had the losing team win game 1. Nearly half. The Raptors themselves have been down in both of their first 2 series, and answered the bell.

    I've heard detractors say today we wasted the Kyle Lowry game. I say to those detractors, nay, we have not wasted the Kyle Lowry game. We have just seen the beginning of the Kyle Lowry games. Lowry is notoriously streaky as we know. And it appears he has found his shot.

    To the detractors, I say, we had 7 players out of 8 play subpar. We had no scorers other than KL2 and Pascal in the 2H, and no scorers other than Kyle in the 4th q. Yes, that means Kawhi, Pascal, Marc, Danny, Serge, Fred, and Norm ALL played worse than they are capable of playing. In most cases much worse. To me, THAT is the anomaly, much more than the Kyle Lowry game.

    On this day, Raptor fans of the Republic, we tuck in our shaky upper lip, we march forward into tomorrow, and beat this beatable Bucks team. Or our boys do. Whatever. We got the best player in the series, we got the vets, and we got Canada. They got a greek guy and some kids who've never been this far.

    Sincerely

    A guy who spends too much time on the boards, sitting on the fence.

    Just win baby. That's the stance I'm taking.
