Game #53: Brooklyn Nets 118 - Toronto Raptors 119

[Jclaw]

Terence Davis
Your Star has risen
(also, fun fact...there's only one "R" in Terence Davis)

Another fun win last night, whiplash aside.
Plenty of good performances as we continue to wander into uncharted territory.
Now I remember reading a book once about people wandering into the heart of the jungle.
It reminded me of this post from yesterday's thread

JClaw snapped

So did you mean..

Or more like....








In either case, happy to be part of this historic run.
So what comes next?
***checks Alex Wong's Twitter feed***

One day at a time

Which brings us to the chance to extend this streak to 14.
Now, 13 was a number that lent itself to several memes.
14?
Not so much
Had some trouble with this one.
Going for win number 14..the game is in February...14....February....February 14th....





How could you not love this team?

Remember this?



Sure we were heartbroken when Kawhi and Danny left
The Raps could have slumped into the couch with a tub of Ben & Jerry's and called it a season.
But no.
Currently tied for the second most wins...in the entire league.
Second best defense in the league
Just broke the franchise record for a win streak
On pace for the most wins in Raptors history
Soldiering on through various injuries
Get to see lineups made entirely of undrafted players actually outdo other teams.
All with the most lovable mix of players.

Lap year? No. This season is a leap year! (February humour)

So let's keep the LoveTrain going.

Sure it's back to back against a rested team.
Sure our fearless leader has joined our all star injured list
Sure the Nets have the "Kyrie's not playing" boost.
No match for the Power of Love.

As always, even if I've used it before, and even more so with all the headaches the Knicks "insiders" game us this week..

Go Raps

[JawsGT]

Lets go get this. I have a bit of an odd feeling about this one, i think we'll need an efficient night from both pascal and freddy to get it but we are at home and the Nets suck so maybe not.

[007]

Just need to make it to all-star break without any more big injuries. Lowry is listed as questionable, which seems odd, but I guess that means he won’t be out for super long

[Jclaw]

yeah....and glad to see Pascal and his wonky eye aren't on the injured list at all (probable or otherwise)

Game Day!

This pic can never be posted often enough. Buddy had Bulls, Nets and Pistons in the post season, yet Raps fallen off the board smh.
And Sam the Traitor Mitchell could have at least given us a courtesy bump above the bloody hawks lol

[Jclaw]

How have I not seen this yet?

Watch out for the trap game - if there's ever one to exhale is this one. They should get it though

Feel normal yes it would be a trap game but with no Lowry think they come out gangbuster. One worry is Serge he played 40 mins last night. Going to need some good minutes from boucher, maybe even some RHJ at the 5 for a few minutes.

[bertarapsfan]

My guess is McCaw starts just so T.D can be a scoring punch when the starters come out. T.D going to play heavy mins tho.

Lets play guess T.D statline.
Ill go 24 pts, 6 rebs, 4 ast, 2 steals and a dunk on Kurucs

[Jclaw]

you guess wrong!

[bertarapsfan]

Davis Starting! He offically surpassed McCaw! Hallelujah.
Upping my stat line prediction
27 pts 8 rebs 5 ast 2 steals. and 2 dunks on Kurucs

I look at this game more as a scheduled loss.Half your starters hurt, back to back playing a team waiting for you. That said
F Brooklyn.
