Nice Avatar. Love it.

You from Alberta? Im a Calgary boy myself, though live in TO now.

Purtle Turtle was the game changer today.

For real! JV wasn't a good matchup in this game.

Yessir

[GOLDBLUM]

did we just clinch the 3rd seed

Yup!!

Now it'll be interesting to see whether a W or L vs us in the last game determines 1st or 2nd for CLE

[Demographic Shift]

To his credit.... Patrick Patterson ended up having a great game.

15 points 6/9 fg 3/6 from 3s

Jacks right...If Ppat and Tucker and carroll can muster 6 or 7 or more threes between them we will most likely win..
If they are cold the Raps are up against it...

[The Great One]

For real! JV wasn't a good matchup in this game.

Hernangomez is not a good matchup for him? hmm..

[tonious35]

Melo to the raptors confirmed

his shit defense will not be vilified in Toronto because he can't guard any worse than Carroll

[Ebonhawke]

Cavs have waived DeAndre Liggins in the hope of adding another ring-chasing guard for the post season.

[GLF]

Hernangomez is not a good matchup for him? hmm..

Yea because Hernangomez is a little too agile for him and he can shoot the ball. Maybe I'm wrong but JV struggled mightily against him so I don't know what else to chalk it up to

[The Great One]

Clyde Frazier is my hero though. Dude is styling and profiling, winning and grinning

a lot of players are not a good matchup for JV lol. JV is like situational player

[slaw]

Felt a lot like the Bulls/Nets game yesterday except the Raps closed it out with authority while the Bulls pissed it away late. Difference between a third seed and a team fighting to stay in the playoffs I guess.... both teams will have a tough time getting up for certain games but the better teams will find a way to get wins.

Game #82 Raptors VS Cavaliers @ Quicken Loans Arena, Wednesday April 12, 2017, 8 PM EST



Alright guys, this is the big one. We either close out the season on a hot streak, or we end up losing a game to a heated rival in the Cavs. This one is for pride, justice & proof we can hang with the elite team in the league!


Projected Starters

At Point Guard for the Raptors, he's the tough 6 foot bulldog, the 31 year old from Philly whose come back from injury & has shown he's ready for these playoffs..... #7, KYLE LOWRY!



At Shooting Guard, the man who has been the backbone of this squad, the man who idolized Kobe so much his style of play is freakishly similar, the man from Cali who never quits....... #10, DEMAR DEROZAN!



At Small Forward, the guy who takes a lot of bullcrap for his contract & his injuries, the guy who stole a nickname from a beloved Raptor before him, the man who hopes to prove he can be a catalyst these playoffs... #5, DEMARRE CARROLL!



At Power Forward, the guy who was disgruntled in Orlando, tossed away like a used tissue in OKC, the man who been to the NBA Finals & hopes to be a key piece in leading his newfound team there.... #9, SERGE IBAKA!



At Center, the man from Lithuania, The ittybittyballers.ca pusher, the guy who either plays with his heart on his sleeve or looks drunk out there, #17, JONAS VALANCIUNAS!




And our opponents, the Cleveland Cavaliers Starting Group:

PG- Kyrie Ivring
SG- JR Smith
SF- Lebron James
PF- Kevin Love
C- Tristan Thompson


LET'S GO GET 51 WINS BABY!

If it secures Cleveland first place then I'd trot out Bruno, Siakam and FVV for 40 min each.
