Kyle Lowry doesn't listen to just anyone, but he listens to Fred VanVleet.

That Zach Lowe article is great. Really shows how low-key confident and motivated the raptors are. Also shows how self aware they are, the label as "playoff chokers" especially Lowry, he hears it. They know this postseason will either change that identity or possibly leave it ingrained forever.
Earlier this season I kind of thought of the raps just playing with house money. All the pressure was on Cleveland or boston and we were expected to lose anyways. Not anymore. This is our time, this is it. The basketball world knows it and the pressure is once again enormous. This is compelling stuff.

The Eastern Conference leaders are No. 1 in the latest NBA.com power rankings and one prominent site gives them a 60-per-cent shot at making the NBA final. They still have to do it, but they sure look ready for prime time, Bruce Arthur writes. How ’bout it, ESPN?

Nice idea for a thread.. feels like the same type of message is being passed around by most basketball writers/commentators and that is the Raptors need to prove it in the playoffs.
Winning game 1 should be a goal obviously but other than that.. really the only thing we need to prove is if we can get by Lebron, and we may not even get that opportunity.
Raptors just need to play their game and trust that it will work. As a fan I have faith in them. Pretty great defensive team too.. so if the ball for some reason stops going in, we can at least shut down the other team from scoring too.
Feels like we might have a tough road to the finals. And it wouldn't be the most Raptor thing to do if it was a tough road. Sensing something like Bucks round 1, Cavs/Wiz round 2, Celts/76ers round 3, Houston/GSW round 4.

Unsure if this article by Paul Headley was posted or not, found this via Reddit (which I've been semi-active on as of late as I've wanted to talk about other teams, not just the Raptors):

Alright, merged up the two main ones I could find. Will give another look, but I'm fine with going from here.

By Request, and really, a comprehensive thread like this for just posting and discussing articles on the Raps is a long time coming ... I thought we actually had one, but will Sticky this one and go look for any others that may have been created in the past.Last edited by Joey; Tue Mar 13, 2018, 01:52 PM.
