TORONTO RAPTORS VS LOS ANGELES LAKERS REACTION…WERE RAPTORS ROBBED, DARKO PISSED RIGHTFULLY!
All right guys what’s going on welcome back to Top Line it’s your boy Chris and uh well well well ladies and gentlemen hope everybody’s having a great great great great great great great what the Wednesday Wednesday hump day man hope everybody’s having a great great great
Great great hump day um you turn that down me um man so first of all if y’all joined the live stream last night thank you man um you know it it’s always fun when the Raptors and the play it’s always fun when the Lakers and the Raptors play cuz it’s a divided
Household um if you didn’t watch the live you miss my wife being on live for the first time um she always in the background talking but she jumped in um we get it popping tonight she may jump in but she got a lot of stuff to do so I
Don’t want to say but it was cool having on the podcast man uh I’m going try to line something up when we do a show uh um like something once a week not saying that’s going to happen I’m going try to talk into it uh cuz I love her her her
She got such an innocent take on basketball it’s not analytic it’s pure what I see what I what I know and it is it’s not deep thought it’s real like just real pass so but anyway so let’s talk about it man um many people say uh
Chris come on now keep it real keep it real with the reals now um Blas blah and and this the thing man I’m I’m I’m just going to be honest um first of all Darko after the game was pissed all right and let me tell you something that coach right
There just got every play in I locker room in a different mindset right because a lot of people a lot of coaches want to play a politically correct and when you got a coach that’s willn’t to go out down the line for you like that and and many
People are boiling down to this game yeah that was a big free free throw discrepancy um I watched Stephen A talk about it he said well you got this remember some of those would take files later in the game um and all this right but to
Me the fact of the matter was Darko said this is not just this game this has been happening I’ve came on this on his very channel right here and yelled about it the the the rap just seen to get a now I understand it I’ve seen the Lakers get
Bad car we all seen Jason Tatum going take LeBron arm off and they don’t call it but to me it just seems as though when it comes to the RS it just seems to be a little bit more frequent I’m going be honest with you um you heard you heard Nick nurse
Talk about it a little bit he was more on the court going at the refs where Darko let it know immed now the NBA going to find him they going to hit him with a big with they going to get some bread from him fine whatever robs don’t care um but what I
Think what I think this C to happen is now you will get these players with this villain not even villains just like you know what I’m saying it’s like okay y’all going to screw us over anyway whatever like I think it it Force the the team as a as a
Unit to come together even closer and be like okay okay we see what y’all got our coach got our back and we ain’t going to let him down cuz he ride with us and we going to ride for him type of thing um again the the the one call the one call the
One that I really paid attention to um was the the screen was scottty Barn knocked down to three it was one of those plays where it’s like to me okay I put it like this it’s like holding in in football you can call it every player if you want to you
Can call a moving screen every player if you want to but why you choose to call it them at that critical Junction in the game to me personally it wasn’t it was a it it was the guy moving a little but tell me which one which ones are not
Moving you know what I’m saying that’s one I think should have roll I just me talking I’m being honest hey me Chris Laker fan I’m just being honest they should let that roll um and then on the flip side you you look at um yeah they had no they had no yaka
Purle in this game which I think open the door for Anthony Davis a little bit more um Anthony Davis you know choosing to be and by no way by no no stroke of imagination am I taking anything away from what the Lakers done Lakers the Lakers won all right the Lakers won you
Know but I will say man that there was a lot of questionable calls in that game as but this ain’t this has been going on for for with officiating period like they got to fix this man they got to fix this and and man I could be watching
Just random it could be Orlando versus the Grizzlies and you just see horrible calls it’s like bro y’all got one job get the game right I think they got to get to a point where they got they got to implement like a who who did it I think the
Um I think the NFL or col someone where even if the ref don’t see it or the ref make a call you got someone overseeing that can buzz in like stop stop stop that might have been a bad call go look at that play regardless of what the play is
Because uh uh uh a a call like the one where got to hit the three and they called the um the moving screen on RJ Barrett that’s a call that changeed the outcome of a game those call has to be right when a call can change the outcome
Of a game that call has to be right now I’m looking I’m looking at this game and I’m saying first of all I don’t know what was up I don’t know when um D’Angelo D’Angelo Russell became a tough guy like me I don’t I don’t Vibe with him I’m sorry Laker
Whatever don’t Vibe I don’t know when he became a tough guy he want to get all up in RJ Barrett face I was looking like though he don’t he really RJ don’t look like the guy face you want to get up in you know what I’m saying like let that
One ride bro like um but it was a physical game first of all no one I don’t think no one talks about this but me but there’s a little dynamic between these two teams right like like they’ve I’ve I’ve heard many times even before dark uh dark Darko um I’ve heard
Lakers you know coaches and stuff like that just speak highly of the Raptor organization and Nick and Nick nurse and I’ve heard Lakers broadcast talk so it’s always been like this little un no one talks about it but me I just watch both team so I hear about it but it’s always
Been like this little not even competition but admiration for um for each other but when it comes to this game um you know you you going to have your your conspiracy theories out there to say oh they just want the leg to win go they like the leg
Um me personally I I can’t say nothing I can’t say that’s not true me personally I just never look at the game like that because if I start to look at the game like that then I can’t I can’t enjoy the games if I if I watch every basketball
Game knowing oh this game rig this game rig then what I’m watching game for dog so sometime I I choose to be naive on certain things just because I want to enjoy a game I want to believe that each team got an equal chance to win a game
But was that horrible calls in that game yeah man yeah there was some bad CS in that game there was some bad calls it it just and and it’s not fair and the NBA got to do something um but to me the biggest thing I I take away from it man if you
Wasn’t a Darko fan before that moment you’re a Darko fan though because you you still and this a regular season this not even at the allstar break if this was in the playoffs You’ be like yeah I get it do he got this much passion and
We ain’t even in the All-Star break yet that that says how much these games mean to him how much his players mean to him and how much of a um player coach he is you always heard that he’s a player coach but now you see it and for him I
Mean he he it seemed like he he he held back it felt like he wanted to go it felt like people were like you know he oh he going in I don’t think he really went in the way he wanted to I think he held back so the slaping with a little
Fine he’ll make a frisbee out of it um but I’m interest to see how to WP this bounce back tonight I don’t expect to be a lot of laughing and gigging I expect them to be locked in I expect them to Echo their coach I expect to be high
Intensity they’re going against the Clippers you know we’ll see how how that pans out but you know um I’m I’m this is this has just been one of the ones man um if I’m be honest I’m more I’m more um I’m more I’m I’m I’m more just just
Mesmerized um with the whole game um you I mean you got to give it to Anthony David Anthony David did give you 37 he did get you a double double um LeBron James did play well in Spurs I think that’s what you gonna get from LeBron at
This point a re gave you 11 um not sure you know he he’s feel like he’s in some little slump right now um the Lakers as a whole man they’ve been on they’ve been on a down on a downward turn um so they’re trying to they they put two
Together in a row but they’re trying to fix they’re trying to fix things out they’re trying to figure it out um so it’s it’s that time of the Season where teams that are not where they want to be going to be a little bit more intense they’re going to be a little they’re
Going to be a little bit more fervent what they got to say or or what they or what they doing on the court so you have to expect that it was an intense game and I can’t wait till I think April the 2nd the next time they play um and I’m
Going be locked in man so um look like we headed for another live stream tonight with the rap versus the the Raptors versus I said raapers the Raptors versus the Clippers um late late live stream we can get it done we’ll get it done hopefully get everything done um
But y’all know your boy been there locked in trying to have some fun man and hope hopefully we don’t let’s not talk about the Reps tonight please let’s hope let’s hope we don’t have to cuz if they mess up we will but let’s hope we
Don’t have to bring the r up again with that being said guys please like com subscribe to the channel till next time you got to be great man

Didn’t realize the Raps were playing at “LA FIXNESS “
It’s not the 22 fouls that’s the issue it’s the inconsistency and discrepancy on the calls. Players adjust their play on how the fouls are being called. So if it was called on one side of the court it should be called on the other side. If you want o give lakers 60-70% of the calls ok but not 90%. C’mon man.
I was watching your face on this calls last night and you knew it was BS but it was your Lakers so you were ok with it.
With the amount of money sports betting takes in, refs could easily shape scoring. I hope the NBA keeps a better eye on the refs.
It's crazy because in the raptors vs Sacramento kings game that was recently played, when quickly attempted the 2nd last 3 of the game , he was expecting the call but the refs did not give it to him and then we find out before the raptors vs warriors game that it was a 3 point foul and the refs are sorry not that it helps at all now since the game was over smh 👀
AD flopped
We're trying to have a "great great" but some of us did not zzzzzz last night all the garbage we watched during the 4thQ……sorry
At first I wasn’t that upset but going back and looking the calls I hated was Max Christie, Austin Reaves, and I get that was an offensive foul by RJ but if you flop like that I just don’t think it needs to be called. On the other end Thaddeus young got the same shove AD had no call, Scottie had an and one dunking on Christie. What I also understand but hated was Pascal gets undercut in the first half and imo getting undercut is as dangerous if not more than Quickley’s rip through either call them both a Flagrent or call both foul as was, IQ was an offensive foul imo not flagrant but whistles gotta be both ways. Scottie also got as much contact as AD gets on AD before he got rejected in the last minute would have been called vs Raptors like it was last 4 mins. AD made all his free throws kudos but they needed them all. 4th Q was also 40 minutes long which is a disgrace. It’s not just the Raptors tho the Lakers have such a huge discrepancy between opposition free throws and I don’t believe for a second they are better at not fouling than Jesus himself.
Raptors keep getting Ws. We so lucky we got a coach like Darko man. Front office like Masai and Bobby. What a culture we got. Letsgetitttt
Blatant Chris, blatant 5 vs 8 gms
If Raps look at a Laker, its a foul.
Don’t take points from Steven A
Like I said before, I keep track of refs every gm and I know how its gonna go. Always in 4th qrt 3 mins left.
Dlo/Wood lost their minds last night.
Boycott nba
What about the goal tend that they decided to call it a technical.. so he shoots 3. Should have been a countrd bucket and one shot
Time to hold refs accountable. They need to sit in front of the media and explain themselves, just like everyone else in the game. Coaches, Players, and Refs! That way maybe they would stop doing the shady sh!t. Appreciate you.
I Even Said The Refs We’re
Gonna Rig This Game
You wrong Chris, the Raptors made some fouls but so did LA…..Raptors got called for fouls but LA didn't, that is the point……
In long term the refs are destroying the games in sense that the physicality, you can't defend properly because you avoiding to give free throws, the flopping has become ridiculous.
Darko has become a meme on social media this men gor famous over night viarl 🤣
I was okay with either team winning but that was rough. Even Chris as a Lakers fan thought it was a little too much.
It escalated to blatant robbery as the 4th quarter wound down. How is it possible for all the calls and non calls to benefit one side in such a close game? Rigged.
AWWWWWWWW!!!! I missed your wonderful wife!
This is why we ride with you Chris.
Theyre making sports betting tougher then ever before
Phill handy talked about the officiating when he was assistant with the Raptors on danny green's podcast once he became a lakers assistant coach.
NBA is the new WWE! Fake as F
I didn't think she would let you live after that ref job 😂
I agree with you that A.D is a talented player and no Poeltl definitely opened up some space, but bottom line here is that A.D. had more free throws than the entire Raptor Team. Reaves had more free throws than any individual Raptor the whole game. OK the Raptors had more field goals, more 3's, and more points in the paint and yet they only got a fraction of the fouls called for them the whole game while being the more aggressive team. And as for that flagrant , that was B.S. you mean to tell me the RJ Barrett can hit A.D. so hard as to make him fly thru the air and hit the deck. A.D. should get an Oscar for that one, and had he been called for flopping and we made 2 free throws , the Raptor's win, that's how close it was.
The reason Refs can get away with bad or no calls is because there is no accountability. There are no consequences for consistently bad officiating. Why not have some sort of overview of Refs and when it's shown that they are consistently bad , then demote them to the G league and promote other Refs who have aspirations of becoming an NBA Ref.
Good video , first time watching. I can see your honesty and not bias towards any one team. I am a Raptor fan, but at the same time a Basketball Fan. Was an avid Baseball fan for years and became a Basketball fan around 2016 and have been loving and learning the way this game unfolds from game to game and year to year. I've always understood the game but am learning the rules more and more and there are no shortage of them to understand. Fouls have to be the hardest, even when you see the plays in slow motion, still hard to see all the stuff going on. Anyway Basketball is my new favorite sport but disappointed with the way the refs are controlling this game like no other sport.
I been telling you NBA is rigged especially against the raptors nba will fined coach and come out and apologize for refs mistakes
The key is, has the NBA ever found shady refs… yes so can it happen again… yes Now other than that, you sounding real nervous like ya don't want to call a spade a spade!!! 😂😅😂
Bro honestly what are you ? A laker fan or a raptor fan? Your channel is confusing.
I'm on your side I don't think your wife's going to let you sleep on the couch you should have been in your bed
Labron couldn't even speak…" They fouled, and we didn't" 😂😂 crap.
I don't think raptors will play Lakers' team well, not show up
Stephen A Smith is not a serious analyst. His bullshit rants are always against Toronto. He makes a serious face. That's about it.
