Who wins a 7 game series with both teams healthy?
We're finding out what the Raptors are capable game by game, and unless they fall off a cliff then maybe we're headed for a Blue Jay's style miracle run!
I had them a lot higher than the experts . Last year they were very competitive with a ton of injuries .
With the way the media portrays the raptors, the projections, and general disrespect, nobody expected them to be good. Barely even better than last year most people claimed. If you watched this team and understood the fact they were ravaged with injuries last year and it was extremely unjust to look at that season as a whole and determine that this team is bad and was going to continue being bad, then the expectation was that they were going to improve and win a lot more games if they can stay healthy. They are one of the youngest rosters in the league, with several glow-up candidates. Not to mention, they added an all-star talent in Brandon Ingram. RJ and SB are at the early stages of their primes. It's win now or trade these guys to winning situations. The raptors don't play with player careers like some other teams do. The offense is too diverse to not be one of the best in the league. Most teams don't have an elite defender at every single position. It leads to easy buckets for 3 other guys out on the court in most games. People talk about how the east is so weak and that it's wide open but didn't respect the raptors core enough to have higher expectations? They're learning to respect them now, that's for sure. They're a deep and very talented team, from starters to bench units.
The Raptors have not just beat the Cavs three times but three times by double digits with two of the games in Cleveland, you can blame the injuries if you want but Torontos been business like in taking care of what's in front of them.
Mobley is so overrated… Scottie locks him up AGAIN
Cavs had a G league squad out there. Let’s take it easy
It just tells you that raptors much deeper team!
I’m a nets fan too my brother 😢, but BI3 my favorite player 👌🏿 4:12
I can't help but keep thinking how great Lamelo Ball would be on this team. Dejounte Murray could do some damage 2. Two pickups they should have in mind
No one saw this coming because no one pays attention to the raptors.
This will go down as one of the quickest rebuilds in a long time. As a life long Raptors fan, it's not surprising. They had a dynasty(potentially a 3 peat had Kahwi stayed). They had to play out the Siakam era and after two tough years post that, are 2nd in East
Raptors fans expected to be in the playoffs.. anything more than that is free money babyy
Raptors finishing 2. TO detroit this year.
I put bets on raps before season started. To beat 36.5, 37.5 and 40 wins plus Darko winning Coach of the Year. Odds on Raps always skewed by the Americans. Loving it
I did
I had you guys down for a Knicks – Nets reaction video tonight. But this was good stuff. The Raptors remind me of the Trailblazers of the East. Both teams are athletic and play sound, hardnosed defense.
Good pod! Just found you as a Raps fan. Subbed
