2001 Semifinals Toronto vs Philadelphia was an epic 7 game series. VC vs AI. Iverson dropping 54 points one game then Carter putting up 50 the next game. Game 7 was one of the most nail biting games in NBA history. Carter, Antonio Davis, Charles Oaklee, Dale Curry on Toronto vs AI and Mutumbo. Carter with the last second miss ended up losing by 1 point is probably the toughest loss in Raptor history, up to now. That Toronto team had a bright future back then.

nba is so boring. same teams every FUKKKKKKING YEAR. like come on man

[lonegambler23]

now raptor nation time to dump derozan and lowry and restart fresh so sick of them. will never win anything

[Regul8er]

Theyll dump one of the two....and for sure fire Casey. But a total rebuild wont happen....enough talent to win now, hopefully they can land a top tier free agent who has some heart.

DeRozan couldn't have been more of a useless tit,what happened to that offensive stud from the regular season.

Cleveland's defense has worn him down. They're doubling him when he enters the post. Love is bumping bodies with him on offense and defense. The Cav's are contesting his shot and making it very difficult for him. Now, Casey benched him which was pretty stupid. You can't win without Derozan, so you have to go with the horse that brought you.

I don't blame Casey for doing that to be honest,it just wasn't working out with DeRozan,like you said the Cavs were able to control him.

They managed to chip away at that huge deficit with the second unit,the way DeRozan was playing could they have pulled that off,I don't see it.

Sure, they chipped away at the lead but in the long run, they didn't have the horses to close out that game. Then you put doubt into your star player that you MUST have in order to win this series and you basically conceded defeat. Derozan gets a flagrant 2 and is gone tonight.

Oh well, Toronto just does not match up well with Cleveland. It's very apparent, which is why I created this thread. The 1 team Toronto did not want to play was this Cav team. This is about to be 10 straight wins Cleveland has had over Toronto.

As a long time Cleveland fan, the Cavs lost 9 straight over Jordan's Bulls. Cav's fans know exactly how it feels.

[packerd_00]

I'd be pretty ashamed if I was a Raptor fan,elimination game and they come out with this half assed effort.

DeRozan hasn't shown up bottom line,that benching didn't seem to do much sadly.

[Mac4Lyfe]

If you can't tell that the Cav's ramped up their defense in this series, I don't know what to tell you. Raptors had their lowest score in the playoffs tonight. Yes, Cav's play defense.

Truly sad isn't it?

Not a true sport. How come star players can't dominate in NHL like that every year? Because it's a team sport.

NBA really is the same shit forever. A few players control the league

Hockey normally has several lines, where guys take breaks and it's 6 players on the ice but the goalie can equalize the game. Soccer has 11 guys but stars can kinda dominate the game in spurts as well. Football can be dominated at the QB position but very difficult at other positions. Basketball can have 1 or 2 players play the entire game, which means they can impact the game for longer periods and there's less players on the court. It doesn't make it not a true sport. Tennis and Golf are true sports, even though it's an individual game.

You can't win in football unless you have a great team. Qb or not

Baseball same

Hockey obviously.

Basketball only big sport where supposed teams win in the playoffs with no talent besides 1/2 great players.

GSW is a super team with quality players at all 5 positions, 2 deep. Cav's have solid players despite what the media tries to feed you. Kyrie, Love and Lebron was the big 3. 3 All Stars that won a ring for the city. Guys like JR, TT, Delly, Frye, Jefferson, Shump were good roll players. Basketball is a great team sport. You have to have the superstars but you also have to have guys that can do the dirty work, which you are overlooking.

[lakerboy]

Basketball has no parity. It's by design. It's there model. They don't want different teams winning every year.
