the raptors have to think about breaking it up. they're not getting HCA next year with the celtics, sixers, pacers, and bucks on the rise... and if lebron makes it back to the finals he may stay with the cavs. they will be out in the first round next year.
Blow it up. Trade DeRozan and Lowry. At least that way Toronto will have an excuse next year for being owned by Lebron.
The conglomerate that owns the Raptors should just give the team to LeBron because he's the true owner of the franchise.
Oh my, Lebron providing the game winners and just putting on a show. People will whine even more about Harden winning MVP haha I feel bad for the Raptors, though we all knew at some point they needed big changes. Let’s hope Ujri takes a risk and tries to get a high profile player for Lowry or DeRozan. Casey did everything he possibly could with this team, they’re maxed out and Lebron literally owns them. I can imagine Raptors fans having crazy meltdowns and nightmares about Lebron and their stars choking.
You think they get swept? They win at least 1. Cleveland in 5 or 6 with most of the games being single digit wins. Like i said, star power wins and yeah, it's just another team who has no one to defend LeBron. Morris and a rookie Tatum can't even slow down LeBron. CJ ****ing Miles was defending him in a must win game for the Raptors. Pathetic. West has KD, Klay, Ariza/Luc/Tucker, PG13, Grant(roberson out), Butler, (kawhi out), jazz team D. The only team out East with a guy who can give LeBron trouble was Milwaukee and they got beat by a team whose average age is probably 23 lol and will be the WCF opponent. That's so pathetic. All this hype just to watch LeBron and the Cavs get destroyed in the Finals as if just getting there will keep him in Cleveland next season.
I know the Rockets are currently knee deep in the Utah series, but let's not ignore that Raptors and Philly wee bad match ups for the Rockets.
the nba finals will be the western conference finals. the rockets HAVE to beat the warriors. nobody out of the east is touching anybody who comes out of the west.
No offense to any Toronto fan here but, Toronto is the epitome of why Morey decided to go all out for a superstar instead of trying to build a team exclusively through Morey-ball.
Yeah I don't think LeBron leaving the east If the Cavs bring some good role players and construct a good roster next season I don't think he'll leave, even with good teams emerging in the east (Sixers and celtics) he single handedly owning every team in that conference
C'mom man, not cool, after all we are experienced misery as sports fans, certainly not as humiliating as them, but misery still. In addition, this is bad juju.
What a ridiculous game winner from LeBron. I don't even remember anyone making a shot like that at any point in a game before today. Just a crazy shot and you knew it was going in. He's one of the best to ever do it and I don't take for granted watching him play. Just pure greatness. I almost feel bad for Toronto fans. Year after year, they have a great regular season only to get embarrassed in the playoffs. Especially feel for Lowry, he played his heart out tonight.
