Congrats to the Raptors. I bet on Warriors in 6 but once that was no longer possible I was a Toronto fan. Toronto is a great city and Canada is a great country and a great neighbor. Well deserved. Nav Bhatia deserves a free year of season tickets.
The Raptors are an entertaining, fun team to watch. They all play hard. They all defend well and hard. They are all selfish. They all seem to have extraordinarily high bball IQ - except I don't know what happened to Danny Green. Of course, they also have talent. I don't know if they would have won if Klay didn't get hurt, if KD wasn't hurt, etc. I don't think it matters. They did win... it's in the books and counts.
One smart guy once said : You never underestimate the heart of a Campion! So after that , all If don't mean anything, what is done is done they are legit 2019 Champions. We are next .....
Raptors did do it right. Congrats to them. Tillman are you watching? Gotta hand it to Golden State too. Steve Kerr is not saying stupid things like unacceptable and blah blah blah. They had the balls to fire the head coach and allow nurse to give a go at it. Traded Vajanus for Gasol who may not be as young but still contributed. They allowed Kawhi to rest so he would be fresh for the playoff run. The Raptors team Earned a championship like we did in the 90's. Can't be afraid to pull the trigger. As beloved as Derozan was in Toronto, I bet the city of Toronto and whole country of Canada is not upset over the trade... Everyone on the Rockets should be expendable, even James Harden for the right price.
Small request. Could someone provide a still shot of the look on Kerr, Draymond, and Curry's face while they stood in a circle realizing that they had no more timeouts and that they had pretty much lost the championship. It would definitely provide a great profile picture for somebody.
Although the Raptors have a solid squad all around no team wins a ring without some luck so it worked out in their favor I just wish the rockets could've taken advantage of the KD injury....meanwhile we are interested in Pat Bev (sigh)
Gotta be good and lucky to win championships and they were both. Glad they won it because I'm sick of the worriers.
