Biyombo is strong as hell

Someone a little salty lol. Toronto has some passionate fans... the city loves sports

but do they love sports when the teams are no good? especially the nba, too many fans come and go when the team goes through rough patches. pistons fans came out of the woodworks when the playoffs looked like a lock.

Raptors have already played 14 games in the post-season, Cavs can finish the ECF without reaching that mark.

The north remembers....

Cavs in 5

Jalen Rose is so mad the Heat lost 

 

[CameronCrazy06]

So the cavaliers will have not faced one good team until the finals. Good for them man.

Umm, DeRozan extended his arm and pushed Winslow. It doesn't matter if Winslow wasn't in "position", that's illegal. 

We're talking about different plays. I remember the one you're thinking of and yes, it was an offensive foul

As with most teams the hype is obviously more so there when the team is winning but I've always grown up in this city seeing that there's a lot of passionate sports fans here. The confidence has not always been high in our teams cause it's been awhile since we've had good management as well and people thinking players don't want to be here with VC leaving, Bosh leaving, etc. So many losing seasons of raptors basketball and blue jays. But people love sports in this city. The streets are loud after a series win. Shoulda seen after Texas and Toronto.

It's true though. I think majority of those fans are maple leaf fans.

Who in the east would really put up much of a challenge anyways? Don't really think heat would fare well against them, either.

kek

 

[elcheato]

Acting like the Cavs wouldn't have swept the Heat is funny
 
Also hilarious to think how many pieces on Wade-LeBron that they already completed at ESPN that they now have to scrap completely. 

 

[buzzy]

Probably as many as GSW-SAS pieces

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Nah ESPN cares about lebron way more

 

[elcheato]

They talk about Steph Curry and the Warriors more than anybody (for good reason)
 
but the ECF is on ESPN, and the WCF is not, so yes, I would imagine they had more on Lebron/Wade.
