Series Thread: 2nd Round: Toronto Raptors vs Philadelphia Sixers

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

We're talking about this year right now. Yes the Raptors as a team choked last year and got beat. We're talking about now they're going to Game 7 in the second round against a very good team. You're trying to tell me if this is Lowrysfault that they lost the game when he shot 45% from the field and 43% from three-point land played Stellar defense all well leading the NBA in plus-minus this playoffs and in charges. At age 33 under sized. But again Let's ignore the facts you want to mouth off with your sound bites like you know it all but you don't

I'm imagining you weeping in front of your webcam right now...lol

Why does my opinion bother you so much?

I'm allowed to not like him for any reason I see fit.

He's not looking washed like CP3.

But, he's over paid and underwhelming.

Hard facts.

Because your opinion means nothing and it's not true. You come out here only when they lose blasting Lowry. They did not lose tonight because of him. You keep saying that he's choking yet there in Game 7 in round 2 against a very good team.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Sure you can talk about whatever you want but you're in a thread that's talking about this playoff series.

Yeah....and I'm talking about basketball.

What is your point?

You quoted my post saying I'm taking the 6ers because of playoff Lowry.

Not sure how that isn't relevant.

Then why are you quoting me?

Obviously it's important in your world.

I blast Lowry year around for basketball reasons.

You act like I'm talking about his mama.

Get out of your feelings.

It's not true, huh?


Just gonna leave these here...lol

And where is DJ Augustin now?

 

[Shanemansj13]

If Toronto cant win this series, Kawhi is most likely gone. Nothing is definite though.

If Kawhi does go they need to go ahead and try to build around Siakam and Ibaka I guess. Ride that Lowry contract out and set him loose. He isnt worth $30M+/year

Dude, get out of your feelings.

I think Kawhi stays if they make the Finals.

I give it a 50/50 chance he stays if they reach the Conference Finals.

Agree about Lowry's contract.

But, Lowry > Paul > Wall's deal because it will be an expiring next year.

He's not washed.

But, he isn't top tier adjacent either.

For 30 plus per, you need to be.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Are people blaming Lowry for tonight's loss? I didn't see that.

Ibaka was terrible. Green was pretty bad. And Leonard was human.

Nope.

All I said was I'm taking the 6ers in game 7 because of Lowry's chronic case of hairball-itis in the playoffs and Dude got weepy.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Don't give yourself too much credit. I'm not getting weepy at all. You do not know what you're talking about when it comes to Lowry . You said tonight was his fault. You say every loss is his fault. You see they're choking yet they're still alive in the playoffs 7 wins under their belt going home to play game 7. But keep yapping. It obviously makes you feel better

Go quote the post where I said it was his fault.

I said I'm taking the 6ers because he's a choker.

You have his c0ck lodged so far down your throat that you can't even read straight..

It is fairly simple for Toronto.

If the role players play how they did in games 1-3 and tonight then they lose. If they show up as they did in games 4 and 5 then they probably win easily

It isn't that simple though.

Because Philly's reality is that they are still extremely young. Embiid and Simmons could go AWOL like they have in multiple games this series. Redick and Harris could struggle with their shots as they have multiple games this series.

There is a decent chance game 7 could be a really ugly low scoring affair where neither team plays well. I think there are many ways Toronto can win this game.

Kawhi has been fantastic.

But Toronto is not beating Milwaukee.

They are simply better.

 

[eaglesnut]

Hes 6'11 like garnett was 6'11. Not a chance.

How tall was Garnett?

Couldn't agree more. Toronto will need their role players to be something special consistently to beat the bucks.

Much better chance Philly beats Toronto then Toronto beating Milwaukee.

 

[eaglesnut]

Should be a good game 7. Both teams need to bring it on the same night. Only one more chance to do it.

 

[Taddy Mason]

happy to see this game is scheduled for 1900. with the prospect of 3 games on Sunday I figured they might be relegated to an early start being the only east coast teams and don't think the sixers play as well in early games.

And whoever lose, their season will be a failure IMO.

After Sixers acquired Butler/Harris and Raptors traded for Kawhi in the offseason, conference finals was a must for both teams

.....and Gasol.

Do you think the Raptors style has cost Marc some money this summer?

9 and 7 doesn't look great.

But, he's doing all that they've asked for the greater good.
