Yeah!!!! and...… the Raps had an 8-0 lead. WTF can't believe they allowed them to score!:behindsofa:They beat a top team in the West, great. Why did they fall behind by 17 and why didn't they win by MORE!
There will be 29 other Teams after kawhi services when free agency starts. There will be no shortage of options. That said Toronto will have the advantage. Chances (imho) are better than 50/50 he resigns with the raps based on Team, MLSE Management, Toronto fan base and $$$$$$$$$. The concerning part would his family and climate. Btw if he leaves Toronto there is no way he is signing with the Lakers.

wonk, dawg you guys...where's the sarcasm font whence you want it lol!! Az, they should because top shelf always beats hall full top shelf buuutttttttt.... Regardless, this will be fun but I'm still playing the June game, so this and Dec 12 are still mini statements and growing opportunities. And this Klaw guy, when he speaks, he is damn spot on. And he speaks more often than you'd think. Btw, I've always had NB's as my footwear cuz I'm old but now I'm leading edge again!!!
Always trying to take game by game but if they can start 2019 with losses under ten they will have survived December well. 18-4, someone says Warriors are good, come on in and let's go Raps!
Yeah they still have Durant(top 3 player/scorer in the league) and Thompson (top 3 deadliest shooter), 2 0r 3 soldid veterans........but watch Alphonso Mckinnie be the guy that destroys us.
...you might be right that they will be a tough out, as always, but McKinnie is out, too...! I, too, envisioned AM rising to the task but he's been out a little bit and was slowing down just before he got hurt. So, let's go Raps...
you could argue that Steph and Dramond weren't there and we only won in overtime, but they can't get much hotter as a team than Durant was by himself. Great win. took care of business at home. In two weeks we have to try and steal one in Golden State while they are at full strength.
Siakam is proving to be a real force along with Lowry, Leonard, Ibaka and Valunciunas(in the right matchups). I think Delon Wright and OG have a little more growing and finding their spots but have also shown signs of greatness. We have 58 games left for those guys to grow. Van Vleet will have his big games too but at times he's just too small.

Curry Green and Cousins all out, that is a lot of talent to be missing, having said that, will take the W. Durant and Leonard put on awesome displays of talent. Was a great game to watch!
Agree with you Wonky Raps youngsters are still learning and they have a huge upside! Fred V has a huge heart and has basketball smarts, he will continue to improve as well. I remember when KLo was "too small", haven't heard that for a while!
Cavs next! Just hope the boys are focused and there is no let up after the win over Golden State!
Agree awesome game to watch, very entertaining, Durant and Leonard were beasts, good win even without Curry and Green
Kevin Durant is unreal, I hope he doesn't forget to invite Dreymond to his next Tupperware party. The Raps gutted out a win but they still have a long way to go to challenge the Golden Showers.
I hope Shaq and Chuck didn't forget their mittens.

Well, that was as regular a regular season game 23 can be...:fish: Basketball is being berry, berry, berry guuudddd to the Six right now. Games like last night was always played between 2 other teams somewhere else but we got an instant classic all to ourselves. Yes, it's regular season still and ignore all the other who was there and who wasn't, this kind of top shelf ball is now available to us potentially for at least 59 more games and more!
Someone's gonna rest tomorrow (pick Lowry, green, or Leonard again) so no let up against sad Cavs, 19-4 let's go Raps!

The Emotional Lesbian (Boogie) doesn't bother me, JV has played his best games against him in the past. Green and Curry is an entirely different matter and Klay Thompson showed he can be lights out.
The Raptors maybe missing a third wheel next to Kawhi and Lowry? Siakam has potential to be that player sometime down the road. But, he is still learning.
"Ugly" you are being generous! After watching Golden State/Toronto that game was like a bad high school game! Good thing KL showed up because pretty much everyone else didn't! Raps played down to the Cavs level!
Why are the talking heads still making excuses for Miles? He sucks! Make him an anchor at the end of the bench unless you can find a team that wants him.
I bitch about the leads the Raps blow, again last night against the crappy Cavs, they may get away with it during the regular season, if it continues in the playoffs could be one and done. Got to get some killer instinct and run a few teams into the ground! Let them know how good you really are!!
Great game vs the Warrrior BUT Cousins, Green, and Curry did not play and we barely won in overtime. I like the Raptors chances of winning the East but the finals..… not without one more upgrade.
