The Raptors are a bunch of bitches. Can't do shit on the road. Do they just go in the locker room and cry because the opponent's fans are too loud?
Softest team in the league mentally

The difference between home and away for the Raptors is absolutely outrageous.

Certainly does not match up with Purple Shirt Guy in Charlotte, but a strong 2nd place showing.

So basically the difference between where games are played in the ECF is that in Cleveland, Tristan gets to foul the shit out of Biyombo, holding him down so he can't even jump for rebounds half the time, and that in Toronto, Bismack gets foul the shit out of Tristan, holding him down so he can't even jump for rebounds half the time.
 
Welcome to the NBA, where the home court center gets to foul the shit out of the other center. I don't know if I've ever seen a more pathetically physical 5 matchup. Neither of these guys actually boxes out. They just grab and pray the ball bounces to them or one of their teammates.

yes, I agree. The 40 point margin can be explained solely by Tristan holding Biyombo. If they had called just two or three more fouls on him, it would have changed the outlook of the entire game.

Jordan, Lebron, and Curry all won their first titles at age 27. Bird, Magic, Shaq, Bill Russell notably all won titles at age 27
 
Any guesses to how old Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook are?
Great article

Warriors need to go down

The bandwagon bay area fans adopted the team and its awful. It's one thing to see all the giants gear but now i see so much warriors gear

Im like man. You people dont even know who adonal foyle is. Or andris biedrins. Or remember baron leaving for more money or remember the troy murphy days or remember tanking to keep their pick(harrison barnes) and dont even know who monta is

Just makes me sick

Real Warriors fans wanted Lacob to sell the team several years ago.  Nobody really knows what they're talking about.

I just hope it's the end of the term Death Line-up. So dumb.

More like RIP Line-up

Man, you threw out some names in there that I even forgot about! I would say you are pretty accurate on your statement about being bandwagon fans.  Almost reminds me of all the "new" Seattle Seahawk fans who don't even know who Shaun Alexander, Steve Largent or Brian Bosworth are!!
