Best fans in the NBA? Your Toronto Raptors (Fan appreciation)

[mcHAPPY]

DeMar said it felt like a playoff game with all the Raps fans in house. "It was amazing, especially for me being here thru the tough times"

Casey on Raps fans in CLE: "It was like old-school soccer, travelling with the flag. We have the best in the league and our guys know it"

— Josh Lewenberg (@JLew1050) November 23, 2014

More Casey on fans: "When you put your hearts on the line and lay it on the line every night, fans will follow."

Raptors fans in attendance have turned heads here in Cleveland. Many Cavs staffers and media talking about them

Pretty sizable contingent of Raps fans in Detroit last year but this is by far the biggest group I've seen in a visiting NBA arena

Here's why: http://t.co/Y2OiaTZuQG #RTZ RT @t_dotflight31: We have the BEST fans in the #NBA #WeTheNorth

— Toronto Raptors (@Raptors) November 23, 2014

Raptors just doing whatever they want vs outclassed Cavs team. Lou Williams (30 pts) and Raps fans simply mocking them in CLE. 85-71 end 3Q

You better believe with the Jurassic Park, home game buzz, and traveling fans NBA players are going to see Toronto a little different. Hopefully it pays off over the next couple of summers.

If you've been a Raptor fan for 20 years, like me, this is for you:

**Add your awesome tweets/articles/whatever of Raptor fans to the thread**

we only made it to the playoffs last year... i have a hard time imagining what the reaction would be if we ever make it to the finals. Game changer.

I would pay GREAT money to see a Raptors/Warriors finals for that reason alone.

That Lou Williams Instagram photo makes me so happy. Well, they all do obviously but that one in particular.

From ESPN's recap

In the game's final minutes, the loudest noise at Quicken Loans Arena came from several hundred fans who made the trip from Toronto and chanted, "Let's Go Raptors."

We definitely have the best home crowd in the EAST. If we have a couple of more showings in other peoples arenas like last night, we'll steal "best fans in the NBA" from the Warriors.
