Anything can happen as you said but the likelihood of us beating Brooklyn in the playoffs is pretty low. I will try my best to just enjoy the growth this team has shown and keep in mind that they're still young and will have their struggles in the playoffs. But them experiencing it and hopefully learning from it is what matters most.

DD, TR and JV will benefit BIG TIME from having playoff experience. Things are different during the playoffs.....the intensity is insane.....the refs call fouls differently....our young guys will experience this. That is what's important moving forward(imo). PLUS we'll be able to see what we have in some of these guys.I relish negativity and disappointment. It is not healthy. Somebody buy me a pony.

There's no way they want Chicago (assuming Chicago stays in the top 4). Generally the bottom seeded teams will be gunning for the Raps as the easiest first round matchup from the top 4.I relish negativity and disappointment. It is not healthy. Somebody buy me a pony.

No athlete in pro sports, anyhwere, worth his salt would let you say that without smacking your lips off. These guys aren't here for excuses or "moral victories". Moral Victory is a term made up by media people, not coaches or players..... its ridiculous.
The fact thi steam is hot is EXACTLY why Toronto needed this win. It was a bad loss, and they all know it. The bounce back will be telling of who they are, and where they are as a team right now. They should come out next game ready to work.....HARD.
Did anyone here really think we'd sweep the nets if we played them in the playoffs? Then why get so panicky? I'm sure everyone understands that in a best of 7 they'd probably steal a game or two, correct? Well that's what happened here. One game does not a better team make. For an extreme example, the Sixers beat the heat earlier this year.
Always remember: the other team is trying too, probably just as hard. Th raptors certainly didn't corner the market on "heart and hustle"
