2016 ECF: (1) Cleveland vs. (2) Toronto

[Andrew]

Possibly, but Cleveland and Toronto will be playing their Game 2 first.

[NovU]

WTF just happened? Where was I and who posted that here?

[skoadam]

Ofc imo it will end with quick 4:0 but whats worst, i think OKC will win against GSW and it means easy win for Cavs. Im not a fan of one team but if i must choose someone i prefer GSW.

[PeacemanNOT]

Cavs in 4.

[zz21]

Is Channing Frye a taller Steph Curry? Or is Steph Just a small Frye?

[NovU]

Demoralizing. I don't care how the Raptors are great for finally making it to the Conference Finals. This can't be healthy.

[Andrew]

Well, there'll obviously be at least two more games, which are in Toronto. But with Valanciunas out, Lowry struggling, and the Cavs playing as well as they are, their chances of even just making the games competitive are looking slim.

[skoadam]

Its hard to watch eastern conference teams, 14 teams from whole NBA are some kind of NBA B, probably this is why LBJ dont want to play in one of the western conf teams. Eeeeeasy finals every year.

[ThePointForward]

So... Another roflstomp tonight?

And roflstomp it is.

[koberulz]

This is just as much an argument for mixed-conference playoffs as any unfairness in the 8th seeds in any given year.

[Sauru]

so did the NBA call into Cleveland and tell them to drag it out a bit?

[NovU]

Not on Canadian soil. We are the father of basketball.

[CT4]

Flop or naaa?!?!

[[Q]]

Does Toronto have a shot? Without Jonas?

[NovU]

Nope. That's why this win is actually a loss for the Raptors. They will have to pay whatever Biyombo asks now.

[skoadam]

It was only bad game for cavs, nothing more,nothing less. Noticed better close ups in defense but cavs have too many options in offense while raptors have only two and more often its only one. 4-1 for cavs. It will be big surprise if 4-2.
BTW. Derozen must improve his 3p shooting, he cant be only mid range shooter.
BTW2. Lbj is such a pussy with his flops
BTW3. Im not raptors fan but I dont like referees in last game, so many bad calls against raptors.

[Manni Live]

Jesus Christ! the amount of Flopping in this game went way overboard. The NBA really needs to crack down on this flopping bullshit

[zz21]

Cavs in 6

[[Q]]

LOL Dahntay Jones was sent in to hit Biyombo in the nuts

[Andrew]

I have to admit, I didn't think the Raptors had it in them. Admittedly the Cavs didn't play a great game, but the Raptors could've easily stunk it up as well and failed to capitalise. Credit where it's due, and all that. I'll still pick the Cavs to win the next two, however.

[Andrew]

So...Warriors/Raptors in the Finals? Thunder/Raptors?

They'll probably have Thunder Raptors in the next Jurassic Park film.

[Andrew]

Raptors have made it a series.

[stereoxide]

Lowry-DeRozan lighting it up. They always have a chance if these two play well although they merely choked away this one.

[Sauru]

man i told you silver said, "lebron please tell your team to calm down. no one is interested in the east because you are flat out raping everyone. please drop a couple before wrapping it up in 6 ok" oh and "dont worry we will make sure you get your revenge finals against the warriors"

[NovU]

Oh cmon. The Raptors simply outplayed them and took care of business at home. Give them credits already. Silver is rather probably reassuring crybabe LBJ he wont let Raptors be in Finals bcuz ticket sales.

LBJ's awful sidekicks' bad games were due. Also Lowry's breakout game was due. Simple as dat.
