    Sad--after all that talk about "parity", the only first round upsets have been us and the Wiz...5 seeds. Who wants to bet that San Antonio and Brooklyn win today?

    Yeah... I hope Toronto can win. But, Brooklyn is going to get the push. It's like the damn WWE. lol.

    I fall into the gambler's fallacy, thinking that since all game 7's went for the home team yesterday that today a road team should win. But they probably won't. That's why I rarely bet on sports.

    Toronto-Brooklyn may be the most boring series to go 7 games ever... It's not even compelling.

    Toroto's lineup is sooooooooooo small right now.

    Lowry (6') Vasquez (6'6) DeRozan (6'7) Johnson (6'9) Hayes (6'6)

    They look like a mid major college bball team lol

    I would love to see the raptors lose in front of their ignorant crowd.

    They're kinda getting screwed/not executing down the stretch. The blocking call on Lowry was kinda BS and they call the charge down the court next possession... meh.

    Livingston is one of the best stories in the nba.

    Also nets will give Miami more trouble than the raptors would.
