2nd Round : Toronto vs Philadelphia

My word ! What a beat dung handed to Philadelphia.

They were made to look soooo outta their League !

A 40 point lead at one point ??????

Leonard is thinking about staying with Toronto

wat happen to LA? IT TOO COL' IN tORONTO. HE WILL BE BETTAH OFF IN la

I still maintain and I will say it again in Italics and in the blue:
The Marc Gasol trade was a stupid trade, too expensive and unnecessary.

that trade cost Toronto Valencunis, C J Miles and Delon Wright. what that did was rape Toronto's Bench, take away a very, very good and ambitious young center in Valencunis..for a 33 year old with the intention of dealing with Joel Embiid.

there was and is no way Marc Gasol at 33 was ever going to deal with effectively or stop Joel Embiid. that was a most inefficient analysis by the Raptors front office. Valencunis would have done just as well against Embiid

with a player as good as Embiid you have to forget using one man to defend him. you have to defend him in the whole plan of the game..change the game to disrupt his flow. you have to know what he can do and cant do relative to how a games goes and make sure you have a game flow to create for him maximum discomfort and disruption of his style while running defenders at him all the time.

Embiid is simply to good to be one on one with. you have to get Shaq for that, Olajuwon and centres of that quality to go one on one with Embiid. Marc Gasol is not that good..even when he was younger. and you go and give so much for him.

now the Raptors bench is crap...the starters are playing heavy minutes. and they better hope that Embiid does not recover. if he does the load may become too heavy for the Raptors again

I maintain that Masai became way too clever for his own good here. weer I owners of the Raptors I would have a serious talk with him about that Trade... and the Leonard Trade as well

Jacob Poetl, Delorn Wright, C J Miles..Valencunis...all these are guys gone and the Raptor bench is dead..for who Marc Gasol

NOW THAT STATS REVEAL THAT WHEN A RAPTOR STARTER SITS DOWN FOR A REST PRODUCTION ON ALL LEVELS DROPS PRECIPITOUSLY

so what is to happen when the starters wear out..which is a point that will be arrived at?
so what..a desperate Masai Uriri wanting to win at all costs sells his chances for one Man Gasol..thinking that one man would be enough to deliver a championship?

if that was the case then Masai is a lunatic..for no one man can do anything anywhere anytime. it is always a collective even when they say is one man and he gets praise. Ujiri sold his Starter and his bench for Gasol..and actually sold his chances of winning at the same time.

lunatic, incompetent reasoning! I hope his lunacy acts like the shield he will need when the Raps lose and the 'commentariat' gets after him. they are gearing up already as more and more you hear talk about the state of the Raptors bench

I SIMPLY CANT FIGURE OUT WHY MASAI WOULD DO THAT. NOW IF HE ENDS UP RUNNING MEMPHIS IF THE RAPTORS FIRE HIM WE MAY HAVE AN IDEA. BUT RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS QUITE INCOMPREHENSIBLE

Anyway what do I care? I don't care at all..not anymore! win or lose I am no longer a Raptor fan. I got my heart involved and once Ujiri started to fuck around I got out of there.

I had taken it that he was indeed very smart as per all the reports about him. but once I discovered that that was not the truth I cut...split. I made the mistake of getting my heart around the Raptors. totally wrong

experience has taught me not to do stuff like that..to like, to have feelings about things, objects, people... beyond oneself, that one has no control over.

I have nutten more to say about the Raptors. one reason I went on and on was to engage the board

I have never seen a Conference FINAL in NBA

Now that my City is IN : I CARE !!

when we get KO'ed by Milwaukee , my season ends

or maybe I will peep a couple games FINAL to see meh bwoys Kevin Durant and Dramon Green
Clay Thomson looking good as do Stef Curry !

That was some serious lixxx we took in Philly !

Final score is not a good reflection of being outplayed ~

Raptors should allow the younger Sixers to meet Milwaukee Bucks

allow dem fuh wat

yuh is jesus now... turning yuh other cheeks?

no matter wat deh have to fight fuh it. and Milwauk4ee will sweep either of these 2..4 straight. no time to was'e

I have to laff again at the team Masai built. you know he shud ge fiyah fuh dat. waiit until the media start to take him apart

the skunt get pissed and fiyah Casey. deh tell him at bizness school NEVER, EVER GET VEX AS AN EXECUTIVE. NEVER LET EMOTION GET IN THE WAY OF CLEAR ESSENTIALLY WELL THOUGHT OUT DECISIONS

the skut get vex and was vex for a long while as made mistake after mistake. that was his emotion making decisions not his head

and I see the media saying Kawii will evaluate staying his option of staying in Toronto..and Masai chiming in with a lot of TO centric commentary

that's jess propaganda. there is no reason at all Kawii will stay in TO with that jackass team Masai built. Masai wud have to pay Leonard huge bucks then find a real bench after he destroyed his bench for old man Gasol

and dat is if Gasol will stay but he is neither here nor there. Gasol is not worthy of the price that was paid for him. he cant make up the difference of what To lost/paid to get him

so Masai has to find a center to replace Gasol and a bench. Leonard can see that. he has seen what Masai has done. Masai has o get a point guard as well. Lowery is almost done and Van Vleet cant cut it.

will Leonard stay with such A team and its silly management when the excellent Doc Rivers is looking at him..or Fizdale with eh Knicks in New york and Durant? does Siakam compare to Durant?

never! Leonard is gone. it makes no sense to stay with this stupid Raptor team
