Thought the Raptors had 'em after the miracle overtime shot in Game 6. Ah well. Exciting series nevertheless. Go Raptors Go! 🏀

Sad Pascal Siakam is no longer a Raptor.

Note: I'm sad to see the Raptors didn't make it farther into the NBA playoffs this year, but I was still super happy to see they had made the playoffs at all, after losing Lowry, Leonard, Green, Gasol, Powell, and Ibaka (how is that possible?).  That's coaching from Nick Nurse and all-star determination from Siakam, VanVleet, and the rest of the team. Hoping they improve a lot next year. But still happy to see how well they did this year.

Sad to hear that Kyle Lowry's no longer a Raptor.

Super frustrated by changes made to the Raptors since their championship run.

Fare thee well Normal Powell, coveted former linchpin of the Toronto Raptors.

Always remember that the Raptors did win. I'm not sure if you know how freakin' impossible it is to win the NBA finals if you're not the team with the best players in the league, but it is a rare occurrence to be cherished and applauded. Not that the Raptors don't have the best players in the league. Watching Lowry for the last two rounds has made it clear that he's incredible and top 10 for sure. And the rest of the Raptors are A+ no doubt and make up for their lack of a LeBron James with outstanding defence. Just remember, every year, sometimes for multiple seasons, there are around three or four teams that really stand out. And it's super difficult to be the best of those three or four teams. Look at the Vancouver Canucks, the Buffalo Bills, the Minnesota Vikings, the San Jose Sharks, the Phoenix Suns, all stellar organizations that could make the top 4 or 5 but never came through with the win. And the Raptors did come through with an amazing freakin' win which is so freakin' sweet and still will be for many more years to come.

Love them Raptors.

Hoping it's not another Celtics/Lakers final.

Sad to see the Raptors out, but that was another excellent season. They're a stunning team who came up just a little bit short. Can't wait to see them competing again in the not so distant future.

Maelstrom.

Wherewithal.

Ensemble/Together.
