I wish I could say that I was surprised the Raptors choked against the Cavs but I'm not.  Not one little bit.  The Raptors are a bunch of mental midgets.

This has to be, without any shadow of a doubt, Perk's greatest game, LOL -

How come Draymond did not get called for a flagrant?

Drake must've thought that was Kendrick Lamar...but it was only Kendrick Perkins.

But all jokes aside, Perkins would have trashed that fool Drake lol. He lucky security guards held him back.

NOP has a chance to steal this game.  Plenty of their guys have played decent and GSW looks relatively bored.

It's SO annoying that no one can knock off this Cavs team (yet). Indy was SOOO close, and then Toronto was so close to winning tonight's game. Mucho annoying.

I also want to say that this two-day break between Games 1 and 2—both of which are in the same city—is ridiculous.

Drake has every right to talk trash to players. Fans do it all the time

I hate the new movement to make fans not trash talk players. The whole “you would never say that out in the streets to him” is a bad argument because we aren’t out in the streets.   


Plus I actually do think a lot of fans would talk trash in the streets to players

I think the Pacers gave it their best shot.

This Raptors team clearly has a mental block when it comes to LeBron.


Lowry and Derozan legit get spooked.

No he doesn’t ..he needs to sit his punk self down and behave.

Unrelated - every time I hear the name "Anna Kendrick" I always add Lamar at the end, there .

Shame New Orleans couldn't pull that one out.

[blink]

I still can't believe that Kevin Love wasn't given a T for that round house elbow he knocked DeRozan to the floor a T or a flag foul.

LOL

As long as Drake, or any fan for that matter, isn't overly lewd or vulgar, and isn't getting personal, he should be able to talk as much trash as he pleases. I have no problems with a fan engaging a player and telling that player he sucks and is a lousy no good bum. That's on the player to ignore it.

Drake isn't just a fan though.  Drake is a global ambassador for the team.  He provides their uniforms and other gear (at least for certain games).  He has access to all sections of the arena, including where the Cavs are.

Lue is so bad.

“Not a lot. Especially after Game 7, I thought Tristan might start at the 5,” Love said Tuesday. “It was really yesterday late afternoon [I found out] I was going to be matched up against Valanciunas one on one.”
