Let's goooo! Yet again, major props to Smart.  And thankfully Jaylen and Tatum showed up again.  Great win.

I got the Celts in 6 or 7 versus Heat.

Pretty sure who ever raised Marcus taught him never give up and to fight with everything and more no matter what! He has incredible spirit.
His Mom raised him, if you don't know his story about him growing up, you should take a few, to look it up, it might make you understand who he is and why he's like he is...

Toronto are a TOUGH team. That's the biggest thing I took away from this series.

Went down like true defending champions.  Their fans should be proud of them.  That team had some insane fight.

I remember when they got eliminated in Game 6 in their own house by LeBron James. They still chanted "Let's go Raptors" even in defeat. Some very incredible fans there.

Raptors were floppy and gritty in this series, but respectable division rivals. The only division rival that I don't hate. Can't say the same for the Knicks, Nets, or esp the 76ers.

As tough as you can get.
Hats off to Toronto, they went down like champions. This series shouldn't be THAT close, yet they made C's earn every bit of it.
There was a moment in the first half, where it was kind of slipping away, but guys found a way to stay poised and get a major boost in confidence ahead of the conf finals.
I think our next game is scheduled on tuesday, so C's have some time to refresh.
Big, Big W. Congrats everybody! :)

Agree Toronto deserve credit. We are the more talented team, but they fought hard and used veteran wiles to make it a series.

I would say, in the order of who was more impressive on their side, for me it's:
Ibaka, Lowry, Powell, OG, VanVleet.
And Nurse of course))

Was feeling really down after game 6. I don’t usually carry over losses to the next day. Thought they blew it for sure and the Raptors just got lucky with their low % jacked 3s near the end and overall overachieving .

When Powell was fast break near the end Of tonight’s gAme I said here we go again with this no name about to put us away again with some LeBron finish and then Smart just brought him All the way back Down to reality. What a finish.

Yeah that kind of loss could really bring down a team.

This group has had it going. When Hayward's back, he should come off the bench.

Almost forgot we got to conf finals minus Hayward..lot of talent on this team. What must Horford be thinking!

He's just laying back on that giant stack of cash the 76ers gave him....

Brad has one cool mask during the post game interviews. I wonder where we could get that!

Send him a couple of TOs and Challenges he will send you a mask. He collects TOs and Challenges.

He should.

Kemba, Smart, Brown, Tatum, Theirs
First guard= Wanna
First wing= Hayward
First big= Kanter/TL depending on matchup.

Hayward injury can be a blessing this time around. Brown and Tatum getting more rest as Hayward takes control is can be huge next round or finals.

Series saving block by Marcus, could easily have been a basket and foul, Raps comeback and win.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

Hayward needs to buy the entire team Dinner for getting us this far without him.
