Raptors first game is scheduled for 12:00 pm on a Saturday. Toronto never performs well during those early afternoon playoff games. We're fcked! The rig is already in.

Why can't we have the 7:00 pm time slot. We finished 2nd and paid our dues the last two post-seasons. Give that slot to another team!

I don't think I'll be home for the Raps game but I'll try to get a stream working at school.

Already hurts rating not being a US market, so they will always get the 1st game of the playoffs because that is when more casuals will get the chance to see them, unless there is a game 7 as well. 2) Team does not have high end star power and neither does Indiana for that regard. 2) Fans outside of the fanbase do not have much interest on the team. Either way, teams are both going to play at the same time. The guys better be ready. |

NBA couldn't have made a better bracket?
What is this minimalism?

NBA couldn't have made a better bracket? What is this minimalism? Top 16 seedings (1) Golden State Warriors vs (16) Houston Rockets (2) San Antonio Spurs vs (15) Dallas Mavericks
(3) Cleveland Cavaliers vs (14) Memphis Grizzlies
(4) Toronto Raptors vs (13) Portland Trail Blazers
(5) Oklahoma City Thunder vs (12) Detroit Pistons
(6) Los Angeles Clippers vs (11) Indiana Pacers
(7) Miami Heat vs (10) Charlotte Hornets (  Atlanta Hawks vs (9) Boston Celtics Bold would be the new matchups. |

Gonna watch out for the refs in all Raptors games. I still believe they will still do anything if possible to call in favour of Pacers as it will benefit NBA more in short-term.

Aggressive teams usually win. Raptors drive the ball a lot and nobody out East got to the line more than them. What would the league gain from favouring a smaller market ? Look, the Raptors should win because they look like the more well rounded team. If they lose, it's on them and nothing more. |

Yeah, those factors won't matter if Raps soundly beat Pacers every games and not being in too many close game situations. |

They've sucked all year covering it and Indiana could take advantage of that, where they excel defending the 3. |

I'm not feeling the lack of sideline camera shots of these playoffs games. So many aerial angles/shots. Not good!
