Just talking. BTW, how far have Paul and Harden gotten in the playoffs, career wise? Mitchell is the wild card. Heard on First Take that Mitchell scored over 200 pts through his first 8 playoff games. Only Kareem, and Baylor have done that.

Conference Semis and Conference Finals, in a deep West conference.

2nd round mostly, I believe. Over quite a few years.

I watched with Evil at a certain Raptor fan's apartment. Less choking... more like laying down. To be fair watching Lebron is very Jordan like. He just gets these stupid shots at will it seems. Raps are toast.

I don't what's worse, being a Knicks fan or watching your team choke to LeBron every year.

I hope you and Evil made a grown man cry

raptors simply can not play against lebron. we are good against everybody else we've faced in the playoffs the past 3 years but simply outright pwnage by lebron. look at these stats. look at our defense vs. every other team except the cavs. lebron is the buzz saw. no cavs in our bracket and we make the ecf's 3 years in a row. especially this year with our "culture reset" as you can see how our offense finally didn't sh t the bed overall in the playoffs. but lebron is our kryptonite. look at our defense vs. the cavs. ultimately that's what everybody is going to remember tho so can't do anything about that.

You could have just simplified it and just said that in playoffs Raptors are good defensively against mediocre teams but have one good all star on team and they melt

I didn't watch this past game so I can't really comment on it. Raptors make one freakin layup in first game or any super makeable shot in 4th quarter and they are 1-1. Derozen 0-13 in last 3 game from 3.

Honest question: Would Toronto (or any team in the East really) make it out of the first round against most of the Western Conference?

don't know and that's not how the playoffs work :)

with that said, raptors are like one of the 2-3 teams in the east that have an above .500 record vs. the west each year the past 4-5 years.

Could you bloody well STOP SAYING "WE"?!
News flash! You're not a bloody Toronto Raptor!
You're not even from Toronto!
You became a Raptor fan like 4 years ago, for God's sake!
