Absolute chills seeing the resilience in Canada to come back and best Spain for a chance to advance in the FIBA World Cup and clinch an Olympics berth. Historic moment for the program. We will look back at this as turning point. Letโs keep the train going! ๐๐ฝ๐ฅ๐ฏ
@william_lou@WhozMEECH After being bummed out about Kawhi leaving, I remembered being amped about guys like this being the saviour ๐ .. a dude whose biggest contribution was saying โballโ postgame! Wonโt take much to get back into the groove of excitement and that too without sky high expectations ๐๐
@william_lou Jay Williams really went from saying three weeks ago โIf he wins a championship, heโs leaving. If he loses a championship, heโs leaving.Heโs leaving.โ , to today โI think heโs staying.โ ๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ I still believe 95% of the talk around Kawhi was always pure conjecture/speculation
5 words I canโt believe Iโm typing- the Raptors are NBA CHAMPS ๐จ๐ญโค๏ธ Blessed to have experienced the night we have long dreamt of amongst friends & amongst a sea of strangers coming together in euphoria at City Centre to celebrate..We REALLY did this ๐ #Rapsin6ix#WetheNorth
@william_lou Greatest life moment as a sports fan (having been born post Jays titles). Show that anything is truly possible! After having witnessed the adversity organization has gone through this last decade & a half, turning things around in such a manner is nothing short of extraordinary
ONE WIN FROM AN NBA TITLE ... ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ My Lord ๐๐๐๐๐ The poise and resiliency of this squad โค๏ธโค๏ธ Gonna have to pull out my classic Bargnani jersey as a tribute to to this looong journey in the potential clincher- letโs go take whatโs ours in Game 5 ๐ช
Still trying to process this & put it into words.... all the down years , all the struggles , all the playoff pain. All roads lead to this moment. Kawhi is a gift from God, as is Masai. Kyle has lived through struggle & persevered ๐๐ The Raptors are in the NBA FINALS ๐ญ๐ญโค๏ธโค๏ธ
What a win, what a bout of resiliency by the Raptors ๐ค.... weโre really ONE WIN from the FINALs ๐๐๐๐๐ Shout out FVV Sr and Jr ๐ ๐ฏ ๐ฅ
@HPbasketball He was a 6MOY finalist last year and played well throughout the year... itโs not like heโs a 15th man. I know this is more than youโd ever expect but youโre acting like heโs a complete nobody ๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ
@WoodleySean Apart from not adjusting, the thing that annoys me the most about nurse is he doesnโt appear confident at all... any time something isnโt going right the man looks like heโs going to cry or is in a taste of panic. Not the look you want from your head coach
@WoodleySean Issue w/these โinsightsโ is they are always followed by Windy saying no one knows what Kawhi is thinking bc his inner circle is so tight & obv his own lack of any indication. It seems โppl around the NBAโ are going based on rumours last summer pre trade & extrapolating ๐คท๐ฝโโ๏ธ
@Swarlayzers Craziest thing is these contacts heโs talking about arenโt regular contacts (from personal exp.)- Keratoconus requires use of heavier RGP lenses which can feel like a rock on the eye...big credit to him if he got used to that so easily and hasnโt missed a beat
JV was such an incredible guy & a decent player who practically grew up before our eyes ๐ฅ.... tough seeing this happen as a longtime fan but understand reasoning with the win-now mentality! Gotta pray that this move bears fruition and wish all 3 guys the best ๐ Welcome Marc ๐ฏ
