One of my favorite things to do on the internet (other than make highlight videos) is to go on Raptors message boards after they lose a game. The funness factor of that activity gets multiplied by like a hundred if the game in question is a playoff game. and it gets multiplied by a bajillion when the game in question is a blowout where the two alleged “stars” of the team perform poorly.
Suffice it to say, that’s pretty much how I spent all of last night. Raptors fans are currently on suicide watch and it’s actually the most hilarious thing ever. They probably hate Myles Turner for making Patrick Patterson look like Patdick Fatterson, but they hate Lowry and DeRozan a lot more.
It’s not like the series is even over. There’s a deciding game seven and the Raptors are still probably the better team on paper as long as everybody shows up. Just a heads up: if the Raptors lose the series on Sunday, I’m not going to make highlights for a while. I’ll be collecting angry forum posts to compile into a book that I’ll publish in the offseason.
