He also thought that the Spurs could defeat the OKC Thunder.

Well Raptors are stacked this season, Derozan needs to show up and help Lowry a bit more.

Donovan has much better team, he has 2 closers in Durant/Westbrook. Spurs have none.

Popovich has good foresight, he predicted the Curry would be this good in 2013, and it did happen.

I hope he's right. A Cinderella story would be fun, and I'm tired of Lebron getting a free pass each year to the Finals. At least Lebron can stay at 2/6 instead of 2/7 if he gets stuck at the ECF.

It really could be anything... I doubt he said that after a meaningless regular season game, but whatever.

I have never in my life seen one player (LeBron) go through every season facing absolutely the worst competition. Seriously, Kobe from 06-08' faced better teams in the first round every year than the 16' Raptors.
WTF. :facepalm

You could probably add '09 & '10 as well

WTF?
The Lakers were a 7 seed. They played the 2 seed those two years. A two seed doesn't have to play a higher seed until the Conf Finals.
Why does logic leave the universe every time a Kobestan talks?

Oops, I meant from 08' to 10' when LA had Kobe & Pau.
But even in 06' & 07', I seriously don't see the 7th seeded Laker team losing to this year's Raptors.

I think coach pop is a great guy and coach but I don't understand why he thinks the raptors can beat the cavs 4 times when they barely got to the ecf....like BARELY.
The only advantage I see for the raptors as far as stats go is rebounding. The cavs are far and away a better team in every other category.
How could the raptors win 4 four games against the cavs???

Just watch when Lowry and Derozan stop shooting this poorly. They're a good team.
Unless Cleveland just continues to play well and close out games beautifully I'll be surprised if this series goes less than 6.

Sweep LeBron's legs, make sure he's out of the playoffs, kidnap Irving and Love, and then it's all smooth sailing for there.

Will see further proof tonight that Raptors are legit.
