Playoffs Round 4: Game 6: Raptors at Warriors!

Shimmy Loose


  • The Series goes back to Oakland as the Raptors fell short of closing out the Warriors on Monday. It's back to business and Toronto will need to stop Klay Thompson and Steph Curry for a shot at the Championship
  • Kevin Durant went down in the first quarter of Game 5 with a ruptured achillies and is expected to miss the entire 2019-2020 season. Kevon Looney also left the game but is probable for tonight
  • All it will take is one win for Toronto to make it to the promised land. OG Anunoby is available, but has yet to get the call from rookie coach Nick Nurse. Likely due to him worrying about Anunoby's conditioning
  • Win or lose this is the last NBA game to ever be played in the Oracle Arena, as the Warriors are getting a new stadium for next season

Ecstasy Of Gold

The Raptors are going for the Gold, they sometimes wear White & Gold and they are in Golden State. Also this track is just so damn epic, needs to be played loud!

Delerium Tremens

This Belgian Strong Pale Ale is world famous and was named The Best Beer in The World for 2008. It comes in hard at 8.5% and it's logo is a pink elephant, as it has been known to cause hallucinations. Whether the Raptors lose and you want to numb your pain, or they win and you want to lose your mind. Delerium is a good choice for you


Raptors lead series 3-2!

Playoff Round 4: Game 5: Warriors at Raptors!


  • Game 5 back in Toronto and the Raptors hold a commanding 3-1 lead in the series. I know what everyone is thinking. The anticipation is there. Those of us who have been there for so long can hardly comprehend the reality of this game. Those along for the ride on the bandwagon are hoping they are about to witness history
  • Kevin Durant, who has missed every game in the NBA Finals so far, is listed as a game time decision. But I think we all know, given the implications of this game, #35 will be suited up and ready to go come tip-off
  • Klay Thompson and Kevon Looney both came back in the Warriors' loss to the Raptors Friday night.
  • It's all systems go, full steam ahead. You're holding the rope and the sword. Just let them fall

Classified - "Oh, Canada"

I know there is no real mention of the Raptors or Basketball even, but since they're letting the crowd sing the lead on the anthem tonight. I figured there was no better song than this

Great Canadian Beer

Thought picking champagne might be a bit too premature or presumptuous. So grab some freinds or gather somewhere you know fellow Raptor fans will be and have a cold one. You're not gonna want to miss this


Raptors lead series 3-1!

Playoff Round 4: Game 4: Raptors at Warriors!

Road Regrets



  • Raptors took game 3 in Oakland in commanding fashion. 123-109. Danny Green hit 6 3's for 18 points. Taking him to having the highest 2 point shooting % in NBA Finals history
  • Klay Thompson didn't play on Wednesday night, but he will tonight. Recovering from a strained hamstring. Kevin Durant is officially out along with Kevon Looney
  • OG Anunoby is still good to go, but has yet to see action. Maybe tonight he'll get the call

Wild Light  - "California On My Mind"

Playoff Round 4: Game 3: Raptors at Warriors!

Here Comes Revenge


  • The Warriors bounced back in Game 2 and stole one in Toronto. It really came down to one bad quarter for the Raptors who let Golden State go on a 18-0 run in the third
  • Kevon Looney left the game and was later diagnosed with a fractured collar bone. He is out for an indeterminate amount of time and Klay Thompson sprained his hamstring and is questionable for game 3
  • No word on whether Kevin Durant will play either game in Oakland, but Toronto's OG Anunoby is cleared to play

Metallica - "Here Comes Revenge"

Metallica are performing the Star-Spangled Banner tonight at Oracle Arena!!! I'm so conflicted! My favourite band supporting the opposing team of my favourite team??? Not really, Raptors all the way, but it kinda makes me wish we had Metallica instead of Drake. Nothing against him, I love his enthusiasm and love and support of Toronto and the Raptors, but Metallica at a Toronto home game would be my dream!

Playoff Round 4: Game 2: Warriors at Raptors!

Jurassic World


  • Raptors took game 1 against the Warriors at home! Pascal Siakam had a phenomenal Finals debut scoring 32 points and just bringing the hustle in general
  • Kevin Durant is still a no-go for tonight's game. Andre Igoudala who came down awkward on his leg in game 1 will play
  • Big news for Raptors fans as OG Anunoby, who has missed every game of the Playoffs so far due to an emergency appendectomy, will go tonight!
Tonight's Raptor Track!

The Used - "Blue & Yellow"

The Used's debut self-titled album has to be on the top 100 list of albums from the years 2000-2009. So many great songs and so many great memories that go along with them. "Blue & Yellow" is one of those songs.

Warrior Whiskey

From the Steamboat Whiskey company who's founder is a former Navy Seal. So the Warrior mentality is rooted deep in this one

Playoffs Round 4: Game 1: Warriors at Raptors!

The Raptors Are In The NBA Finals!


  • Yes. You read that right. The NBA Finals start tonight and the Toronto Raptors have home court advantage over the visiting reigning champs, the Golden State Warriors
  • The Warriors will be without Kevin Durant for a few games it seems as he injured his ankle in the previous series against Portland. DeMarcus Cousins however will be suiting up for Golden State, he adds a new dynamic that the Raptors haven't really seen yet this Playoffs
  • OG Anunoby might return during this series, but tonight is unlikely
  • We should enjoy this as Raptors fans, don't get too discouraged by losses and cherish every win. The Year Of The Raptor!!

Funeral For A Friend - "History"

We are witnessing sports History. Which is great, especially for Toronto and this country. The NBA Finals have never been played outside of the USA until tonight. We Truly Are The North

Playoffs Round 3: Game 6: Bucks at Raptors!

Get Yourselves in Ready Position!


  • Game 6 in the 6ix!! Raptors took control of the series for the first time with a big win on Thursday night! One more win puts them in the NBA Finals
  • It was a group effort from Toronto with Fred Van Vleet drilling 7 threes, in fact the raptors hit more 3 point shots than 2 point shots!
  • Expect Milwaukee to bring everything they got in a do or die game that they need to win to send the series back to Milwaukee. This is gonna be good!
