Yeah, the Raptors lost, but they’re still the best team in the East; The refs ejecting DeMar DeRozan might’ve been the push the Raptors needed to dominate in the playoffs

They keep talking about the Toronto Raptors like they don’t have a real superstar on their team, like they don’t have the NBA’s second best record, and like they didn’t end Houston’s 17 game win streak. These dudes are for real. With the playoffs coming, they’re just warming up.

Still, nobody is giving the Toronto Raptors their respect. Coming into the game against OKC, they were 52-17, that’s a better record than the Warriors. When a team is coming up, like the Raptors, they have a game like this, and the refs really tried it.

DeMar DeRozan is still a young man, so he lost his cool, and, as the team’s leader, they lost their cool. Winning how they were, they were the perfect team to be spoiled by a talented Thunder team. But, this loss might just be the inspiration the Raptors needed to really come through, this postseason run.
