this is a basketball thread

Last night was basically the most Wisconsin Sports night imaginable.

A beer chugging contest takes place among 3 of the most popular athletes in the state & the Bucks’ super gorgeous owner’s daughter trolls Drake.

Team totally shits the bed and loses 3 straight for the first time all season.

Drake's Instagram post cracked me up this morning. I fucking hate Toronto so much though. I have developed some real antipathy for Canadians over the years that is kind of hard to explain.

I'm probably the only neutral rooting really hard for the Warriors and I hope they win this shit in four. Do it one more time for the Bay!

I feel like Toronto winning even a single game of this upcoming series would be one of the all-time great upsets in sports.

You heard Drake? They are a college team!

I heard this was going to be a 7-game series for the ages.

The Raptors have played the Warriors well in the regular season for a few years now. They have some memorable wins/close calls against us. Now they have Kawhi. We don't have Durant, have a returning/uncertain Cousins, and are relying on big performances from a bunch of nobodies again. I'm surprised that people don't think the Raptors would be very competitive.

I say Warriors in 6, but I'm hoping we pump the hell out of them and finish the sweep in Game 4 with Durant returning to drop 30.

The Warriors are going to sweep the Raptors let’s be real.

I’ve disliked the Raptors every since the NBA introduced this corny ass team name and initial jerseys in the wake of Jurassic Park getting its theatrical release. They’re a fake team with a doughy fake rapper as their biggest cheerleader.

whatever happened to real team names like the Knickerbockers or the Nationals?

Was there a basketball team called The Nationals?

Didn’t realize undo had such an affinity for a team that was leveraging the popularity of a dinosaur movie to create a marketing gimmick. Would never have expected someone to draw a straight line from that criticism to Trumpism.

That is some hard boarding!

Also, I love Jurassic Park (only the original) and was feeling called out here

You can love Jurassic Park and hate the gimmicky-ass Raptors roll-out at the same time.

Trust me.

Gotta agree with Nick. I remember thinking the ‘Dino dribbling’ logo was garbage when I was 12. I loved the movie and just thought the logo was stupid. I also felt this way about the Ducks post movie. Although their logo was weirdly endearing. 

It’s also been long enough that you can separate them from the movie too and as a franchise they’ve had some good years. I wanted the sixers to win and the raptors fucked em. I wanted the bucks to win and the raptors fucked em. I think the warriors will win but I hope the raptors fuck em.

Raps in 4.

The Raptors fan zone is called “Jurassic Park” fuck this team.

see the thing is at least they have a “fan zone”

I told y'all
