Twitter troll Raptors' late-game meltdown in OT Game 1 loss to LeBron & Cavs
Flattering in the regular season to deceive their faithful in the postseason has been second nature to the Raptors for quite some time now. They gave detractors another exhibit for this notion in a 113-112 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers in overtime, after leading the game for nearly the entirety of the first 4 quarters.
People who were looking to jump on the Dinos' bandwagon will be way warier after Game 1 of this series, during which the Raptors basically surrendered their homecourt advantage to the King. LeBron James had another triple-double, taking his playoff career total to 21 triple-doubles.
Twitter feated on the Raptors' misery. YouTuber Dom2k had the following comment to make:
Renowned basketball analyst and the host of the sports talk show Undisputed Skip Bayless had a word to put in as well:
This particular guy was brutal in his assessment of the only Canadian franchise in the league:
