Eastern Conference Finals Game 6: Cleveland Cavaliers @ Toronto Raptors. Fri, May 26th 2016. 8:30 pm

What did he say?

Can't even REMEMBER what he was on about... Was it about how easy the East was? Was it about how the Cavs couldn't hope to guard Durant or Westbrook? Was it about how DeRozan bleeds purple and gold and can't wait to sign with the Lakers?

I just saw a guy frothing at the mouth.

 

[Mr. Orange]

Great win. Back to back Finals is great but we have to get it done this year. Let's hope the Thunder win to give us home court.

Go Cavs!!!

This year!!

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Watching the halftime show now, and I'll tell you fellas WHAT: the MINUTE that Sage Steele divorces her husband, I will be the first guy to swoop in and make her my bride.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

The hits keep on coming!

 

[KilgoreTrout]

If Kyrie could take over this 2nd half, and spare LeBron some energy, that would be wonderful.

Prophet.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

They're bound to get hot and desperate. Elimination at home guys. You can't put it away easily. But time for the gang to close it out nearing the 5 minute mark in the 4th.

Prophet.

 

[Rick Astley]

Anyone could have guessed that. It's freaking LeBron James yo!

 

[Andrew]

I didn't know what team to expect going into this game and I quickly saw LBJ try to set the tone and I knew the game was over. The Cavaliers were on a mission and it showed, they played until the game was no longer in question. They blitzed the Toronto Raptors and they didn't know how to respond. The game was physical, the game was slow at times but Cleveland ended up making key defensive plays or spectacular offensive plays and that was the team I want to see in the finals. Granted the big 3 were the big 3 tonight but everyone stepped up and its going to be difficult for any opponent to beat this team 4 out of 7 games.

Let's Go Cavs!

Toronto has some kickass fans.

I missed the post-game stuff--what did the TOR fans do?

 

[Surge]

I missed the post-game stuff--what did the TOR fans do?

Standing ovations and chants for like 20 minutes after the buzzer. "We the North" and "Let's Go Raptors"

Also looked like not many people left. Looked like the arena was pretty much packed even after the game was decided and into the post game chants.

It was pretty cool.

 

[AsianDawg]

A little patronizing to be sure, but I actually respect Toronto's effort in this series. They reminded me of the Cavs against the Bulls in the 1992 ECF; valiant but doomed. They Raps did well to win two games in this series, tbh.

I've had other people tell me that this week...good comparison! The Cavs played over their heads in both games in '92 and one of them MJ had the flu.

I find it funny Frye is wearing #9, not unlike an obscure CLE QB from 2006 we know

There's the wag we wanted.View: https://vine.co/v/i9V19eilBbu

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Cavs fought them off at the right time. Not a sweep, but who cares. REAP is about to be in the hands of the Cavaliers.

What does REAP stand for?

 

[Dr. Claw]

What does REAP stand for?

"Revenge" or "Getback". It's a very obscure reference to the Bill & Ted movies when the Grim Reaper always tries to get a rematch.

There should be a special record book category for how many consecutive Finals you made while being THE MAN on your team.

Just Lebron, Russell, and Cousy would be on that list.

That mofo knows where he needs to be to get them rings. Right next to Bron, of course!
