@ EVERYONE

I’m a HUGE Lakers fan, I have been for years. And when I watched them lose to the Raptors, I wasn’t pissed, because the Raptors DESERVED that win. They’re a much better team than most of y’all think. IMO, there’s no question that:

Raptors > Heat, Bulls, Bobcats

no question about it.

I’m a HUGE Lakers fan. And after watching my team face Toronto, I can firmly say that:

Raptors > Heat, Bobcats, Bulls

Hands down. If y’all don’t believe it, start watching that team play. They’ve gotten A LOT better since the beginning of the season.

Agree with # 7 – Nuggets have the longest streak in the NBA right now – 7 in a row! Can’t be beat at home! SHould be Cavs, Nuggets, Lakers, Mavs, etc…

Come on Dime! Get with the mile-high club!

Hahah, I was just asking a simple question and brought out the hate. The mark of a true hate artist I guess.

I don’t think ranking lists like that deserve any hate or anything, it’s just funny seeing how some people perceive some teams compared to other teams. Toronto had by far the hardest schedule up to this point, with a damn near new team, and though they aren’t “contenders” they have the potential to be pretty good if they toughen up some and quit being so fucking soft in the 4th quarter (check out how often they are outscored in the 4th…it’s sick). Are they the 19th best team in the NBA right now? Hell no, they are a lot better than that and if they can put together a good run with their weaker schedule coming up, they MIGHT find themselves sitting at 3rd or 4th (in East) depending on how ATL or Orlando play.

This shit is amusing though.

Dime doesn’t really watch Raptor games and nor could they obviously give a shit with the articles that have come out time and again….so all we can do is get mad.

But according to English over there, why? We’re all just faggots no? Can expect nothing less from a forum posting tough guy

@all the Raptors fans

Its not like DIMEs list will determine the playoff brackets or something. I think they do that stuff to you guys just to piss you off and get you all worked up. lol, you guys take the bait every hitlist too.

On a side note, MTV Jams was snapping last night with Mos Def, Kweli, Rakim, Alchemist, and a host of true hip hop artist (until they played the dog pound) for a nice chunk of their music block. Then of course came Ludacris’s “How low can you go” song to ruin the moment.

@Austin,

No way do the bulls “build” anything around Noah. So now it’s not safe to say that. I wouldn’t build $h!t castles around him.

@peli

I agree. The other publications take into account everything from sched., home-away wins/losses, to injuries, to overall record. I’m not quite sure how Dime does it but it does it doesn’t seem like much effort is put into it. Same goes with their articles.

The Raptor fans here are questioning the REASONING behind the 2-spot drop off after a good week which included a win versus the champs… not their #19 position. IMO, they are right in doing so. It’s crazy that a team goes 2-1, beats the champs and drops 2 spots. If you cannot understand why the Raptor fans have an issue with that, you are an idiot. I’m curious about the reasoning behind it too. If anything, there shouldn’t have been any movement with the middle-of-the-pack teams.
