HoopsHype.com Toronto Raptors Twitters

Yep...I love the college kids but big men playing for a ring and $$$ is where its at baby!! What a ball game....#nbafinals

I know he's an icon, but, honestly, if Heat wants this one, he needs to be out.

Walter Ray Allen....Bucket!!!!

Gonna review the 3pt goal..if Popvich asked for a review to get a timeout that is really smart

I reserve the right to delete that last tweet.

The fans who left must be pissed. Good

Not two, not three, not four ... rewrites

neither team with a timeout

This game is crazy..... #shhhheeeeeeesssssshhhhhh

OK will Pop be talke about like Vogel..Duncan on the bench...no rebound and James knocks down a 3 off a scramble for off reb #nbafinals

James with a couple of bad turnovers & Parker and Ginobili show up for the last 2:28 the have scored the last 8 pts in 8-0 run #nbafinals

10:30 min of "OMG" for Miami...followed by 60-90 sec of "WTF"

Canadians about to get a ring: Cory Joseph and Matt Bonner.

Fans are leaving here. For real. These fans are turrible

Clutch close by the Heat here.

Miami went to the Chalmers- James p/r and came up empty #nbafinals

Two re-writes, do I hear three ... ?

Nothing like big men playing for the ring!!! NOTHING!!!!!! #nbafinals

Duncan's back must be hurting from carrying the Spurs...Parker 4/16 & Ginobili 1/3 with 6 TO's...Spurs 4/15 fg in 4th...#nbafinals

Lol oh now it's my fault if the heat lose. Not Tim Duncan but my fault. That makes sense. Lol

Maybe LeBron is the biggest point shaver in the history of man. It would explain a lot.

Lol haha ppl mad at me now...

Miami outscoring SAS 19-7 in the qtr...this place is alive...#nbafinals

Lol ok so I said some things in my last few tweets, I mean I still think San Antonio is gonna win but this makes things very interesting

7-0 run by the Heat to take the lead...Shooting 8/10 in qtr led by LBJ with 10 pts...#nbafinals

Heat 6/8 this qtr

James with 8 of Miami's 14 in the quarter...the last backdown there was no help...#fuggetaboutit in the lane with no help #nbafinals

The way Wade is (not) defending, Heat better off going with shooters.

Heat going to the James Chalmers p/r and its working #nbafinals

Here comes the freight train.

And oh ya...Tim Duncan willing his team tonight #nbafinals

Heat like to talk about Pace and Space but not happening tonight...they have to be careful not to panic...need stops...SAS 50% fg #nbafinals

Points in the paint: 44-16. LeBron has 12 minutes to shut up the critics, maybe forever. Or else, it's going to be another long summer.

I wonder how Michael Jordan would have fared being covered by Boris Diaw?

James and Wade have decided to just stop running back on defence whenever they don’t get a call. Great Championship composure, that.

Danny green is about to check in, y'all need to guard him now..

Goodnight Miami...

Spurs going for the knockout...#nbafinals...Heat on the ropes

Might enjoy watching Derrick Rose teleport around more than anything else in this league, but the LeBron freight train is pretty good too

Why did you jump Mike Miller!!?

It's too bad the Heat probably force Game 7, because the Duncan story was really easy to write.

Watching Finals on PVR is my own version of tape delay and another transparent effort to feel young again.

Watching Game 6 on PVR. If you call I won't answer twitter.

Shaq should have been better, but doesn't have the longevity. Kobe wasn't best player on team all the time. LeBron has long way to go.

This is a great series...

If — IF — this continues, Bosh is going to be scapegoated, which will not be entirely fair.

There you go, Wilt would be the obvious one

MJ, Russell, Magic, Kareem, Bird, who else for sure do you have to put ahead of TD? Oscar? Zeke? West? (Probably forgetting someone obvious)

<3 Spurs <3 #analysis

Spurs dominant in paint. Heat best when winning points in paint battle ... not done, but, that's very troubling Heat sign 10-0 when win pip

For all the belly-aching about LeBron and the Heat, only down six at half. That said, if Duncan closes it out, where is he on the pantheon?

Boris Diaw...really?!! #nbafinals

King of the beignets!

Manu in the bakery...#turnovers

Birdman's block looked clean...even tho Duncan put him in jail behind the steel on the backdown for position #nbafinals

Tim Duncan teaching video on that last off reb...ball never came down as bounded off the floor #skills

I know young big men all wanna release the 6 footer in them but just watch Duncan on the block, classic big man moves & footwork #nbafinals

Tim Duncan on Bosh last play @Shaquille O'Neal said it best #bbqchicken #nbafinals

Think we'll be seeing Timmy again soon. Heat victimizing Spurs off of dribble with him out.

You could hear nervous murmurring and shouts of "no" from the crowd here as Danny Green launched an open three

#raptors blog: The Goods On The Game, Spurs at Heat bit.ly/15hWuAv

Battier has hit the floor the last 3 trips...1 charge 1 no-call and 1 block #nbafinals...can we pls change the rule...please

Battier scoring is huge for the #Heat He gives them the best defense of the "others" when he's knocking them down he can stay on the floor

I really hate that charge call...New rule should be no charge on air born shooter in Lower Defensive Box...#weakcall

Who is gonna win? Miami? San Antonio? I hate to say it but I think the spurs are gonna take it...

Tim Duncan looks like he smells the finish line tonight #nbafinals 10 pts early...

In the words of @Sherman Hamilton that was some serious disrespect! #spurs

Shhheeeeessssshhhhhh!!!

Tim Duncan adding to the Hall of Fame resume tonight.

Chalmers off early and Miller aggressive...good sign for the Heat #nbafinals

I hope Flo-Rida doesn't get a halftime commercial

I will cautiously take the Heat tonight, with deference to alternating wins, home court and LeBron. But I think we're all a little clueless.

Just like with Bob Houbregs (techincally highest-drafted Canadian) I don't count Fox because he was barely in Canada. Is Nash South African?

Enjoy the game, y'all. Should be fun.

I don't count Rick Fox so, Cory Joseph has a chance to become first NBA champion born and raised in Greater Toronto Area.

Anybody remember the Bosh popping bottles gif? That was even better than Curry/Turiaf/Joel

Saddened that, whatever happens, there will be no sightings of Eddy Curry and Ronnie Turiaf popping bottles in the locker room like last yr

Could be the last time the Heat introduced as: "Your NBA champion Miami Heat"

If Raptors can't draft the next Durant, they at least need a mission statement!!! -- sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba… Interesting post by @Tom Liston

Chalmers on @22wiggins going to Kansas: "He chose a great school."

Each Miami player had a Tony Dungy inspirational quote at his stall.

LeBron James, Mario Chalmers men of few words pre-game and so were questioners. Think LeBron took three questions.

Anyone else have trouble watching @NBATVCanada?

Coach Jack Donahue is being inducted into the FIBA Hall of Fame; this is why he still matters: sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba… #CanBall

Truly bizarre LeBron James stats in this series: He's missed 17-of-22 attempts from 5-14 ft, but made 47.6% from 15-19 ft

"I said....Set it off to my

Highest ppg in elimination gms 1 LBJ 31.5 ahead of Jordan 31.3, Wilt 31.3, Iverson 29.8 and Jerry West 29.3 #doordie #nbafinals

MT: @NBAGuru Two more records in sight for Green: needs 4 3s to set Playoff record for 3s in series; needs 6 to set season Playoff record

Through seven innings, Matt Harvey has struck out 13 and allowed just one hit, an infield dribbler in which nobody covered first base.

Like these #nbafinals 2 previous occasion in 2-3-2 format first 5 gms have had alternating wins...on those occasions trend ended in gm 6

#Raptors Liston on Raptors: Building it right ow.ly/m9MA5 via @sportsnet

I like advanced statistics, and I don't hate hockey. But hockey's advanced statistics need less insane names. Objectively.

Remember that one day when nobody on the internet got outraged about anything?

In the 2-3-2 format teams leading 3-2 have won #nbafinals 82.4% of time (14-3). Overall teams leading #nbafinals 3-2 win 83.3% (35-7)

Between Hollins, Karl and Doc, this has already been a weird-ass summer for coaches.

I love how a team that was willing to trade its coach is also one of the few teams that wants their coach back. This is so backwards.

I am waiting to read the perfect pun about Keith Hornsby AKA the son of Bruce.

As pointed out by @vaswani_, my main conclusion about the Jays' hot streak is that pitching is important. #ANALYTICS
