Oh, the Toronto Raptors. Things were supposed to be different with Kawhi Leonard in town, and make no mistake, he had a fantastic showing in his last one out, but that didn’t prevent the Raptors from dropping Game 3 in a blowout loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.
It was a tough one to watch for Raptors fans, and the team is catching plenty of heat on social media for their performance. The latest to go off is Fox Sports analyst and personality Chris Broussard, who laid into the Raptors, Drake and Canada as a whole for being soft.
Seems a bit far-fetched to connect the Raptors to the rest of the country, we have to say! It doesn’t help when the Raptors continue to hit speed bumps in front of a national audience, but, you know, still. We’re talking about some very different things here.
The Raptors are down by just a game to the 76ers, so it’s not too late by any means to save face here. They’ll have to make some adjustments, though — and playing a hell of a lot harder is the first adjustment on Nick Nurse’s list.
