The Toronto Raptors picked up their 19th win of the season with a victory over the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night and they did it in front of a packed house.
One person who was in attendance for quite possibly the most exciting game of the entire NBA season was Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Mike Babcock. With it being his night off, Babcock took in the action from his courtside seat and posed for photos with young fans who approached him throughout the night. However, he wasn’t rocking his traditional blue and white, as he swapped in his Leafs merchandise for some Raptors swag.
Following the Raptors’ victory, the Maple Leafs’ social media team responded to the tweet that included the photo of their head coach and decided to use one of his famous lines for the response.
It escalated from there as the Raptors’ social media team chimed in shortly after and responded by using some of Babcock’s other most famous lines he tends to drop when he’s got a few microphones in front of his face.
If you’re a Leafs fan, or just very familiar with Mike Babcock, you most likely read all of those tweets in your best Mike Babcock voice, and will even read the final one in the same voice.
One thing’s for sure, it was definitely a real good win tonight for the home team.
