Raptors fans are finally receiving the respect they deserve

The Toronto Raptors fans have been told for seasons that they are not good enough by their own media because they supposedly don't boo the refs calls or do not cheer loud enough when the opponents take a timeout. Finally they are eaten the sushi at the beginning of the third quarter which is why the Raps suck huge in the third quarter and that is ridiculous to say the least. The 2014 playoffs has taught everyone is that Raptors fans can simply match up with another crowd in the league with the 20 thousands inside the Air Canada Centre are loud and proud and revived up even before the game has started and boo the Nets and cheer the dinos. That does not include the thousands outside of the Air Canada Centre braving the elements to watch on the big screen even when the Raps are in the borrow of Brooklyn to the point that coming into tonight's 115-113 Raps victory, which had a nightmare fourth quarter as the Raps were up 26 at one point, the Nets organization tweet their fans to watch and take notes of the Raptor's fan before coming to the game on Friday. It is not only the Nets that has taken notice as the other organizations and more importantly for the Raptors players The US Networks (TNT and ESPN) have taken notice and it was motivation of the Raps game 4 victory in Brooklyn as the Raptors origination piped in the seen outside the Air Canada Centre before they stepped out and evened the series at two. We The North is now a victory away from breaking through to the second round Tom Mehegan
