The Toronto Raptors are one win away from an NBA Championship. Let’s say that one more time. ONE. WIN. AWAY.
While it’s always special for a team to go to the Finals, something feels a little extra special with the Raps. The only Canadian team, the first Finals appearance, the general feeling that they “started from the bottom now they’re here.”
Even American broadcasters are saying they haven’t seen this kind of fan support. It is pandemonium for Raptors Nation.
They took their business south of the border and flooded into Oracle Arena for Game 4 on Friday. They made their presence felt early and often, but at the end of the game it became abundantly clear how well they had traveled.
It wasn’t just in California that they were going crazy. A continent away, the streets of Toronto were filling with fans. They didn’t hold back their level of excitement.
Absolutely nuts. And they haven’t even won… yet.
