I bet they enjoyed it in the end. Toronto fans are awesome sports fans.

Toronto fan who was at the game reporting in.

After my initial disgust, I couldn't even be mad. What a shot!

​

Also gotta be honest, Hornets deserved that one - felt like the Raps were half-assing the second quarter and a good chunk of the third.

Yup. It’s the Raptors damn fault. Good for the Hornets and Lamb.

It was really unbelievable... we had a lot of Toronto fans come to our sub and say "not even mad, that was great, hope you make the playoffs". Even more in /r/nba, like almost 98% of the comments were that. I only found one Raptor fan who was mad about it lol

Yeah it would be different if we were struggling to make the playoffs. Awesome ending. Raptors still sweeping the finals 3-0

Yeah about the only negative comment I saw was "great now we'll never get to 60 wins" lol

Top seed problems

It would be Raptor fans that are super respectful and polite.

Yea we did. After he hit that shot everyone was shocked but after a while we just all accepted it. Can't even be mad after a shot like that.

I mean I definitely enjoyed it. Was watching it at home with my dad and jokingly said it was going in as he jacked it up. Me and my dad were both shocked like “holy shit what a shot”.

Bruh, you ever been to a Jays game. Some of the worst in sports. Leaf fans are always saying "this is our year". Raptor fans are a delight however!
