And now they count us out again.. saying Kawhi is going to LA, saying 76ers are the favorites in the east no matter what kawhi does, lakers as favorites to win the title. *Come on Kawhi, let's run it back and prove them all wrong AGAIN.* #CHAMPIONS

[@krisskrosssss]

Raptors still don't get the respect as champions. They don't even throw a single glance at us, and only talk about the Raptors to discuss whether or not Kawhi is staying or not. We're not just any team, we're revolutionary. The Toronto Raptors is the start of an international expansion of the NBA. We just need to drill it in their heads one more time that we're the best. #HeStay

No matter what happens with Kawhi, if he stays or goes to LA it was one hell of a season. From what we accomplished as a team, an organization and as a nation. We came together and supported this team in a quest for history and it was a beautiful thing to watch. So proud to be Canadian and a fan of the Raptors. After all the seasons of struggling we finally did it. US media whatever you say, you can't take this away from us. WE THE CHAMPS ❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🥂🥂 #kawhistaythough #happycanadaday

[@mr.t-rex3113]

No words can’t explain how much the raptors, this organisation and team deserve to be called: Champions. Raptors were always the underrated team in the NBA, in the days where we were the worst. But as years pasted, we started winning. Through many struggles just to get here. It’s been a long ride and now we are at the Very Top!!! As a fan, I can say I’m so proud to witness Raptors History! What can I say? It’s been a long journey but it was worth seeing it all make it up as NBA Champions! We’ll always continue to support and cheer for the Toronto Raptors! Lastly, Thank you for making Open Gym! This series have become apart of my life and I never missed a single episode! Here’s to more OG! 🇨🇦💯🏀 #WEtheNorth #NBAChampions #RaptorsForLife

[@srimmingtonify]

45:00. "This is a team that should be celebrated in the NBA for a while, but by the Raptors fans forever. No matter what happens with Kawhi, what happened with this team... which was a bunch of misfits, nobodies, guys left on the side of the road. Stars emerged. Coaches from the G-League. It's a really remarkable collection of guys. They were counted out a couple of times in these playoffs. Always delivered And this will be a transformative moment for basketball in Canada It will be remembered forever. It doesn't even really matter what happens in the next few years. Doesn't matter if it's a one and done... This will be the "Spirit of '19". Raptors 2019 will be remembered as one of the greatest things that has ever happened in Canadian sports."

I’m not crying, you’re crying. So glad Gasol, Ibaka and Lowry got a ring, especially. Respect and appreciation to Kawhi, hope it goes well in LA. 👊 Toronto wouldn’t have won without him, and he wouldn’t have won without the 59-win team that was here when he arrived.

[@TheODLawson23]

It's the 58 win record, not 59. You mean DeMar DeRozan had won with the 59 win team in 2017-2018.
