The Toronto Raptors: Most Pathetic Sports Team in History?

OP, you should read about Cruz Azul:

They've reached the finals quite a few times since then, but they never win. It's been a curse for them. The eternal 2nd place.
Peyton Manning should have had more than 1 Super Bowl with the Colts based on the number of MVPs he won and the monster stats he put up in about a 12 year playoff run.
I know he won another with Denver but that was because of Denver's defense.

What?
It's a pro sports team not a national team.
They don't represent Canada nor are they even Canadian.

They're the only Canadian basketball team in the league. Go onto their Facebook page right now and it's filled with other NBA fans shitting on Canada as a whole. Wether they like it or not the raps are seen as Canada's team and if they suck it reflects badly on the whole country
That's because the East is a garbage conference.
The freaking Celtics are going to be in the Conference Final without Kyrie or Hayward, that's pathetic, lol.

I stated in the op that I was talking in terms of blown success. Of course the browns are absolute trash but everyone expects them to be. They don't consistently choke away chances time after time because they have no chance to begin with
The dude that had to combine his efforts with Curry and others to win over Lebron?

Sorry, but until the Raptors move to a US city, they're Canada's problem.
LeBron wouldn't know anything about teaming up with other superstars
I see some of ya'll never miss an opportunity to do your best Skip Bayless impressions, hating on LeBron even when there is nothing to hate on.
Look at that bitch eating those crackers.

The Raptors need one playbook for the regular season, and a totally different set of plays when playing Lebron in the playoffs, and probably even a different set of plays for each Lebron playoff game. He is way too familiar with everything Toronto does. I don't think the present coaching staff is smart enough for that though. It's not just that Lebron is a skilled player, he is clearly extremely well-prepared for these games. The Raptors become very exposed when an intelligent opponent prepares to play them. This has been true for the entire Casey era. I don't think the Raptors should blow it up, but new coaches are required. Someone clever and unpredictable please.
It's nice LeBron can beat up on the kiddie pool of the NBA ... errr ... the Eastern Conference, but the West has no problem sending him home.
Is this the Toronto Raptors hardship thread or the LeBron trolling thread? I can't tell anymore. Nobody gives a shit about your Warriors posts and they have nothing to do with this conversation.
Maybe we need help from some mods to clean this shit-posting up?

While they will never be the worst on these list. I would nominate the 1990-2005 Atlanta Braves as being one of the biggest underachievers in professional sports history. During This tenure the Braves won their division every year for 14 seasons (except the 1994 season was cancelled due to a strike). This is also a MLB record for most consecutive division titles won by a team. During most of this run the Braves had what is considered to be the greatest starting rotation in baseball history anchored by 3 future hall of fame pitchers (Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz) and a 4th starter who was usually good enough to be a #1 or #2 starter on any other team (Denny Neagle/Kevin Millwood). Maddux/Glavine/Smoltz won 6 Cy Young awards during these years as the best pitcher in the National League. Despite this overwhelming pitching talent, the Braves only won a single World Series (1995) while losing titles in 1991, 1992, 1996 and 1999.
At least you guys got one. Off my boys, no less. My Indians squads were the stuff of legend those years.
Nah, Jazz only got 2 shakes at MJ and that was in the finals. MJ was kryptonite for the entire western conference. A more apt comparison would be the Knicks who only got over once MJ left basketball.
Sharks are pretty good at getting everyone's hopes up here in SJ then choking spectacularly every year
Nobody is going to offer you anything.
Junk GM who overpaid the players and made bad decisions. Glad he's your problem now as the Denver Nuggets are on the up and up.
