Brooklyn vs Toronto "Headline War" is on! PHOTOS:


Here's the emphatic sports headline of the New York Post. It says: F#@K YEAH! It was the Post's reaction after Toronto Raptors GM Masai Ujiri yelled "F#@k Brooklyn" during a Raptors pep rally before Game 1. Watch: 


It was also the New York Post's counter-attack after the Toronto Sun ran this actual sports headline before Game 1:


I asked Duane Watson of TSN/SLAM if this was an actual headline. Duane, who lives in Toronto, said it was. He also said that the headline could've been the Toronto's Sun reaction to the notion that Brooklyn "tanked"( or if I could borrow Jeff Van Gundy's term -- "micro-tanked" ) so they would face Toronto in the first round. An eye for an eye, a headline for a headline. Can't wait to see what the Post and the Sun will think of next. MH

The Masai Ujiri Story - A Long Way Home. VIDEO:


Need one reason to cheer for the Toronto Raptors? Try DeMar DeRozan. Or Kyle Lowry. Or try cheering for them because they went from a team that was supposed to tank to a team that's headed to the playoffs as the third seed. Or maybe you'll cheer for them after watching the inspiring story of their highly-admired GM Masai Ujiri. If you admired Ujiri for the player moves he has made with Toronto, you'll admire him even more after watching his story in this TSN feature - A Long Way Home by TSN's @bruce_arthur. MH
