They're gonna be loud on the other side, so what? That shouldn't phase us at all, we need to go out there and play to our standard, and enjoy the moment.""

The Toronto Raptors are entering the NBA playoffs for the first time since the 2021-2022 season and under head coach Darko Rajakovic. Rajakovic believes the playoff atmosphere in Toronto is less intense than his experiences in Serbia, emphasizing that it should not distract the team. He encourages the players to focus on their performance and enjoy the moment. The team shares this mindset, with players like Brandon Ingram expressing confidence in handling playoff challenges. The Raptors' first playoff game is against the Cleveland Cavaliers this Saturday.
