Winning their first NBA Finals since being established as a franchise in 1995, you better believe the people of Toronto are overcome with emotion after experiencing this one-in-a-lifetime moment.

What Drake most emphasizes is that there was nothing lucky about this. The entire city and the Raptors organization worked to be where they are and managed to do so with love and compassion over anything else.
These types of stories couldn't have been written any better. Kyle Lowry finally got a ring after seven years with the organization; Kawhi Leonard earned his second Finals MVP at 27 years old; and Marc Gasol joined his brother Pau as the only siblings to become NBA Champions.

Now that the Raptors have finally taken care of business, Toronto fans can only hope that Drake drops a new song to commemorate this moment in the city's history.
