I’ve said the samething many times , he stat pads, whether it’s warriors up by 20 and he hits some open 3s or drive in for open layups becuase defenders are basically giving up, or when Warriors are down too much and game is over no defenders are taking seriously anymore

KD has to try playing next game right? If it is indeed just a strain and they’re not withholding information

So it'll look better when fans go to basketball reference to defend this performance. Zero context, or facts will be shown there.

The refs have done some really questionable stuff here in this past 8 minutes. Smh. I do always say the refs spot the Warriors 10 points in Oracle. Lucky for Toronto they made enough shots cause shots are the only thing refs can’t take away.

It's ovaaaah. So KD is Warriors best player..Curry will probably get some **** for this game. Hope people finally put some respect on Durant because had he been healthy this series it would have been an epic...Instead of this sad shishow of a series i expected. Congrats Raps fans you guys completely demolished them. Only way a miracle comeback happens now is if KD comes. But i think he is enjoying every moment of this collapse.

It's possible that he's a bit beat from the last game.

Warriors are at home and there's days off between the games, I don't think it is tiredness, this isn't his first time in the playoffs. Just for arguments sake though, even if it is tiredness, this is what all star players deal with, so it isn't an exception for a player to still be expected to perform after a previous big game.


I agree. I'm just pointing out that the last game was a lot for Curry to carry. More so than many superstars (look at the rest of their roster in game 3).

I'll add that Klay was available and they could've played him.

The score is actually quite a bit closer than the game was. The Raptors have dominated the entire game... just shot poorly early

(modern era = when zone defense was legalized)


It's 3-1. Not 4-1.
Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way.

Re: Be honest, did you ever think that the Raptors would be up 3-1 against the Warriors prior to the season?

Nah. Even without Durant, warriors shoulda been up 3-1 If Steph n klay were healthy. Durant is a loser.
