Not the greatest game ever played but it was extremely hard fought and the better team won. Go Raptors!

Even the refs couldn't bring them to the finish line. Man if we didn't choke game 2, we could've had raps in 4 lmfao

This could’ve been a sweep tbh. Nuts.

Remember when this board was laughing n saying that the Raps would get swept or Gentleman's swept at best...just like they did with the Bucks.

That was rich.

Yeah would be interesting stat if it was true.

Maybe people can stop talking about Durant joining a "73 win team"... the warriors without Durant haven't been that team during any of his time on the team.

Kawhi : " I'm not here to play hero basketball"!

Cant blame klay hamstring he showed up

Jazz9 · Post #2450 » by **Jazz9** » Sat Jun 8, 2019 3:39 am

Can't believe how trading for Kawhi completely changed the franchise around in one freaking year
They went from getting clowned once again by LeBron to spanking the Warriors in the Finals
Crazy

Does Fred still get Finals MVP even if he misses the rest of the series?

THE BLAZERS AND ROCKETS ARE THR BIGGEST FRAUDS EVER

warriors without Durant is not even elite

But they won 1 without him right? againsta depleted Cavs team but but but but they still had LEBRON!! Warriors should have 1 ring total..2 max.

Well they don’t have Durant that’s a good excuse.

Yup. Injuries happen. That doesn't make this Raps win (and likely championship) tainted, or fraudulent, or any less impressive. Nor does it mean the Warriors were undoubtedly the best team in the league who only lost because of injury. But to say injuries weren't a factor is just being silly. Not that anyone will listen to me, the hot takes will flow like wine.

There's been significant injury in every finals since 2015. Insane.

Kendrick Perkins this after game 3, he said none of them were smiling on the way back to the locker room. They mean business

The Raptors were only outplayed in one quarter the whole series (3rd quarter in game 2).

What a win for Toronto. I predicted them The Raptors to win this series but am surprised they got two in Golden State and possibly the final game in Oracle Arena.

This is over 100. I have to lock it.
