Still think Raps got this.
Raul
“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”

Van Vleet hugging Curry off the ball. I wonder how the game changes if refs call him for that.

I swear GS gets so many open buckets by people overreacting to Curry & ignoring the other players.

Lowry playing well nearly every night. Really turned a corner.

Right, but who here actually thinks Golden State is playing well? Because they aren’t.

only the first two movies were good...


Tokyo drift was pretty decent aswell. But it went overboard after that..like FbI, mercenaries CIA and whatever the hell else got involved made the franchise into a mess.


yeah you're right. But after that there was only trash.
Three movies are always good. There are so many good examples: Bourne, Ocean's movies etc.

Lowry is a mirrored Harden.

The defensive flop god.

11 fouls to 5. At what point do Raptors fans acknowledge they are getting all the calls? Is there an honest Raptors fan here?

I’m happy to have a 4 point lead as bad as the Warriors have played.

GS's defense has been pretty bad again this game

Honestlt it’s unbelievable. Their offense hasn’t been flowing but they still missed like 10 wide open 3s with time to shoot

If I'm the Raptors, I'm feeling ok. They missed a zillion shots and are still only down 4. Game is right there for the taking.

I doubt they keep missing.

They are eviscerating the GS defense.


Eh they made alot of shots above their expected value in game 3. That was bound to cool down

Did they actually?


17/38 from 3.....i mean yeah. I think it was the best 3pt shooting performance ever in a finals game

theyre 2/17 so far
