I don't see Miami winning a Game 7 so we know the series is already over, the only question is will Toronto close them out tonight?

I don't know what the records say, but off the top of my head, winning Game 6 on the road is fairly uncommon in the conference semis. It seems the home team usually wins Game 6 at this stage of the playoffs.

you realize that there is a player named D Wade that plays for the Heat. he can kind of take over games like few in the NBA can

You said it. In Toronto, anything can happen. Heat have played us tough in Toronto. What if he drops a buzzer beater in a Game 7? That would be horrible.

Turning into a fan of Thompson hope he gets more burn. One play stood out was when Ross was moving in and leaving a guy wide open at the 3 line. Thompson shoves Ross to the guy.

We've played the best defense out of any of the teams remaining the playoffs. Our defense is whats gonna take us to the ECF.

If you cant credit casey for anything else, at least credit casey for that

Thompson plays a gritty game. Lots of contact, reach in's and shoves to the opposition that i like.

Another thing ive also noticed is that he's emotionally charged up as soon as he hits the court. It doesnt take a couple of min to get emotionally involved. Dudes comes out throwin punches underneath the basket

They will wait for the NBA to release their 2 min report, because you never know the NBA might want to replay a game.

I must say, watching D-Wade in this series has made me realize how underrated he's become. I know he's largely considered an all-time great, but the narrative was that he was semi-washed up. Lebron should have stayed in Miami.

I've seen so many people wandering the streets of downtown London in Raptors gear today. Super cool and it's getting me even more excited for the game, which I didn't think was possible. Six more hours!
