we really don't give a damn about your personal congratulations.. like who are you? you're a random on this forum just like everyone else :lol:

Yep I’m a random on this forum that’s gonna enjoy the tears after this series.. just that I said congratulating the actual “Raptors”. You don’t get paid for following them or being butthurt over the internet, probably just a lil kid on the internet with RealGM fingers. Bye

It’s bananas. Like raptor fans forget that the bucks were up 2-0 and a team can come back. It’s one game. And it’s the golden state warriors. Wait till the last second of the fourth win up by 20... then I’ll believe.

And sorry, but the lesson that should have been learned tonight is that the Raptors are too good a defensive team to try to beat them just with two weapons. Godo defensive teams can zero in on those guys, trap them, chase them off spots. The Warriors either need KD back, or they need to rapidly ramp up Cousins. Steph, scoring 30 even, and Klay alone just aren't enough against a top defense zeroing in on them. Weren't even back in the day if you put away your 2019 goggles and remember those early Warriors teams and their bevy of secondary offensive weapons, from Harrison Barnes, to younger Iggy, to Speights and Lee and Barbossa etc.


Siakam will do that again. There's no physical freak like Embiid or Giannis to slow him down this series.

the Warriors
-have no answer for the Kawhi-Siakam duo
-feared Gasol on O, who scored 20
-gave open shots to opponent role players (on D)

Not really. Kawhi didn't really play well. It was Siakam, Gasol and Fred VanVleet that led the way for the Raptors. So you know Skip is going to go on a rant about how Kawhi was carried to this win. lol. It's going to be funny as hell.

funny that people are trying to discredit the Raptors win again....didn't learn anything from the Bucks series..

"Siakam won't play that well again" ....well ya and Kawhi won't shoot 5-14 again..each game is different.

Warriors are the cockiest team I’ve ever seen.

But they’ve dominated for a long time so I guess it’s warranted

WHO is saying this series is over? Raps fans can't be excited about wining a finals game?? The Warriors will come out much stronger next game and are still the favourites in the series

All the credit goes to the Warriors and their fans. They put up a hell of a fight in game one. We're just happy to be here, and looking forward to taking this one game at a time. It was a good win for us in game one but we're not satisfied. On to game two...
