Raptors gotta make it tough for the Splash Bros but really gotta emphasize on limiting the Warriors role players in scoring, even if the Splash Bros go for 30 each, the rest of the team would still need atleast 40 to beat them...The Raps cannot let that happen.

Expect GS to come out hard. They are the champs for a reason. And of course the raps board is overconfident which is usually the kiss of death

Toronto favored again in game 2.
Durant is most likely going to miss the series.
An overwhelming majority of Realgmers now pick Toronto to win the title.
Yet still the underdog Warriors are hated. It seems that the anti-Durant crowd do not actually hate Durant. They just hate that Durant made the Warriors nearly unbeatable. They still hate the Warriors because Curry and others win too much and do too much damage to the legacy of he who shall not be named.

Defensive gap is way too big. Dirk would be in 2nd tier though

KG lacks offense and Dirk lacks defense, I would put them in the 2nd tier. These guys are just on another tier on offense than KG and another tier on defense than Dirk.

KG still had one of the GOAT seasons in NBA history that year. It's absolutely one of the all time peak seasons.HBK_Kliq_33 wrote:[code][/code]VinBaker6 wrote:HBK_Kliq_33 wrote:The 2000's mount rushmore of playoff peaks:
