Difference was the GS run in the 3rd. That was kind of classic warriors stuff. Gonna be interesting to see how klays health is for the next game.

It was a bad pass man. He got bailed out on that play, poor read

What? Curry took on all the pressure they had and got it out. That was an outstanding play by him.

I guess the biggest concern now aside from KD's return is Klay

Always have been.

They're the easiest team to root for, because they're flawed, they're vulnerable, yet they always seem to find a way to win (well, except in 2016). And they're just fun to watch with the Splash Brothers and Draymond. I hope Durant leaves just to get that feeling again for good.

Kawhi bailed out by Siakam game 1


Raptors literally send 2 at Curry every single possession.

Kawhii needs to add some more ball skills. He doesn't really get much separation on his drives, and it showed in the final 4 minutes

The Warriors aren't going to need Durant to come back if this is the DeMarcus Cousins they're going to get the rest of the series.

From what i have seen every playoff thread during Raps games...Raps fans are the OG's when it comes to complaining. Literally every thread is fans saying everything is rigged...The lighting is rigged, fans are rigged, basketball is rigged pretty much everything is rigged. Me writing this is rigged.

But but but REFS REFS REFS helping the dubs. Blind ass Raptor fans



Refs literally gifted GS that game in the first half. Gtfo


If the Raps got those two points from Klay's goaltend, this game would be going to OT.

Raps got more than enough back on bad calls in the second half. To complain about one call is silly.

Pascal also got 2 fts on a drive but it wasn't on a shot.
FVV trips on his own foot off a fastbreak steal.
Kawhi gets stripped and gets 2 FTs plus a tech.

Bad calls hurt both teams.

Can't say the Raptors didn't have their chances, too many missed shots, could have had a stranglehold on the series oh well on to game 3

if you triple team a player he might never be the best player in a finals
