Kawhi kinda killed us at the end there.

Kawhis forcing the issue but Raptors don’t win if he doesn’t get going.

Awful.


Missed goaltending, the Cook foul that Curry drilled a three on was ridiculous. Not saying necessarily that Lowry should have been called for one but it could have went against him.

Lowry's 3rd was on him he tried to ram the guy setting the screen and bodied Steph. He created the contact that was made, how is that not a foul?


I think refs are just bad on both sides in general. But to comment on the 2 of the ones you have mentioned, yes there was the missed goaltending but literally the next play or 2 down the floor, they called charge on Leonard instead of an and1 foul on Draymond right? And the moving screen with Cook, Danny Green got his 3rd foul on a even lesser play when Curry flopped on his screen right?

The cook foul was on him he ran full speed at Lowry to cut block him and fell over, that's not a **** set screen that Lowry is hammering him on wtf...

Bruh, our city hasn't won a championship since '93. We're starving for one. Refs need to stop calling ticky tack fouls on us if they're not going to call them on the Dubs. Try to call the game fairly and let the chips fall where they may.

That’s kind of the point.

Biased fan posts a list of complaints but fails to mention the calls that his team got. 2 of the three he mentioned were 100% wrong calls, but it’s error by omission. The omission being all the calls he refused to see that went his teams way.

Dont let me ever hear this Kawhi is the best player in basketball stuff ever again


Exactly does anyone seriously think LeBron or KD wouldn't have a better finals here if they were swapped in for Kawhi?


Not fair to talk about GS's injuries so much but fail to acknowledge that Kawhi is likely playing hurt. We don't have the luxury of sitting him out though.

The Raptors seem to play worse whenever they go to Kawhi for iso's, like they're not running any actual plays out there.

I agree they've been bad both ways but I responded to a poster that seemed to indicate it was only favoring Golden State which I feel is blatantly false. I won't argue anything you just said.

Matchups are a thing you know... it's not weird at all.

You new to sports?


Matchups don’t matter if you can’t get by the team in front of you. It’s not hard to understand.


And how is that relevant to a discussion of theoretical matchups?

Naw it's been bad and it's affected both teams. You don't want to see a reasonable raptor fan because it hurts your narrative that they are all like that.

Bad on both sides... But yet somehow Lowry, Gasol and green have 3 fouls and kawhi 2, while the only guy with 3 fouls on gsw is bogut...

Part of the issue is Kawhi isn't passing well
Part is spacing
Part is guys not attacking when they get it.
