Good for you sticking with your original pick. I see the polls in these threads vary so much game to game.

Raps in 6 for me. Quote me on it!

Can you imagine if the Raptors win the next game and close it out at home for the championship? Can script it better than that. What a time to be alive.

You’re right. Guys that miss a game in the Finals because of an injury, always come back 100% healthy 48 hours later.

Pretty much this. Also hamstring pulls have a high rate of re-injury. Not looking great for them.

According to google Nav Bhatia is a car dealer, now it all makes sense. this superfan schtick is like free advertising. I bet he even writes the tickets off his taxes 8-)

Klay wanted to play tonight so he'll be happy to go. I don't think they'll even dare to ask KD to play, he'll tell them when he's ready

All I know now is Gsw will score 109 in game 4. Raps needs more than that to win.

Can I just say how quiet the warriors crowd was tonight

Sixers by far had the crowd raptors played then bucks

Oracle felt like a regular season game. Raptors have no problems on road

He buys like 30 tickets a game and donates them to kids.

Not sure if he writes that off his taxes though.

They were in control. But we can expect a better effort, especially on defense, from the Warriors come Game 5.

Toronto did what they had to do. We now have an even series.


2-1...


Not the betting odds ;)

Best time to load up on the Warriors! i think the price is near even so there's that... (Line opened to something like 1.3 for the Warriors, meaning bet $100 win $30...) So...
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

Amazed that the fans left sort of early. Especially with Steph on their team!

it may be hard to comprehend but for most teams their fans are actually real. Did you hear the lets go raptors chants in the oracle tonight? Maybe it was aided by some of the bandwagoners as well as us pesky canadians
