Fans left the Oracle a tad bit early there.

Come on, son.

I don’t see Warriors losing next game if Klay and Durant play. Klay will be hobbled though and Durant way out of rhythm, but it just seems like they find a way to hang around despite everything.

Sixers by far had the crowd raptors played then bucks

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

There was alot Toronto fans lol.

Probably cheaper to fly and watch a game an Oracle honestly. Them tickets in Toronto are nuts!

Realistically KD might be back game 6

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

Warriors losing w/o KD will be great for his LEGACY, his supporters will validate his superiority to Steph Curry. KD watching in the sidelines with a grin on his face, lol.

Just never know. My fear is that they suddenly show up out of the blue then win a few games straight. Ugh!

Tonight is the 13th 30-point game of the postseason for Kawhi Leonard, tied for 3rd-most in a single postseason over the last 10 years.

He only trails Kobe Bryant and LeBron James.

Klay will play but KD is ways away imo. Klay just makes the series competitive - Raps can still steal game 4.

How much further can Klay aggravate his injury?? Any recent examples?

Is that too late in the series to be throwing a guy out there who hasn't played for over a month? If Klay is still out yes obviously because you need the offensive firepower, but I don't know, seems like a tough decision.

RaptorsLife · Post #74 » by **RaptorsLife** » Thu Jun 6, 2019 4:13 am

Raptors were down 0-2 against bucks

Down 1-2 against Sixers

It’s good to be leading thus far

bakafool · Post #75 » by **bakafool** » Thu Jun 6, 2019 4:13 am

Is Curry shooting above his average in this series? Seems like it.

This is what I’m saying there’s literally almost no chance he gets one practice in tomorrow and gets thrown out to a finals game where both teams are blazing constantly up and down the court.

Most likely Scenario is he might be 60-70% by game 6 and could play. I think he’s out the entire series though.

We were definitely worse last year.

you guys played 4 vs 5 as well?

Honestly with JR and Love out there we might as well have. And we were 29th in DRTG during the season.

Leonard now with 648 playoff points and moves ahead of Dirk, Barkley, 2 Bird seasons, Kobe on the all time single season playoff points list. What a run wow.

If KD can play it’s out of Kerr’s hands, he’ll demand to play and Kerr will just have to adjust. Even just having him out there would be crushing for Raptors morale and a boost for GSW defense.
