All these smallball copycat teams trying desperately to be GS and be better are never going as good as GS .in it' s prime .They were special but Toronto is going to win. Toronto will win with Mark Gasol as the Center ,not exactly the blueprint to small ball dominance.

Hard to determine considering the type of messaging coming out of the Warriors.

I’m surprised Looneys back, thought they initially expected him to miss the series. excited for this game to start

Seriously...Looney? I'm sure Marc Gasol and Serge Ibaka curled up in a fetal position and started shaking when they heard Kevon **** Looney is coming back. What's the next crazy take? Alfonso McKinnie...the 18th man on the Raptors last season...is a huge part of the Warriors rotation?

Man...the way people overrate scrubs...

National Anthems before games are so weird... do they even do this in other countries?
