2019 NBA Finals Thread #5: Golden State Warriors vs Toronto Raptors | TOR 2-1 GSW

[ItsMyPotPie]

If the rules, refs calling fouls, refs not calling fouls, missed shots etc cause so much troubles and frustrations, why do YOU even bother watching the games?

[Arp590]

This game is close because FT disparity and Warriors turnovers. Warriors have shot awful from 3. Minimally better than the Raptors.

Raptors should have shot 20+ free throws in the 1st half.

This one of them ugly grind it out games that your superstar steps up & takes over...

Interested to see in the 2nd half who steps up to the plate out of Steph, Kawhi or Klay

Siakim & Draymond playing good as well.

Uh you mean Lowry right?

[Hero]

Quit whining about the refs.

11 fouls to 5. At what point do Raptors fans acknowledge they are getting all the calls? Is there an honest Raptors fan here?

Are we looking at the same Siakam?

[heatwillbeback]

Now Raps fans trying to spin the officiating as good because they are getting all the calls. LOGIC!

Do you really think the officiating is worse than game 2 or 3? Or do you just want to **** on raps fans

Game 2 being bad is part of the raptors fans victim complex.

It was fine. This game has been fine as well.

Apparently on here refs are bad whenever the Raptors lose.

He's complained about the officiating with every single one of his posts today.

That’s not a huge gap. That said, refs have been fine overall and is certainly a better officiated game then 2 or 3

More than double is not a big gap?

If it was the reverse, people would be saying it’s rigged. I’d say the Raptors have out flopped the Warriors so far.

Lots of flopping all around.

[Mister Ze]

I wish I had Klay's shooting form - looks better than Ray Allen, Curry, Reggie Millers, etc

[WCCC]

Regardless of how this game ends I just don't think GS can beat the Raptors 3 more times without KD

Klay/Curry/Green with a mediocre supporting cast can beat any team in the league 3 out of 4 times. Curry is 0-5 from 3 and GSW is up.

[likemycurryhot]

Finals games are often pretty ugly. Pressure, refs lettin’ ‘em play, desperate defense. Not a recipe for offensive flow.

[My2CentsR]

2 of 17 and 2 of 13 on the 3s for both teams? Those are some crazy numbers. But it's all b/c of constant chasing on both ends. It's gonna be annoying when analysts start talking about how players were not stepping up to make their shots b/c they didn't want it enough in a "must win" game.

Siakam has played bad on offense. This seems like a typical 3rd quarter run for the Warriors with Steph and Klay hitting most of their shots in the 2nd half

For some reason this game, I can say I will be shocked if they go on a run. Ain’t no way Toronto’s defense going to let both of them go off at the same time & Steph ain’t got that lift on his deep ball tonight... So far

[Chanel Bomber]

Game 3 felt like a preseason game compared to this one. This is NBA Finals intensity.

The Warriors should play Curry on the ball more with Klay back in the line-up. Playing him off the ball and having him come off picks made sense in game 3 so the Raptors wouldn't trap him and expose the Warriors lack of shooting. But Klay's back. Run pick-and-roll with Curry and dare them to trap.

Kerr's a basketball genius but he's been a little slow in this series imo (overplaying Boogie is another example).

If you’re ridiculous homer sure. Like more of those Looney fouls on Lowry? Lots of contact there eh.

Best player on that team IMO

[LKN]

Klay/Curry/Green with a mediocre supporting cast can beat any team in the league 3 out of 4 times. Curry is 0-5 from 3 and GSW is up.

I guess we are going to find out.

[HoopsterJones]

Cousins should not start the second half if GSW wants to have a positive start to the third quarter.

refs are bad in every game for every team based on reading fan comments

[Dan Z]

Curry 0-5 from three. I wonder if the last game took anything out of him.
