[PD28]

YO SON, Shoutout to errrrrrrrrrrrrrbody in this thread. The Raps fans. Warriors fans. Raps haters. Warriors haters.

I LOVE YOU ALL!

Listen. Don’t count your baby raptors before they hatch, but let’s hope the raps do this.

The fans on realgm are annoying and oddly concerned with how others view them...but who hates Canada?

Said no one ever.

Fans deserve whatever comes their way. I am just sad we can make fun of them for the Atlantic division title banner anymore. Lol.

Yes, the Raptors will have to "Rise up" one more time. I believe in my Raptors!

To be fair, the fatigued narrative is dumb. He just missed shots, plus Toronto took away his space on most of his attempts.

[Raptors2k4]

Perfect storm of a team built to excel on the defensive end and a genius coach

We need to talk about this Raptors team being one of the best defensive playoff teams.

The swarming, switching is unreal.

If the Raptors go on to win this series and Kawhi wins MVP, I think you gotta put Kawhi ahead of KD in those meaningless Top 5 player in the league arguments.

He'll have 2 Finals MVPs without the luxury of playing next to 2 other elite All-NBA players. He's proven he can be the #1 scoring option on a team and be an efficient 27 ppg scorer. Plus he's better defensively.

If I were one of the teams in the FA sweepstakes this summer, I think I'd rather target Kawhi over KD.

Curry doesn't have the shooters around him to have the same comparison.

For once we are seeing the negatives of Curry’s frame work against him.

As we saw in 2016 series not over

Golden State is mentally and physically depleted with no consistent scorer (i.e., a scorer is more than a perimeter shooter). KD has been carrying a weak and entitled cast. Sometimes the Raptors have spurts of careless play, so they may give Golden State a 2nd win as a favor to the league and wrap it up in Oracle for game 6. King Kawhi the Sensational KLaw will lead the Raptors to 3 wins at Oracle (i.e., GSW will go 0-3 at home in the Finals). You know what time it is, folks! Long live King Kawhi and the Raptor Dynasty!

[Teal25]

Can we just give the Raptors credit? Serge, Kawhi, Lowry and Vanvleet have been playing amazing.

The worse thing about them winning is Drake and his future shenanigans.

[cjx]

Golden State always wilts against a good defense. The Raptors are the only team in the NBA with the discipline to play good defense. Long live King Kawhi, the Jurassic Wall of Defense and the Raptor Dynasty! Golden State has been overestimated because most of the league lacks the discipline and stamina to play good defense.

[OriginalRed]

Before the series:

Golden State: You've never played an offence like ours.

Toronto: You've never seen a defense like ours.

[Teal25]

He’s the most protected superstar in the nba. And maybe nba history. Dude is straight getting exposed out there. Can only win with a stacked team or with multiple injuries to the opposing team like 2015

If KD leaves and they max out Klay and Draymond its going to be much much tougher for the Warriors. Especially with Livingston retiring, Boogie likely leaving and Iggy getting old.

This is the point. You cant give max to players like Klay or Green if you want to win it all. If you give 2 max contracts to both you are done. Deep team must be priority.

They should trade Draymond in the off season for some bench pieces. I would keep the Splash bros together. Iggy should be traded as well.

i love how the warriors are fatigued when we went through 2 grueling series and they just swept the **** trailblazers... gtfoh with that trash.

We ran steph off the 3pt line all game and he was second guessing himself early seeing if we would fully commit to the contest and we just stayed in front of him, usually hell get to the midrange but we stopped that. This was the reason not **** fatigue stop with that **** narrative.

[SalamiNcheese]

Turns out the key to beating the Warriors is defense...all those trash defense Cavs teams had the wrong idea

KevIn Durant missing the series and Thompson being out for a game just might have something to do with it. Maybe, I’m not sure.

Definitely Kevin Durant but one could argue that this could of been a 4-0 sweep in which klay looked perfectly fine for 2.8 games. Game 2 reffing was so bad it made Our players have to change there defense which allowed huge 18-0 run and then we barely lost.

[SweetTouch]

I spoke with an OG American veteran and he is begging KD to come back

The warriors are about to put shame into America

He doesn’t trust curry, he wants KD back to stop this

They cannot let Canada win

Y’all defense playing curry the same way the Cavs do

Play him tough , give him no room, that’s how you treat players who don’t have the killer instinct
