Not with the defense they are playing.

Obvious troll is obvious but Warriors played great D and Lowry had an open 3. Nurse blew it with the TO

He still could. He helped them win tonight. Two more games man.


Dude shouldn't play if this is what he looked like after a month off.


I don't mean he's playing, I mean he helped them. They have two games to play. Who knows how this ends...

Sometimes the Warriors make 20 threes on you. Raptors didn't shoot it well enough and deserved to lose. Bet they win game 6 though.

Most people would obviously agree with you. If Kawhi were out, many of them might give the Dubs a shot, but Kawhi is playing great and KD is out. Looney is likely out. No excuses, just not enough players to pull this out. Congrats to the Raptors.

GS will win this series. Raps showed tonight they have not figured out the "crap were about to win a championship!" feeling.

They know deep down that they can't close out this championship.

If we had KD, I'd tend to agree. But he's done.

people tryna trash on a player whose carried his team to 5 straight finals is sad and pathetic. Esepcially when he's probably outplayed kawhi.

Come back? you had the lead the whole game except one point where it went to 6 for like 10 seconds...


Yeah, but being down 6 or so with under two minutes left takes some real work to overcome.

No one could every just double MJ like and force the ball out of his hands because he'd either split the double or find someone for an easy bucket

No it's because you can't soft double like that when your guy is on the other side of the restricted area. Iggy literally left Lowry all the way on the other side and zoned up over to Kawhi.

I don't blame Lowry for missing the shot. I blame Gasol for not doing jack **** to Draymond with any kind of screen. You know Lowry is open in the weakside because it's his guy doubling. How do you not stop to think to flare/hammer screen the weakside corner when you're European and have been playing against zones your entire life.

The Raptors deserve to lose solely on the basis of their classless fans for cheering Durant's injury.

This is the same fanbase that chanted f**k Brooklyn only to lose in 7 games to the same Brooklyn team.

This is coming from a Toronto native.

Only if we discount defence or what actually happened in the game.

Toronto could have ended this tonight if Kawhi had more than 1 strong minute in him.

The longer the series goes the tighter Toronto will get and the looser GS will get. Really poor by the Raps tonight.

They won 73 games before Durant even came.

Does that mean we get to play Barbosa, Speights and Barnes in game 6?

Iguodala was coming to double because Gasol and I believe Powell got tangled up underneath the basket. Kawhi made the right basketball play. The issue was the play that they ran.
