GS should still have an extra point. Can’t believe nobody on their bench has pointed it out.

Blame the reigning MVP.


Harden got mugged on every jumper against GSW though. :lol:

Great game so far best one yet..officiating has been good and both teams are fighting..But im positive Raps will come out on top. Kawhi has been pretty silent so far and they are still up by 3..Shows how great this team is.

It feels like raps are so much more composed and should be winning big but then warriors throw up garbage that goes in or get a foul on a jump shot.

who wakes up first? Curry or Kawhi?

i bet on Curry. This is playing like the game 6 game against houston. Klay had the hot touch and the supporting case was keeping the warriors in the game, and then curry exploded for 33 points in the second half.

And great refereeing too. They called it clean, and called it consistently.

This must be the game 6 where Golden State gets a foul on every three pointer Klay or Curry takes.

And don't talk to me about 'gravity'. Curry is passing up wide open floaters to defer to Kevon Looney.


Steph is literally pull 3 defenders every possession...not 2...THREE.

If there is one bad thing that can kill the Raptors is their shot selection at times. That last playtime end half was weird.The Warriors are at least better in shot selection

With only Klay, who delievers, GS has no chance to tie the series. The other players have to step up and aren't allow to sleep.

Warriors have 10 turnovers and Raptors are shooting 50% from 3 with 9 makes. 3 point game. Have to be happy the game is within reach.

Amazing how many moving screens Green gets away with

I guess you gotta do them every possession knowing the refs won’t call it every time
