When Kawhi passes out of the triple teams, the player who gets it has to attack immediately. Holding it is causing problems

A healthy Kawhi, Durant, and James are easily better players.


Disagree. Curry makes everyone seem like a great player because he sucks all defenders too him. It’s pregame shoot around with him on your team.


i agree with you. curry is the best player overall in the nba. people just dont seem to appreaciate him because he is not a forward like others and maybe they think curry is a one dimensional player, not an all around player.

Media and refs so shamelessly biased towards Golden State it’s actually comical. Warriors down by 8 and all the coverage acting as though they are winning by 20...lol!

Yes, that has been needed for years. At least this series doesn’t involve a team he hates, like the Bucks or Celtics. Even when it doesn’t he exerts himself into the game and tends to be bad overall.

I’ve said this last game, he’s a disgusting player to watch who will never be a star in this league


I say good chap, Kyle Lowry is a cancer upon this league /KG

seriously tho Lowry is a GOAT tier flopper, he's up there with Vlade / Manu / Harden in the # of absurd fouls he can manufacture.
Rest in peace Kobe & Gianna

Raptors should be up way more than eight points. This is exactly like game two. Let's see if they can withstand the third quarter Warriors push.

The biggest 1 on 5 offensive showing I've seen in a long time.


You missed Kawhi literally willing the Raps to victory when the benched scored 22points in 4 combined games


Yeah no I didn't.

It doesn't even compare to tonight's 1st half.

Disgusting display by the refs. Draymond in the restricted area. The BS 3rd foul on Lowry. The no-call which was more egregious at the end of the half that Nurse blew up over.

Awful.

Siakim should work on his three point shot in the offseason.

:roll:

The Sixers played them virtually even, they have every right to be upset about not being in the finals. The Bucks would beat this Warrior team and were 1 round away from the finals.....

You Toronto posters are so sensitive right now.


So weird to claim that the bucks would beat the warriors, when they couldn’t beat the raptors.


When you’re speaking in hypotheticals, anything is possible!

Yeah, he is. I’m not a fan, but he’s an amazing player.

1-on-1 against set defense is still not his game, but he does possess the most lethal weapon on the earth - a 3pt shot.

Toronto need to have a guy glued to him, and iso him on the other end to wear him down.

I know you are not all the same, but this board becomes unbearable whenever Raptors are playing. There are a TON of raptors fans like this, and I would say they represent the majority here.

If you don't want to be be put in the same boat with them, call them out, or post something objective. The last 5 pages are filled with raptors fans whining about calls, when there were bad calls both ways. Maybe the good raptors fans should post more often


Well when you make posts like their your just asking for people to jump on you because you are generalizing wether you mean to or not. As for the calls about the refs there has been just as many gsw fans bitching about them.


Yes, there are warriors fans whining about refs too, but I think it's because of the number of posts. There were some Warriors fans who were making objective comments, while I couldn't find anything from the good raptors fans. At least that's how I see it as a neutral fan.

As a Toronto fan I don’t see him often, but every time I do I’m amazed. I think Durant (etc) are better players, but curry will always have the better, more winning, team. So I guess it’s in the definition, but imo if best player is the one that makes your team win most, it’s curry.

I always thought Scott Foster was the worst ref in the NBA... but Marc Davis is on a whole other level of bad, sheesh.
