2019 Finals - Golden State vs Raptors

[TranaGreg]

I'll bet that he does start but turns out to be a defensive liability with his limited mobility, and ends up sitting most of the game.

I'm not gonna make a prediction. I'm too petrified. In a good way of course.

I will say that altho we have to win one game out of three, if we don't win tonight it goes to a game 6 back at Oracle, then potentially a game 7 with Durant having had more time to get healthy ... makes me feel like tonight is a must win, crazy as that sounds. The good news (for Raptor fans) is that this team has shown a strong killer instinct.

I'll be watching with my eyes partly covered ...

I think that's silly to call this "must-win" up 3-1, but I agree with B-Fly that they'll win tonight anyway. Amazing that they were 3-1 dogs going in.

yeah, I know, my brain tells me that it silly as well ...

They easily could've won last night if not for atrocious 3-point shooting. With no KD, I'm still fairly sure they'll win one of the next two.

Yeah, I think so too.

Last night's game was tough to watch. That 4th quarter reminded me of one of those old Rocky movies where two boxers are standing toe to toe trying to knock each other out but just didn't have anything left ... both sides weren't really running set plays, at least not consistently, it was just a few guys trying to make a shot ... that certainly opened things up for Kawhi to have an awesome couple of minutes, but nobody could sustain anything.

It's a war of attrition. Sounds like Looney is questionable (he's saying he's fine but I dunno about that). I don't know how he stayed in there yesterday.

I'll admit it, I cried when we won!!!

Flags fly forever!

What an awesome game, but so disappointing that Klay went down. Congrats!!

[B-Fly]

Congratulations, Art and TG. Has to be a great feeling after all those disappointing playoff runs over the past several years. I'm really impressed with Toronto as a team. Hopefully they can keep Kawhi (unless he wants to play in Brooklyn, in which case screw y'all ).

Yes, seeing Klay suffer a serious injury on the heels of the KD thing is depressing, though.

[Judge Jude]

the Warriors have been on the lucky end of playoff injuries as well, but their fans seem to have amnesia.

True that, including notably the injury to Kawhi Leonard a few years back at the hands of the Warriors' Zaza Pachulia, which led the league to start calling all those fouls on defenders who end up in the landing space of three point shooters, plus Chris Paul last year, Kevin Love (twice?), Kyrie Irving, etc.

Congrats to our Canadian fans and all fans of the Raptors...well done!

[TranaGreg]

Thanks guys ... parade day here, already tons of people streaming towards the parade route ... should be a fun day.

This is one of my favourite shots from the weekend ...

[TranaGreg]

One of many great shots from today ... this is from one of the not-so-crowded sections ...

there's not much work getting done in Toronto today ...
