    Warriors shot 47% from 3, Toronto shot 25%. Gap wont be that big in game 6, Toronto is taking it easy.

    Wow, I thought the Raptors were about to close the door when Kawhi got on fire, but no dice. You know what though? I'm excited for a game 6! It's a good series!

    Raptors went into prevent defense, got burned, they thought they had it way too early and didn’t keep playing their game

    The Raptors beat the Warriors pretty handily during the regular season, they're a perfect match for the Warriors. I think Houston is a tougher match for Toronto. I tell people it's all about match ups not records.

    No matter how you slice is Nick Nurse is excellent. His game plans are amazing. They way he's utilized all of his players is what I like to see from a coach.

    I don't mind a title in Toronto, I love their coach. (still hate Drake though)

    Nurse lost this game by taking a timeout up 6 with the ball with 3 minutes left and all the momentum

    Would Kobe have given up the ball with 15 seconds left?

    They trapped Kawhi pretty hard there and I think he was expecting the pass back but FVV went to Lowry in the corner.

    That was a very strange timeout. Killed that momentum.

    Then he decides to NOT call one once he sees his team unable to make a decision with like 12 seconds left.

    Durant with an achilles tear is a real pitty...sucks to watch.

    With that said...this is the price you have to pay with one year contracts...it isn't likely that he gets a super max with his injury. At least not this coming season.

    He is also 31 and not getting any younger...so this injury might cost him in excess of 100 mio.

    I'm referring to the enormity of the moment, Kobe would taken that shot with 5 people on him, just to win the chip his way. I'm not a rabid Kobe fan and I would surely curse him if he missed but Kobe is Kobe and there is no one like him.

    They gave him a standing ovation when he went for the tunnel...
    I think their fans are great (as is most of the Canadians in general).
