    Not surprised. I figured Giannis would struggle against an elite defender. His offensive game is rather limited and predicated on his athleticism. This is huge for Toronto. I wonder if Leonard stays?

    Golden State in 6

    Giannis needs to get a jump shot but never will

    I may have to revise my position on rooting for the Warriors if the Rockets can't beat them. Raptors and the fans are feisty and that is fun to watch.. Drake is fun to watch cheer for his team

    I'm still rooting for a GSW sweep though.

    Difference between Kawhi and Harden is very very obvious, one plays with heart, the other doesn’t.

    Kawhi is the new Lebron in the East. They will still be underdog against Warriors but you will always have a chance with those guys.

    Same here. I root for Lowry and I hope Kawhi stay in the east. It's amazing Raptors went from choke city to clutch city just by swapping Derozan to Leonard. Congrats!

    It's not just that he needs a jump shot, he literally can't dribble properly. Most of the time he just forces his way to the paint. It's rather predictable.... hence why a great defender like Leonard was clamping him up most games.

    Raptors take inefficient midrange shots and the Bucks play like the Rockets.

    Lowry played his best, played with heart... He was the one attacking when Raptors couldn't score and he hustled for quite a lot of loose balls. Leonard was huge securing the final rebound. Vanvleet and Powell were huge leading the comeback and Marc Gasol hit the most important 3 again. Siakam and Ibaka's defense on Giannis is simply incredible. Congrats Raptors, well deserved and hope they put up a battle against the Warriors

    Pay no mind to
    Lowry > cp3
    Siakem > Capela
    VanFleet> our bench
    And
    Golden State > Milwaukee

    But yea...let's **** ON HARDEN.
