    That is certainly the case, but I’m pretty sure the raps would win, they playoff disciplined playoff basketball and defense

    Problem is Harden stopped pushing the ball last year, we went from top 3 team in FB points to 2nd from last

    They take 2 seconds to bring it across court instead of 10, they also don't need a 6'5 pf to risk his entire life to grab every rebound. They have a deep team, with a better superstar, better bench, basically better everything.

    God why did Morey fail us so badly

    No walking up the floor, playing not to lose with a lead. Everyone getting touches. Beautiful.

    Thank you. The Raptors have the type of team that matches up well with the Warriors. They have the long, athletic defenders you need with enough offensive firepower. LeBron’s Cavs were only good offensively, which is why they got destroyed by Golden State more often than not. The Raptors are good on both ends and have the defenders needed to compete with the Warriors.

    Danny Green also came alive. He shot horribly in the previous series.

    Looking at the Raptors now makes me realize there are just some players who choke in the playoffs. I mean look at Lowry about to be carried to his first ring. Cp3 and Harden must be so envious lol.

    If the Rox want to win they need to make a team that doesnt depend on Harden or Cp3 because these 2 will choke guaranteed just like how Raptors are winning because they have Kawhi, Gasol and Siakam.

    LOL they let Klay handle the ball, and Klay immediately turns the ball over and gets called for a technical.

    "All-NBA 3rd team," amirite?

    Nice to see a team with length at the forward spots who can play on both ends of the court and a center who can score.....I HOPE DARYL MOREY IS WATCHING!

    The ball movement by the Raptors on the last possession was a thing of beauty.

    And how is Golden State allowed to mug the Raptors that entire possession?
