    also needs to cut on turnovers and stop fishing for the fouls instead of trying to score

    Kawhi Choked. Disappeared in the 4th. Too much Iso. Didn't take over when it mattered most. Turned the ball over. Leave the Refs alone. Needs to move more. Any other superstar would've dominated. That style will never win a chip. Blah, Blah....

    You know how many huge pressure games Kawhi won in his career?

    Agreed with this. In the first quarter, they looked like the Rockets, with all the 3s they were jacking up.

    Especially in the first half. Might have got a phone call at half time to make it less obvious.

    Leave the refs alone. Can't beg for callls, that's a gimmick. Just play.

    Warriors just beat them, straight up.

    Can't just sit there and say "just play." Aside from Kawhi, they're all human. Hell, even Kawhi was getting frustrated at all the calls the Warriors were getting, on ticky-tack stuff.

    Warriors were allowed to stay in the game solely due to all the fouls, which led to not only free points, but also took some of Toronto's starters out early. Hard to get into a rhythm or play defense, knowing the next minor action you take might result in a whistle.

    He was a finals mvp. And don’t bring up Tim Duncan. He was no longer a dominant player at that time.

    Kawhi Leonard's Left Knee Injury Stems From Overcompensating For Right Quad

    Kawhi Leonard has been battling a sore left knee since early in the Eastern Conference Finals.

    Leonard is visibly favoring the knee while running.

    Sources tell Sam Amick and Joe Vardon of The Athletic that Leonard's knee issue comes from overcompensating for his injured right quad. Leonard missed nearly the entire 17-18 season with the San Antonio Spurs due to the quad injury.

    The right quad, however, is fine currently.

    “I don’t think the leg trouble is much of an issue,” said Nick Nurse after Toronto's Game 2 loss to the Warriors.

    Oh and don’t forget the walk off against the sixers and his series against the bucks. Doesn’t that all sound like big games to you?

    Warriors stayed in the game cos Raptors couldn't make shots. They had good looks and failed to convert.
