    Toronto trying every chance they can to lose this game in the first half.

    This is shocking their lack of composure.

    Warriors playing like tonight might be the end of a dynasty. Rightfully so.

    Raptors aren't doing anything different, it's just much improved defense from the Warriors. Warriors only had 23 in the 1st Q, and 43 with 3 minutes left to half. Warriors defense has just been tremendous. Crowd is insane too.

    There are a lot of things I dislike about the Warriors, but their ability to bring hustle and rebounding as though they are the least talented team in the league is something they have always done well. Teams this talented in the past have not shared that trait.

    Toronto, as bad as they've shot, is only down by 4. That's so good for them, to be honest.

    He won't make extraordinarily bad decisions like Gerald Green nor shrink in the limelight like House. And when he's on he's way hotter as a shooter than either, and more reliable overall.

    This. Turns out Klay and Looney matter.

    The problem is Toronto tends to stay cold from this point on, where as the next half is when Curry usually goes off.

    The 3rd quarter uppercut is coming. Hope the Raptors are ready.

    No ****? Some people on this board told me it's just about Curry, everything else is minor.

    What the dubs offense is showing is how when a great scorer move off ball it absolutely ruins the defense and creates space for others. Imagine harden coming off screens off ball. Damn deadly. Unfortunately ****er is too lazy

    Looney is playing with a broken collar bone. That is "looney!" I have never seen that before.

    Yep. When I pointed out the Dubs being favored in Game 3 despite missing Klay and Looney was nuts, at least two people told me Looney didn't matter. You'd think a team a fan base that loves Tucker would have more appreciation for the guys who do the little things that help win games.

    I still think the Raptors are going to end the GS dynasty tonight and go up 3-1.

    He ran off the ball twice as much in game 3! That was a great win for the Warriors.

    Bogut with a 2 handed shove on Siakim, as blatant as you like and that's just fine apparently

    Draymond doesn't get a tech for getting in the ref's face. What else is new.

    Bogut doesn't get a foul for obviously pushing Siakam to the floor. What else is new.
