Oh and Raptors fans kinda suck. They take their cue from Drake. I’m the worst of all the Raptors fans, but don’t blame Drake for that, I only take cues from your BHC mind tricks...

Great game. That Kawhi run of 12 straight in the 4th was epic. Raptors got the benefit of 3 horrible calls at the end but couldn’t close it out. I don’t think the Warriors have anything to feel confident about. They are out of gas. Yeah, great game for sure. I want a “moment”, to win the championship and thought I was gonna get it at the buzzer. But I guess I gotta wait a little longer. Amazing stretch by Kawhi in crunch time, but I don’t know why he took a long contested 3, when the game was tied with a minute left in the game and 13 seconds left on the shot clock. Great clutch plays by the Splash Brothers when it mattered the most... If you want to torture yourself ask why Nick Nurse called time out with a little over 2 minutes left after the bad backcourt call against Draymond Green. Raptors had the ball up by 6 after the Kawhi run and that possession could have been the dagger. He cooled Kawhi off, have the Warriors some rest and they reeled off 9 straight points after the Nurse TO. Rookie mistake

No excuse. Their immediate reaction was their true reaction. Kudos to Lowry for waving off all the cheering and showing g what sportsmanship is. Canadians otherwise at a loss

The only guy in the building who could stop Kawhi at the end of the game was Nick Nurse.
Durant did look good the time he was out there. Different series if he plays

Twitter take:
Kevin Durant went to GSW, won back-to-back championships, back-to-back Finals MVPs, and still people talked about whether he made the team worse/less fun. When it finally became clear the team actually needed him, he rushed himself back. And now he's hurt. Man. I'm just so mad.

If he has a long term injury, it could force him to opt in to his player option for next year and remain with the Warriors, from there who knows what happens. Teams looking to sign him as a FA probably won’t have the same salary cap situation by the time he’s available, and others could be in the game by that time as well.

If it indeed a torn achilles as reports are predicting (MRI is today), Durant will not play at all in 2019-20. He will certainly opt-in, collect his cheques and move into free agency in 2020. I am no fan of Durant but this is still sad....I hate to see any player go down like this.

Opt in back with the warriors at the all star break next season

Opt in back with the warriors at the all star break next season I’ve got a crazy hunch, that he will opt in (or out) well before the All-Star break.
