NFT: NBA Finals Game 6

.

They are 3-0 this year at Oracle.

If the Warriors win tonight, I like them in game 7...

But I hope Toronto ends it tonight. I love the way Kawhi plays this game. I want to see him sign somewhere else this summer... I'd like him in a kore exciting market like NY or LA.

without an insane amount of luck from beyond the arc in both directions.

They just don't have the horses to compete with Toronto. Toronto's frontcourt defense has stifled any interior scoring from Golden State, and Toronto's length has also done well defending the perimeter.

With Iggy and Livingston's ages, Looney's injury, and Cousins' lack of form, it is going to take a ridiculous effort from Curry and Klay to win.

Last game, Golden State shot incredibly well from 3 (20-42) whereas Toronto was abysmal (8-32), and yet Toronto still outscored Golden State by 5 in the 36 minutes Durant didn't play.

I would love to see Curry and Klay go off and this go back to Toronto, but I think the series ends tonight.

I thought they had it last game once Durant went out.

I think for GS to win, you need someone else to go off, COusins or Iggy, just someone has to step up.

I have a feeling Toronto wins handily tonight.

to beat Toronto without otherworldly performances from Curry/Thompson. Hoping the Warrior's role players play well enough at home tonight to at least push this to 7.

Go "we the north"

To the team in red. Some really really bad turnovers that aren’t even close.

Lauding McKinnie for earning his playing time as he gets beat off the dribble three straight times by three different players.

Dude belongs nowhere near the court.

a tough SOB. I have a ton of respect towards him for even being out there.

Was absolutely ridiculous.

If GS somehow pulls this series out, he’s my MVP. Even with Curry playing well too.

go away. Chucking up threes and Hail Mary shots all game, every game is boring IMO.

This is boring? This game has been absolutely fantastic. No team cuts and moves more than GS.

GS is now officially done. What a shame.

..

I always think that's what the Knicks wanted from Houston. And he did a good job considering he was mostly a jumpshooter - much improved 1-on-1 & on D over time. Tho Klay is the superstar version no doubt

Shit hope he's ok, that didn't look great

Crap.

..

I saw that shit happen to my knee. Watching that is really hard. Reminds when I saw Nurk's injury, every ounce of sweat shot out of my body at once. That was ugly

But Klay walking back is good to see!

Yeah, chucking up threes all game isn’t exciting to me. It’s cool if that’s what you like.

but talk about a tainted title for Toronto. They'll take it any way they can get it, obviously, but wow

still be an ACL. You can often run afterwards, you can't cut.

But, he didn't look too bad jogging back

Kerr have someone at the scorers table to get Klay out if he made the 2nd? Not doing that potentially cost them 2 points

has made some remarkably dumb plays in this game. He thinks he's a fucking guard sometimes. Pull the ball out

Can’t sub after free throws. It’s not like HS or college.

mugged Cousins there, should have been #5

in the nba there are no subs after a made free throw

Rule is different in the NBA

my bad.

What a disaster of a last 35 seconds for warriors. Green throws up a garbage 3, Curry makes a terrible pass. Lucky that last one didnt count

I dunno, to me it's not chucking if you're making them and while there are those teams who shouldn't be, GSW, esp the big 3, have every right

I love that it's forced the D's hand to guard pretty much to the half court line. Completely changed the game. They are doing it w/ efficiency as teams - even Harden's stepback (tho I don't love his game) if not Hou in general - it's mind-boggling and something we've never seen

It further highlights how good the Raps D has been. Well-timed & aggressive switching & trapping. And hasn't relented all series. IMO it's amazing to watch in terms of 40-50 years of adapting to the arc. To each his own of course

...her TV voice is like nails on a chalkboard

That's who I was referring to

Have nothing now. Cousins can’t score inside and Iggy won’t shoot like this al game.

Such a shame. Klay was the best player in the series and basically missed 1 1-2 games.

Even if they resign klay and durant, if klay has a torn acl he will miss most of next season, durant is pretty muchnout for next season...

they will go fighting just feels like it is over

during crunch time.

I'd start telling all my players to make sure they conceive 9 months b4 the playoffs

Draymond is ballin.

(still, apologies for the Drake reference)

just leave the shooter wide open / no contest

Just brutal.

I know all the pressure is on him. But Curry has to make some 3s. Or some shots. This is what all time players do.

for Toronto just feels wrong.

realizes they are down and need a stop right, he's just hacking away for some unknown reason.

Incredibly low IQ game from him so far tonight.

Agreed about Cousins, that's basically the book on him

Even that make was a little ooc, but worked out time. Could be great if he gets his head together

To see a Raptor called for a moving screen in the final minute of an elimination game like Cousins was in game 5, but that's asking for way too much.

that is

Green.

Curry tripped himself...Unbelievable they called that

SMH

He's been tossed about and held off the ball so frequently, but that is what gets a call?

complain about Curry who’s shot 60 free throws this series.
