    I don't know what I was thinking but the Bucks nor Raptors stand a chance in hell against the Warriors, their respective offenses are too stagnant

    I give the Raptors a chance, the Raptors have the best player in the NBA, the Raptors also have home court advantage. Ill pick the Raptors in 7 if they get there.

    Warriors do not have anyone who can stop Kawhi, Kawhi can take out anyone.... Kawhi is becoming the story of the postseason, if this guy takes this Raptors team who have been just snake bitten and bad forever, to the finals, and wins the whole thing, wow....just wow.

    The Raptors, don't have anyone to stop Curry. Sure they can put Kawhi on him, but then you got Klay and other players that have stepped up during the run. I hope its a good series regardless.

    Just disappointed in Giannis and his play, Raptors defense has been great but his confidence has taken a huge dip.

    I thought that while watching last night's game. It would be impressive for either team to force a Game 6 in the NBA Finals.

    Warriors may sweep either team, with or without Durant. Toronto is good on their home floor. Maybe they win a game or two

    Maybe the Raptors can clone Kawhi so he can guard Steph and Klay because thats the only way they are winning the series should they advance.

    Parody is good, parity is not

    I don't want to see a league of average teams, fuck that. I want to see dominance

    I spontaneously bet on the Raptors when they were down 12 and it was 6-1 odds. Can't believe they pulled it off. Bucks are in big trouble.

    Nice, don't spend your 6 bucks all in one place!

    Basically Raptors coaching has found a way to stuff the Bucks offence and Greek Freak doesn't have an answer. That and other Raptor players decided to show up and actually contribute to the Kawhi Leonard show

    Tonights the night for Kawhi Leonard, he has a chance to take one of the worst franchises in sports to the finals. I never thought I'd see the Raptors playing in the finals.

    Bucks had this game in the bag, up 15 with a few minutes left in the 3rd. Kawhi completely took over at the end of the 3rd to cut it to 5, and now with Kawhi on the bench the Raptors just tied it. The building is erupting like I havent seen an NBA arena erupt in a long time. Raptors can't let this be a let down at this point, its their finals trip in front of them.

    (17-2 run)

    Typical bullshit to happen to a Wisconsin sports team. Incredibly frustrating

    Bucks could have won this series, they had their chance to be up 3-0 but they blew it, blew double digit leads in game 5 and 6. Kawhi happened though, so as much as the Bucks may have choked, Kawhi has an iron will / killer instinct that few have. He may just well be the next MJ, he will have his chance to prove that as his career progresses.

    I guess I can officially say it now, Raptors over Warriors in 7 because of Kawhi Leonard.

    Congrats Raptors, its great to see a team that has suffered throughout its entire history take their first trip to the NBA finals.

    As embarrassing, and much of a let down that is, can't wait to see the Warriors destroy them 4-0.

    Oh I'm sure. Toronto isn't good. Milwaukee just blew it.

    Honestly, you are fooling yourself if you thought the Bucks had a chance to beat the Warriors, they looked young, inexperienced, and just not ready for the big stage. Im not sure if the Raptors can beat the Warriors, but I think they will do better than what the Bucks would have done, which would have been getting swept.

    Giannis has to get better, I havent seen a lot of him, but he just looked overwhelmed at times. He is so young though and if he can continue to get better, I don't see why the Bucks can't make the finals in the future.
