Darn!!

[mr. dee]

3-1 comeback looming?

[esel1000]

Wow, Toronto is going ot end up blowing this, huh? lol

They lose tonight, that very well could be bad news for them with the series. You don't give a team like the Warriors any life.

Lol omg, just watch Toronto is going to end up losing this series. That's a huge choke job.

They really could. It’s going 7 at least. What an unbelievable choke job.

Here’s what I don’t get

Up 103-97, Kawhi is on fire, crowd is loud, 3 minutes left and you have the ball. Why take a timeout??!?!

If you hit a shot in that possession you’re up 3 possessions and add more pressure on them. After that timeout GSW came out on fire and won it.

Toronto needed to keep playing with that momentum and instead basically allowed GSW to reset

[JSD]

There’s no coming back from that. Warriors in seven

Nick Nurse’s TO could come down as one of the worst calls in NBA playoffs history if they blow this

Yeah, why the hell did he do that?

They were exhausted. Particularly Kawhi.

Sigh... I thought the same thing...

I think long-term for the series the Raptors will be alright. Durant is out, and his 11 points in 12 minutes was the difference. No way they get that production from Iguodala. Also don't see the Warriors starting out another game shooting that well, as the floor will be less spaced without Durant.

Looney could be down for a game too, which would be a bad loss for them. Cousins is still a dumb player who can't play defence, regardless of how many points he scored.

Initial prediction was Raptors in 6. Staying with it.

The anti-Brad Stevens

Kawhi waited way too long on that last possession. He didn't look like he really wanted the shot. And that shot by Lowry was pathetic. He panicked cause Green was nearby but really he had a pretty good look and hit the side of the backboard.

What a choke!!!!

[Atzar]

Raps fans didn’t deserve to celebrate tonight anyway.

[SparzWizard]

Golden State is 6-1 when facing elimination.

I don't like that stat.

It must be demoralizing to lose a home Game 5 with a 3-1 lead. This could quickly become 3-3 with a Game 7. Nick Nurse made the worst timeout call of all time.

EDIT: Nick Nurse is going to lose his job if they lose this series.

[JSD]

Cannot say this Raptors crowd didn’t deserve it, cheering Durant’s injury and all. Pathetic.

[Jiri Welsch]

That was absurd. All heart from GSW. Dang

The Warriors went on a 9 to 2 run after that timeout
