Stephs the goat.

I am 100% rooting for Toronto but I do hope Klay can come back and maybe even KD for games 6 and 7 so we do not have to hear a summer of asterisks and excuses

i think they will be back Friday

the big question of the night is , will we get 2 days of free tacos?

They have three players hurt during the playoffs that play 20+ minutes a night normally (two that would play near 40).

Would any other team in the NBA keep a finals game within 30 if that happened?

Lebron was in a similar spot in 2015 and was able to take 2 games kinda singlehandedly from GS.

So not totally impossible but well beyond the realm of reasonable.

by vegas line (-5.5) i assume klay is in, kd is still out.

I've never been able to figure out the basketball play where there's a guy on a mini breakaway and someone comes down the floor and blocks it off the backboard from behind - and then lands on and crushes the guy that was on the breakaway sometimes forcing him into the front row of photographers. You can do that and there's no foul?

[nick]

sorry for quality but looks like they all went up straight and made contact with ball and buddy going flying is irrelevant.

[dakshdar]

I'm not saying they didn't make contact with the ball. I guess I thought you could still have a body foul even if you make a clean block on the ball.

Plays like it happen every game, was looking for a general explanation on why it's legal (or if it's just something they'll never call?).

btw, NBA Reffing is abysmal. They need younger refs to keep up.

[nick]

btw, gotta put an asterisk beside Golden States 2015 title win over the Cavs.. Lebron lost Irving and Love and almost single handedly beat the Warriors, but they were down 2/3'rds of their superstars so the W doesnt count for GSW.. thats how this works right?

The dude who shoved Lowry and was kicked out of the game actually owns a small stake in the Warriors.

That should be interesting to see how that plays out.

This world is getting soft, that was about the biggest waste of time to search for a push in my life, lol

[Cnasty]

I still havent seen anything that he did push him even on the replay last night.

Not sure how Lowry felt it through all that baby fat anyways. Pansy.

Poor baby.
