Grats Shack and the rest of Canada.
These playoffs ended up being the same as last year with Kawhi playing the role of LeBron James as the only difference.

Happy to see Lowry make the finals, and VanVleet really proved he was the X-factor, 3-0 since he woke up. It's a little bittersweet because I wish I was in a better place emotionally to appreciate this, but I'll take it |

Looney and Klay return in Game 3 plus an improving Demarcus Cousins (who was wise to not rush his rehab) Durant returns in Game 4 I can see this ending in 5 games. 6 at most. Warriors win it all again. Curry gets his first Finals MVP. |

dang. should have been 3-0. No more Warriors. Now they are still alive despite the 2-1 lead by Toronto. Keep that hamstring down and keep the other guy out. |

Nadal does it again. 18 Majors 93-2 French Open record I think it was 55 clay titles. Something in the 50s. |

59 clay titles almost touching 60. Should have reached 60 this year but Nadal played badly in previous clay tournaments. Clay and specially FO is Nadal's backyard. I think he can get 2-3 more here to get to Roger's tally. Djokovic has started to show signs of age this year but I think he has better shot to reach 20+ slams. |

So Toronto loses championship game #1 tennis terms but I still have total confidence they'll win one of the final two. Warriors don't have the firepower. As far as he who shall not be named, he shouldn't have played. I read one lousy internet article with some doctor talking about a calf strain and thought he shouldn't play. Why risk your career for a lousy game. Dumb on the player's part, Kerr for letting him, the doctors for clearing and his agent too. Now maybe he comes back at a similar level but chances are he won't and now he'll be thinking about that injury every time he plays when he comes back. |

Yep, it was stupid as hell that he played last night. Could cost you your career. Toronto had a really, really bad last 3 minutes of coaching. Just terrible. |

Yeah that timeout at 3 minutes cost them the game. They were about to open up a double digit lead and destroy the Warrior’s spirit. Kawhi couldn’t miss. Whoever called it (disputed between Norse and Lowry) has obviously never played NBA Jam. I’ll give Durant credit for swinging the game too. His 11 points were huge and even his injury silenced the crowd into feeling bad about winning and took away the home court advantage. |

Raptors win. Kawhi now officially a Top 3 player in the NBA, right? |

Kawhi is definitely a franchise changing player. He's proven that by playing in Toronto. Dominating the playoffs. MVP again. Bravo to the Raptors but dang...they barely got by even a Klay-less Warriors in the 4th. As far as Klay, I'm not a fan just because he's so dang good. I think the Warriors probably win that game if he didn't get hurt but I am sorry that he tore his ACL on a random play. Totally different situation where the other guy was just dumb and probably played by the doctors/trainers and whoever else evaluated him. Not a chance anything could happen to his achilles...yea sure. |

Yeah I think the training staff doctors who OK'd Durant to play should be fired. If you listen to the broadcast of when he FIRST got hurt a month ago, they literally mention how it was probably his achilles, with the way he reacted. And then he just happens to rupture his achilles when he comes back? |

Grats to Canada. It was a weird title with all the injuries, but part of the game is surviving till the end. LeBron sure didn't wait long.

I think Vegas has Clips at 6-1 so I wouldn’t get too hopeful. Nobody has ever just bailed on a team after winning a title with them though. |
