Come on. You’re aren’t beating the champs by 30 points. This is the NBA and teams keep it close. Raps were up 7 with about 9 minutes left and then outscored the Warriors rest of the way. They will take that 4 th quarter every single time.

Curry + Refs tried their best but the Raps held on.

I hate Curry so much. Talk about punchable faces. Plus his constant flopping and whining for calls is so grating. Oh and always gnawing on his mouthguard.

The amount of no-calls against Kawai and Lowry compared to him is absurd. They are getting hacked and legitimately fouled while initiates the contact and gets the calls.

2 more baby! 2 more!

Nice win. Man, the depth works on the Raps. It’s all about confidence with them though. I really we don’t have to worry about KD. It’s smoke and mirrors.

All the pressure on Warriors now, quick turnaround, Thompson will be rested but potentially hobbling, nobody really knows Durant's status, and Green and Curry coming off 42+ minute nights. Really hope to see some killer instinct from the Raptors on Friday.

Not only that they had them at the end of the 4th and took the foot off the gas. Thompson was already out by then.

Bill Russell’s Celtics had great depth too. Warriors still a great team and will still take a lot or knock them out, even with 2 all stars not playing.

Raptors are full marks.

Good, consistent game. Very few lapses. They definitely slumped at the end of Q2 and had a few moments in Q3 and early Q4, but each time settled it down and re-established the lead. Gotta like that sort of mental toughness, which has been lacking in some games this postseason. Can't really complain about much of anything tonight.

I have to think Klay is for sure playing in Game 4. If he was arguing to be let into this one, there's no way in hell they can keep him out of the next one. Barring some sort of serious setback, anyway.

It makes such an enormous difference to have Green knocking down his shots. It adds so much to our offense.

It also makes an enormous difference when the team as a whole has a 52/45/95 shooting night. Probably have won even if the Warriors were fully healthy shooting like that.

context...I said "the last few minutes" talking about the stretch where the Raps looked like the keystone cops. They got it back under control. Not taking anything away from their game, did what they had to do.

lol the US media narrative is that the Warriors basically gave the Raptors this one so they could get healthy. They seem dumbfounded the Warriors are being outplayed.

That's annoying.

The Warriors still have Draymond Green, Demarcus Cousins, Andre Igoudala and Steph Curry, it's not like they were playing the Knicks.

Raps were very very good.

Sure... and Lowry is the biggest whiner in the league by far.

If you were watching on ABC, they said during the broadcast that this Warriors lineup wouldn't have even made the playoffs.

Anyway, Kenny Smith guarantees - and just to be clear, he said it four or five times, "I guarantee" - that both of Durant and Klay will play game 4.

So. If that happens, that's going to be interesting.
