This is so great. I don't know how to embed an instagram post on here but:

Makes me miss my days when I was poor after graduating from uni and living near King St. and when I wanted to treat myself I'd go to Island Foods for the best roti ever.

At least Drake isn't A) a part owner and B) banging on the actual players.

Heh the guy who pushed Lowry is a part owner of the Warriors. That's got to be awkward.

I suspect Mr. Stevens will be receiving an extremely large fine pronto for this.

Could be in the million dollar range.

really wonder how the league handles this as if it was just a random fan doing so, that fan would be banned from NBA games for life without hesitation.

Lowry's been actively lobbying for him to be banned from NBA games for life. Dunno if that's going to happen now, but probably results in a much larger fine.

Hard to see how they could ban an owner from attending his own games.

I mean...its his team.

That being said, they could always force him to sell is share, but that would be down the road anyways.

He'll probably get banned from courtside and relegated to the luxury box instead.

Warriors statement:
Mr. Stevens’ behavior last night did not reflect the high standards that we hope to exemplify as an organization. We’re extremely disappointed in his actions and, along with Mr. Stevens, offer our sincere apology to Kyle Lowry and the Toronto Raptors organization for this unfortunate misconduct. There is no place for such interaction between fans—or anyone—and players at an NBA game.
Mr. Stevens will not be in attendance at any of the remaining games of the 2019 NBA Finals.

And if Lowry would have reacted it pretty much would have ended his career, but this rich #### just has to stay home for 2 more games.

I suspect that the league weighs in before tomorrow night...again with a huge fine and more "we will investigate further" stuff.

Maybe quietly force him to sell his share over the summer.

Apparently he will be making a donation to Lowry’s foundation and will issue a public apology but has not reached out to Lowry yet.

All per an Arash Madani tweet I can’t find at the moment.

Edit: Here it is:

Klay may be OK but how fit will KD be even if he returns after like a month long layoff? Let's say the Raps take game 4 for a 3-1 lead, a Dubs line up at full force could win 3 straight. So the Raps better take Game 4 on Friday.

Apparently it's a moot point, because Smith was wrong. Kerr has announced that Klay is expected tomorrow, but has ruled out Durant for game 4. Durant was expected to take part in some scrimmage action today, but that did not happen.

So, Klay at probably less than 100%, and no KD. There's a chance to take both games, and they need to take advantage of that.

Klay's injury is hamstring strain which could be rather minor so I would expect him to be close to 100% on Friday. KD's effectiveness even if he does return in the series is much in doubt, however.
