If raptors win tonight the result will be a championship celebration at oracle arena which will not have the same feeling as winning in Canada at their home court, if raptors lose and they go to game 7 then the momentum will be on warriors and they could potentially make a comeback of their own after losing from 3-1.

This game is very risky on both ends, of course winning a championship is still winning a championship doesn't matter where it is but if it was given the option raptors would probably prefer to win at their home court.
Theres no other special thing on winning a championship with your own Homecourt.The feeling and the ambiance you do know that all people around you
is your countrymen which do support your team but I agree as said that championship is championship no matter what place you are into you wouldn't care too much.
Comeback is possible if warriors will able to snatch this game 6 but without having Durant seems really a very hard one.

If Durant was healthy this whole series Warriors would of already ended the Raptors.  I'm going with the Warriors to win game 6 at home, I'm not going to flat out call the NBA rigged (although previous referee scandals in the past don't look good), the NBA will want this to go game 7 for the revenue.

think we will see raptors as the new champs now when durant is out, this is so incredible , cant stop to smile Cheesy
We will see it then, everyone also thought that game 5 would be for Raptors but it didn't worked out. There's a huge advantage for Raptors for the last games[if ever they will lose again to game 6] that they had after leading the standing for this series. I feel sad that KD didn't contributed much for this championship series that he's always ever wanting but he contributed well for the playoffs. Are we really going to witness the first ever championship of Raptors tomorrow? I'm excited.

Their chance to win their first ever championship is obviously very high. And even if they are playing at Oracle Arena, every Raptors fans are going to be glued on their big screen to watch history unfolds. No need to talk about KD anymore, he has done his share and no doubt he contributed big last game.

So this is exciting, of course we wanted to have a Game 7, but if it's Toronto's time to win then so be it. This year has a lot of unpredictable things that happen in the NBA and we wouldn't have thought that Toronto will be in the finals and they are the one to stop GSW for a three-peat.
Yes, the favor is with them and everyone is getting excited to see that trophy goes to Raptors. If I'll be asked, I want Raptors to end this series by game 6 and let them take home the bacon so that they will have it for the very first time.
Let a new team experience the throne.

Looking forward to tonight's game, I'm a Raptors fan and seeing the title within their grasp after 3 years of early exits to the Cavs has me all tingly.

I'm going with Raptors clinching the series tonight, Durant is out and if the splash brothers can be contained it should be all over. Interestingly the last 4 games in the series have been won by the visitors, so TOR have that going for them tonight too  Wink

Going to keep it simple again with the bets:

🏀Raptors +2.5 (1.97)
🏀Total points: Over 212 (2.02)


If I had to pick a player prop it would probably be Kawhi Leonard (Points) Under 30.5 (1.89) - I think it's time for Siakam or Lowry to score big  Smiley

I doubt Durant made any difference in the game at all. He played a total of what 12 minutes? Dude scored couple baskets and that helped them for sure since he carried at least a quarters worth of scoring help plus allowing others to rest for a while but he wasn't the factor that changed the whole game.

Draymond on the other hand played such a great last minutes that dude managed to score a three when Iggy was afraid of shooting and made it, he scored a left hook off balance and helped his team 5 points that way while Kawhi was scoring couple times in a row so he kept the difference close, plus he blocked (lets say his fingers grazed the ball) the last shot so basically even though I hate Draymond dude won them the game.

I don't think it is down to one or two guys. It was their trust in their system that brought them back to life even after Kahwi made a good run for the Raptors. Add to that the wasteful play of Lowry.

Both teams have a great system, for the Raptors, it was not only Leonard alone but his teammates get involve as well.

It was just that people think the Raptors will beat the Warriors as the Raptors is a healthier team and as this series prolong, the advantage is on them.
The warriors can't afford to have one of their starters again to get injured so they have to be careful as even if they will win game 6, there' still last game that needs to be played on the road.

I will just enjoy the game tomorrow, and I'm doubtful on the Warriors winning game 6 although playing at home.

Durant is already over for this series, but his contribution in gambling 5 is outstanding, he played his heart out not thinking that he might aggravate his injury and therefore this man deserves a lot of respect.
Everyone has been grateful to see him play on game 5 but that's just the end for this series and he has to take care of himself now and move on to the next season of the league. I don't know how hard the pain was when he's running and jumping during the entire game but he still managed to contribute to the team well. In the past, a lot of hates were thrown to him and words that were extremely annoying but I agree that this guy deserves a hats off.

Correct, we can't really deny his contributions in Game 5. I mean his mere presence might probably spark the Warriors to hit those shots in the first and second quarter alone and it gave them enough cushion. Others said that Durant is soft, but he proved his critics wrong again by scoring what? more than 10 points in that stretch.

Time for him to take a rest now and forget another comeback in Game 6.

In game 6 we will see how the Raptors protect their series advantage now that Durant is out. I also believe that there is no comeback for the Warriors this time around.

Draymond is the most underrated player on the Warriors since all the attention goes to Durant, Curry, and Thompson.  Guy is a spectacular all around player and does every little thing to help his team win even though it doesn't all show up on the stat sheet.

How can you say that he is underrated? He is already a starting line up of a super team, that already means a lot. And the coach trusts him so much that he is being put in charge to guard star players of the opposing team. Bandwagons may only see the top stars but I am sure real sports fans recognize his talent and dedication.

It's because they don't see the intangibles that Draymond bring to Golden State, he can take all 5 positions in my opinion, and there are no stats for that. He brings so much emotions that players will really have to deliver, whether consciously or not.

And then we have this image of Green, not soft but most of the times he is consider as a bad actor in the floor, Lol. And that defense or pressure he put on Lowry on the closing seconds is the key for the Warriors to win that game. He didn't go in front of Lowry, but quickly move to his strong hands causing Lowry to get distracted and miss the shot.
Of course you can't go in front, they will used it to create contact. I've search in google and they are saying Green blocked Lowry causing the ball to change direction and not because he got distracted. His fingertips did make it. I was waiting for zoomed replay but they didn't do it. Hopefully, they will show it next game.

He's underrated to those who's not paying attention how basketball system really works, he's an upgraded Dennis Rodman where he's adding numbers
aside from rebounding but also with assisting and scoring stats.

Now that I agree with.
A lot of people are just looking for those who can score. Even basketball enthusiast and analysts do that.

I say, what the hell. There is so much players out there who makes a lot of difference to the game and yet doesnt really score.

One is the prime Ariza, how about Ben Wallace? Bruce Bowen is also one of the good example. Dennis Rodman.

Underrated for fools but yet a superstar for those who really looks at a larger size of the real game of basketball.

I love Draymond, he is a bad boy on the floor and he brings energy to the team, he is valuable, remember when he was suspended in their series against the Cavaliers before, Warriors lost that game and actually they also loss in game 7 in their own home court, so if they will win in game 6, there's a chance they can win even on the road because in the Finals, home court is not a big factor anymore, their effort is very important and we know Warriors does not give us easily.

Just hope he doesn't get another technical on Game 6 because he already has 6 Technical fouls already. Another technical means he will be suspended the next game. That would be devastating to GSW if that happens.

They certainly know that, but then Draymond will stay focus on the game and sometimes he forget to control his emotion and that's the risky part for him. He need to chill as it's not the last game, they still have game 7 if they will win tomorrow. I respect this man for his passion in his sport and he does everything just to help the team win. Not that they are undermanned, they cannot allow to also loss him in game 7 due to technical fouls as surely that would be an easy win for the Raptors who are very hungry for the title.

He don't need to do anything harsh as he's worthy inside the lineup, now that KD and Loony will no longer there to help them up, Green is the pure
heart of Warriors, it's not the splash Bro who created the game play it's green who made the space for this two superstar, without green inside there's
a big difference from the system.

He's underrated to those who's not paying attention how basketball system really works, he's an upgraded Dennis Rodman where he's adding numbers
aside from rebounding but also with assisting and scoring stats.

Draymond can be the front line of GSW. His been the big guy since then that is why he was very confident of telling Durant that they've already done it before and they will still can even if his not on their side. Draymond obviously as you said is not under rated because he is on the starting roster line up and that only means that the management values him a lot.

It is obviously exactly he fans who actually don't understand what a basketball sport is lol.
