few good players and even they could.not beat lebron when he was playing on the same conference in the east.



"Few"? he says. This is NBA, this is not something that is just like a league in your place that when a team has a few good players they losses, they are picked for a reason. It is obvious that Kawhi made the team great, he did make shots but also make good teamwork and that is why GSW is lacking. If Curry will be carrying his team at this back, that will be their loss. They have Green, they Iguodala, they Thompson, and other great players, what are they doing?
Leonard's presence really being enjoyed by his teammates, they are selections of good players who only needed to be guided by a star with a big heart to inspire them all, Leonard bring a champion caliber type of game after leaving Spurs.

Not really a Raptors fan but as an observant, this what I have seen from their past performances, Leonard is so consistent bringing the hype to the team.

Yes Durant might really play the game now.
But this will be his own choice and not the medical team of GSW now their management.

If he is cleared to play, then I guess he is capable. Where can we read something about the news? like a source, please give us.


One thing he might be worried about. His price getting down in free agency.

What would be the reason why his price will go down?
I mean, if he will play in game 5, but he can still manage himself and he can be not as aggressive as he was when fully healthy.

A tough decision for KD. Health or Wealth.

He maybe is not thinking about that for now, his main concern is to help his team.

Now curry feels how lebron james feels when the time lebron is carrying the whole game versus GSW. There's no pure luck on cavs winning a game, they have the skills, suddenly some of its players leave so they become weak.

I don't think so. Lebron James is carrying his team way before he was joined by two all stars, way before he was teamed up with Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving, that makes him different. Don't get me wrong, Stephen Curry is a great player but he can't do what Lebron can do especially with his opponent right now. We should not even compare these two since we all know Lebron is better. Legends had approved of this, GSW is losing and that's it. KD is having a hard time deciding what he wants to do right now. But I don't think he will be playing next game or the next game after that since Toronto Raptors might end this series 4-1.

Another is his agent. They might want to show how mostrous Durant is so that even before his retirement he will still be compensated with good numbers. Same will be given to his agent.

A tough decision for KD. Health or Wealth.

I do not really know what happen to GSW, they are one solid good team and thinking that raptors had only few good players and even they could.not beat lebron when he was playing on the same conference in the east.

If they can win on game then GSW has still the chance to win championship game. This has already being done by CAVS when being left behind by GSW itself during their finals on 2016. If the cavs can do it then prettt sure GSW could also do the same.


You think so? Before the Cavs done that historic run, it was 0-38 in a 3-1 situation in the finals. So I guess it's was just luck that makes the Cavs win that championship. With the current situation, the warriors is deemed to lose in this finals and the raptors will be crown the new NBA champions this season.

Raptors has a lot of chance to win now than the GSW. They can only win because of KD, but now he is on an injury, no one can help curry to play the game. Now curry feels how lebron james feels when the time lebron is carrying the whole game versus GSW. There's no pure luck on cavs winning a game, they have the skills, suddenly some of its players leave so they become weak.

I'm surprised that the Raptors are even in this position.  I thought they would never make it past the conference finals to begin with.  Granted, if Durant was healthy during this entire series the Warriors would be leading.  The series still isn't over though and we all remember what happened when Golden State was up 3-1 vs Cleveland.

For fairness sake am I the only one would love to see Warriors win game 5 ? Even if KD will be unavailable ?

I'd love the Warriors to win in Toronto, then KD should be in line for the game 6, although the probability of that happening is about 40% if not less. Then just maybe the Warriors can force a game 7, that'd be such show for real!
It would be entertaining to watch if this series goes into game7. The question is can KD sustain his play unitl game 7? Considering he is not at 100% if he plays in game5. Can his injury or his condition can last in 3 games? If he isn't in 100%, his injury may become worst until game7.

Considering that Durant would be back in game 5, can he save Warriors from falling?
There's still less chance as they have to win the next 3 games to win in the NBA finals, and two of those are in the home court of the Raptors starting game 5.
The homecourt advantage will make the Raptors very motivated to win the series in front of their home crowd, making it more challenging for Durant to prove its worth, if he can comes up with some spice that will turned things into their favor and extend the series to deciding game 7 😉.

Waiting for game 5 still hoping that series will be extended after KD's return and help the team to win back.

Does Durant really 100% to play on game 5? I don't think so. Maybe he can shot a couple of baskets but he will be a liable in the end game like Thompson. Anyways, I lost to a bet that the warriors will win the series in game 5 though.

there are some news saying KD is impossible to play for the whole series of this finals so if KD wont play this game 5 Toronto has a huge chance to take the championship but I saw KD on game 2 having a good physical condition but I dont know if he can afford to play inspite of his good condition.


who would have tought that the raptors would beat gsw , this is insane what a performance so far. realy hope they go all the way! Cheesy

Durant is said to return on either game 5 or game 6, now if he returns on game 5 and then they win I think momentum can change but if he doesn't return on this game neither then the raptors will probably end the series at Canada. I mean it was so obvious that raptors are taking things so seriously I watched a video where the team as a whole were leaving the court after the win and going to dressing room and none of them were celebrating, they were all just going directly without any laughs or
cheers or anything. Durant on game 5 will be the whole deal, raptors could still win even if Durant returns since he hasn't played in a while and will be still in pain a bit and that is why even he may not be enough.

Kawhi is really in a good night.

Kawhi has no off night, unlike Curry, and that is the big difference, the chemistry of the Raptors are really outstanding, everyone has confident to score and contribute in any ways possible.

They will adjust again in game 5, but that's too late for them as the Raptors already have the momentum going back home, and they are hungry for their first NBA Finals Champion.

What no off night?! Did you even really watched game 2?
It is like all of them cannot even shoot the ball gor 2 quarters and that includes Kawhi. It is just that Green three point when they got back. Hell there is not even a good defense when they shoot it.

All have their off night, even Jordan does and Kobe.

I wony rely on a momentum. That could bring your A game down thinking they can really do it and makes their hopes up. Better just play hard or else there will be another record that will happe  for a great come back in the history of Finals NBA.

Durant can also defend Leonard, it's not too late for him, if he likes to come back, that would be in the do or die game.
One win on the road will make their chance alive in the series as most likely they can win the game 6 at home, people really hoping for him to come back.
Lets say that Durant can defend Leonard yes but the question is, will Durant be on the court on Game 5 100% healthy?

Now Game 5 will be on the Raptors home and a chance for them to get their first championship. The odds are favoring to them. Klay played well on Game 4 but Curry didn't contribute that much to the game. He is well defended so the Raptors held him with under 20 pts IIRC. If Durant will not play on Game 5, its a game over for them but if he will play the chances of them winning on the road will increase a bit.

Indeed Kevin Durant can sure play on Game 5 but is he gonna play at his full 100% potential and back on Game 4 Thompson really has a hard time moving around because of his injury, And like you have said there is a tiny bit of hope for Golden State Warriors to make a 3-2 come back, right now that 2 main key players are not in their 100% playing conditions, And as a fan of GSW I am having doubts if they could really make a comeback this time, Because after seeing how well the players of Toronto Raptors are playing there is a high possibility this Championship could be taken by the Raptors.
