Another interesting tidbit....the Warriors had 34 assists, including assists on every single basket they made in the 2nd half.

For me, it was Magic's first game back after the AIDS diagnosis. Mega-watt smile on his face. We got crushed in Oaktown.

Not taking away from that..but they also took way too many outside shots..they weren't even looking to score inside and that was the problem the entire 2nd half

Well very simple to break down this game. Curry did nothing Klay got hurt and warriors still won, because the raptors could not score first 6 min of 3rd and last 4 min of 4th. And a lot of them where wide open looks only them selfs to blame probably cost them the series.

Whew.......what an ugly ugly second half! The warriors obviously played the first 6 mins of the 3rd qtr extremely well taking the 18-0 run but boy after that it was a difficult game to watch! Raptors completely ate a crap sandwich in the second half. The offence went completely cold. I thought golden state played good but not great defence in the 3rd. Raps were missing open looks and rushing/taking bad shots. The pressure of the run I think caused the poor offensive outing more than the warriors defensive effort. The 4th qtr was extremely painful, especially the last 5 mins. Warriors were giving the raptors every chance to come back and win that game but they kept missing open looks and played sloppy. Haha that win was a hang on and let the raptors play just as crappy as we are type of win lol. Obviously the warriors should be happy with the win (a win is a win) but there was a ton of awful basketball by both teams.

Raps missed 2 wide-open 3s with 4-5 minutes to play that would have cut it to 5, that's where we lost imo, Kawhi had one, Siakam had one.

Also as much as I love Pascal, why did he just stare at Iggy instead of running at him on the dagger 3? Literally just stood there then slowly walked back to cover no one as the shot went up

Raptors had their chance. We're gonna see some separation in the next two games.

One of the things you notice about the Warriors is that they do not get flustered when a team or player gets hot....they understand reversion to the mean.

Usually when the Warriors go down early it's because a player or two on the other team has gotten hot from deep, and usually when they come back it's because those players have inevitably cooled off.

Lol. Klay knows how to light up fools both on and off the court.

All the time. They just keep playing their brand of basketball, regardless of the score. It’s incredible.

Klay Thompson lost 30 million dollars b/c he didnt make the 3rd team all-nba. I would act like a b*tch too. He couldnt even finish the game.

I’m not sure why he thought it was a good idea to try to land in a split after his shot attempt. Starting to seem like these guys fall due to muscle memory at this point.

Good to see elite Draymond is back and will be a key cog in a Warriors championship!

I’m pretty sure Klay was hit in the air and was worrying about turning an ankle by landing on someone’s foot. He never tries to bait foul calls.

If you're only pretty sure, you should go watch that play again. It's obvious he was fishing for a foul on that shot.

I did and Green hit him while he was in the air and most likely felt unbalanced when trying to land. I’ve been pushed while in the air before. It’s very unsettling.

Thompson suffered the injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s Golden State win over the Toronto Raptors when he landed awkwardly after kicking out his leg trying to draw a foul on a jump shot.

Let's be real. Klay did get a bump and I personally thought it was a foul, he then tried to milk it with the leg flailing.

Aww did I piss in your Wheaties? So some guy writes an article and it’s gospel lol? Lighten up Francis. Klay was hip checked while in the air. It’s a fact watch the video. As for my experience, have someone push you while in the air and see what you do with your legs.
