    Old Draymond came back; complaining and doing everything but play poised championship basketball.

    Curry’s failure to excel was a major cause but I point to Draymond because he knows he sets the tone and he failed to be a leader. Instead of busting his butt to overcome, he became whiny look at me Draymond. Cousins’ TO filled starts didn’t help either.

    I give the Raptors credit for playing like a champ. Could have taken their whipping and gone home tied 2-2. Instead of waiting/letting Kawhi Dave then after an awful 1qtr the others stepped up and came though. Where Cook was missing wide open 3s, green and Siakam and VanVleet hit their shots.

    Ws still have a shot, especially if KD comes back but it’s a slim one.

    No wonder 3 pears are so rare.

    Ok just read a review and I’m probably too hard on Draymond but he just was complaining so much that’s what I remember.

    Durant just left the game hobbling.

    Toronto going Philly style with the KD injury. That was a choice.

    That's a really disgusting showing from the Toronto crowd. Jesus.

    Did y'all sleepwalk through that ALCS a few years back or something?

    I would say it was led by @John B. Foster but he’s probaly watching wrestling instead.

    It sucks that KD left the game hurt, but I hate the ridiculous narrative on Twitter that he rushed himself back only because he was pressured to do so. Please.

    He may have felt some pressure, but he wouldn’t have played if he really couldn’t and star players want the opportunity to be the savior. It was a good try, and I hope he’ll be OK, but acting like he didn’t have a say in the matter is complete bullshit.

    Yeah, I figured unless there was a significant chance of causing permanent damage there's no way he would miss this game.

    Would have been one hell of a long offseason for him if they lost and he never tried to come back. And I don't mean that he would take criticism -- I mean it would drive him nuts wondering if he would have made a difference.
