NBA...NBA...sounds familiar. Does that have something to do with minor league bowling?
How many basketball fans know that Toronto has an NBA franchise? Seriously, part of it could be not being familiar with the Raptors.
Nobody but Warriors fans want the Warriors to win the series, and they certainly don’t care for a team from Canada.
I wasted about 20 seconds watching.
Toronto may win an NBA title before the Stanley Cup
(their last being 52 years ago).
At least Toronto may go the White House if they win.
Most expected another Warriors rout, I suspect.
Now Women's National Basketball playoffs might be interesting, but how long until the sport was fully dominated by transgender "women"?
Nothing is sacred any more.
Okay, but there were A LOT of empty seats.
” . . . first NBA Finals game to see a non-American team win.”
That sort of statement never fails to amuse me - gotta hand it to Toronto in how they were able to get a team of the very best Canadian basketball players to show those Yanks how the game should be played
For me, first game of seven fatigue.
First game is near meaningless. Now, the second game is important, the team behind is under serious pressure as their odds for a championship dwindle if down 0-2.
So, I may watch the second game.
I hope Trump invites the Raptors to the Whitehouse should they win. Delicious.
Dynasties are boring. It’s just that simple.
Only slightly off-topic ...
the Women’s World Cup of Soccer starts in a few days in France. The USWNT is expected to show well possibly even win it all.
I haven’t watched the NBA since Bird, Magic, Dr. J, Moses Malone, etc.
The current @sswipes can go to hell.... the players AND coaches.
I had season tickets for the Lakers during their heyday of Kareem/Magic/Worthy years, today, I didn't even know who was playing in the Championship.
The raptors 76ers series was incredible and went down to the final shot in game seven
I’m hoping for the same thing in this final series and it looks like we’re going to get it
The Warriors are incredible but remember when LeBron finally won one for Cleveland and it was in game seven and it went down to him blocking one final shot it was incredibly dramatic
That’s what basketball is all about the final five minutes or two minutes
And in the major sports - game seven!
I for one am greatly looking forward to this series - I think the raptors are a great team and the Warriors are obviously incredible and so anything can happen!
NBA ping ! Sports don’t have no affirmative action !
Living in the Bay Area I was a Warrior fan until Curry and the Kerr (coach) got on the anti-Trump train.
Haven’t watched them since and I hope they lose.
Who cares, men being paid untold millios of dollars to run up and down the court with a ball. Like I said: “Who cares!”
What is ‘the 6’?
I see the Raptors play in Scotiabank Arena
Last finals I watched was 2007 with Mavs vs. whoever. I liked Mavs’ Dirk and Suns’ Steve Nash in the contentious semis. Classy players. Now ALL thugs. Lost interest.
