Seriously. I won't even be that upset... so many injuries during this playoff run, it's kind of like *shrug* - shit happens, oh well.
Toronto fans are going to hate hearing for years and years about how a healthy Warriors team might have swept them. You should want KD to come back, but even so, he'll play 3 games at the very most.
Winner of tonight's game wins the series.

There won't be an asterisk if the Raps win, any more than there's an asterisk for the Cavs win a couple of years ago because of Draymond's suspension and Steph not being 100%, or the year before that when GSW won while Love and Kyrie were out. The team that lost (and its fans) always like to claim "asterisk!" but the rest of the world ignores that shit. If the Raps win, they win, and that's all history will care about.

As a basketball fan, I was always disappointed that Peak Hakeem never got to face the Bulls. I know Bulls fans like to think they would have won 8 straight if he didn't go play baseball, but I think those mid-90s Rockets teams were really special. And yeah, definitely no asterisk there either.

Completely agree. Injuries happen, it's just part of the game and always has been. I despise the "if so and so wasn't injured" nonsense. Well he was injured so tough shit. There's a reason three-peats don't happen often... you need to have some luck on your side just to win one championship much less three in a row.
If Toronto does win, I look forward to the craziness surrounding Kawhi's free agency. Has any star player in sports won a championship and then left the team the year after? I guess MJ retired that second time around, but he was sort of forced into it in an odd way.

Got yer 3-1 right here, Pal - 3 rings to 1. Cavs destroyed along with OKC, LA Clippers/Lob City and HOU. But, all good things come to an end...
BTW, can I tell you how happy we are that you’re back?
TahoeJ - can you PM me? I need to pick your brain about Japan. Taking my kid there in Feb. App says you don’t accept PMs.

The idea that he would be the goat is laughable. No one gives a shit and if the Warriors lose it’s because they had too many injuries. Us fans have never heard of the guy, it’s not like he’s Joe Lacob. And it’s not like he did that and then Lowry went off and won the game... basketball wise it’s completely irrelevant.

Narrative options:
1. Toronto beats massively injured Warriors team.
2. KD returns as the hero, coming back from 3-1 deficit.
3. KD returns and epic series, Toronto holds on after game 7.

Wow, the Warriors did not look good in the second half (all I watched).

Win or lose, this was still a sad day, or second to last sad day in Oaktown. This sums things up pretty good, and and can be applied to A's and Raiduhs next door as well. Hope the A's can find a way to stay around.

NBA 2018/2019 thread
Could you imagine the Raptors blowing a 3-1 lead???Teams in the NBA finals are 33-1 when up 3-1. 33-1! Blowing a lead like that is such a rare occurrence it’s only happened one time and was just such an utter failure. I honestly couldn’t imagine it happening to the Raptors this year. I mean shit, that would suck so hard for their fans too. It’s almost like the entire fanbase of the NBA would never, ever forget a team that blows a lead like that.
(my team couldn’t even beat this short handed GSW team so at least I can still make fun of 2016)
