    Watch it again. watch Kawhi actually have time to squat down and watch it.

    I know! The drama was huge. Then that reaction when it drops. The arena erupts and Kawhi just gets absolutely swarmed, it's fantastic.
    Basketball.

    What a game! That’s why Kawhi is my 2nd favorite player! Guy carries his team by himself to take out 4 other stars. Amazing!

    I don't even care about the raptors and it made me emotional. I didn't cry... but I felt the lip quiver.

    He could have had 4 points on 40 shots and that single shot would have redeemed him.

    That's a grown man shot. There's maybe 2 other players in the entire league that I'd think could hit that.

    Not a Raptors fan at all, I think their fanbase is generally terrible. Hell, I even hate Drake.

    But yeah... wow.

    Perfect example of the hypocriticism you use to what is in like with your thinking. The same could be said about Curry last night.. he took shots he normally hits but just didn’t. Like you said everyone has a bad game sometimes but when you are the reason your team wins and goes to the conference finals nobody cares!

    Yeah I don't know if I've ever even heard a whole Drake song. The only time I'd hear him is on a game soundtrack. And I always turn every song off immediately on those.


    Now here's the important question... What happens next. You got 4 teams.

    And the Blazers aren't getting past the Warriors without some voodoo. So.... ?

    Great shot, but I can name 3 guys on 1 team that could've made that shot. I watched one of them do it in the Smoothie King Center 5yrs ago. With AD in his face!

    I still think it's going to be Warriors/Bucks in the finals. As much as I think Kawhi has proven beyond doubt that he's superstar, the Toronto team as a whole had way too much trouble with the Sixers this series to give me confidence for them against Milwaukee who are just a much better team than Philly.

    Name 'em. I can't think of three guys in the entire league I'd bet on making that.

    Is KD missing the first 3 games a type of Voodoo?

    Eh........ Eh...... Eh........

    Ok yeah i agree.

    How many games do the Bucks v Warriors go?

    Warriors in 6?

    I mean, not on it's own, no.

    Not trying to put a damper on Kawhi or anything, the shot he just hit was monstrous.

    But if he had shot 25/38 leading leading into that, he wouldn't have needed the buzzer beater. They would have just won flat out.

    Curry (Curry's shot was tougher than Kawhi's) Durant, Harden, Klay, Lillard,

    I feel like Warriors in six is probably right.

    But my heart says Bucks in 7.

    If you see Lilliard coming to NOLA to get an urn full of dirt.... we'll know something is up.

    He will be re-evaluated in a week. Soo, how many games is that? Maybe 2, could be 3. Right?

    I had Lillard in mind. Durant too.

    I wouldn't trust Curry to make this shot with any consistency. Seeing him brick in the 2016 finals on the vital last shot was awful.
    I don't trust Harden to make it either, especially in the playoffs. The man crumbles under this kind of pressure. He'd take the shot and get blocked from behind by Ginobili.
    I wouldn't have faith in Klay to his this shot, in these circumstances. If it was a set shot corner three, sure, or a single contested shot off one dribble, sure. Not being hounded around the perimeter by three guys, barely able to see the rim.

    Hey that looked like Jamal Maglorie in that pile.

    The heart wants what it wants, right? Wouldn't bet six buttons and a can of Pepsi on it, but I'm going with Milwaukee. To win it all.
