If you were paying attention to these finals then you have noticed 3 huge things. First is that Toronto has been playing their best basketball all year. Kawhi Leonard and Kyle Lowry has been leading this team with confidence and it has been flowing through the rest of the players. Van Vleet has stepped his game up and Siakum has been a beast down low. Second is that the Warriors are decimated with injuries. Durant is trying to be healthy and he came to practice on Sunday which I actually think helped this line come down to -1.5, but afterwords, Durant had some ice on his Achilles and his Calf. Even if KD comes back, he will be quite rusty. Third, the Warriors heads are not in the game. It looks like Steph has a lot of plans this off-season including his new show Stephen vs The Game as well as other ventures. I don’t think that Kawhi seems to care about anything right now other than winning. I am thinking that the Raptors also saw St Lewis lose in their game 5 and now have to travel back to Boston. This situation and this might help motivate Toronto to finish the job at home. It is time Canada wins their first NBA Championship and it will be tonight.
Raptors 1st half -1 – 2 stars
Raptors full game -1.5 – 1 star
