Siakam is such a stud
He's killing it. Wow.
Siakam and the Raps defence... You just know these feckers can turn it around in a space of a minute though. Need Kawhi to step also.

Siakam
I can't see the Warriors winning this for 2 reasons
1. Not able to stop Siakam
2. Same point but diff take is everything Siakam throws is going in.

Raptors don’t have a single lottery player on their entire roster. Wow.
its really cool to see cousins and gasol play in the finals after toiling away on non-playoff teams for so long
Looks like everything is going to go in for the Raptors today. Half expected that Danny Green heave to go in.
Lowry, Jesus. 
Whatever happens, at least it won't be a sweep.
Lovely jubbly!!
Raptors are legit These playoffs they’ve gone from bad to great multiple times, hope they can be permanently great against these.

We're not getting swept!
Well that's not off the table yet.
We're not sweeping the Dubs
Still fancy you to win both your home games. Reckon this will go to 7.
The Warriors have lost their last 4 NBA Finals games without Durant.
With him in the team: 8/9.

It's a bit awkward seeing Toronto in the finals. Just shows how much Miami and Cleveland have dominated the East this decade. It's nice to see a fresh face at this stage, it must be said. Electric atmosphere as expected.
GS just need to write this game off, they only need to get one in Canada. They didn't play poorly, but it felt as if every bounce went Toronto's way. The energy from the crowd was always going to lift Toronto in a game like today - being the first final's game in franchise history.
Siakam played the game of his life (14-17 shooting is unreal), and it remains to be seen if he can replicate this performance which will be crucial in how Toronto fares in this series. Although one could say you'd expect Kawhi to play better in the coming games as well.

Brilliant atmosphere here in Toronto. Great victory for Raptors. Still think Warriors will clinch the series. Great night to be here in Toronto.
Lets go RAPTORS!
Gasol and Siakham coming up big, helped by the focus on Kawhi. Green played well and FVV still going strong.
Curry is something else. What a player. But this raptors defense is one of the best and toughest in the league.

Can’t believe I missed the first game .. great win. Siakham was a beast!
.. great win. Siakham was a beast!Very entertaining match, won't be a clean sweep after all. Gasol has been really really good these playoffs.
Been loosely following this.
Why is this idiot Drake allowed to get so close to the players like this? He comes across as an absolute moron. At least to an outsider like me.
Imagine one of the Gallagher brothers being allowed to run up and down the line at the Etihad hurling abuse or getting involved with our players. it just wouldnt happen.

NBA is different. Star interference has long been tolerated, Spike Lee and Jack Nicholas come to mind. Best way to shut them up is to beat the other team, just ask Reggie Miller.
Good PR for the NBA. American sports are as much about the spectacle as they are about the actual competition.
NBA is about having fun and memes. It's nothing like football.
So, do Warriors need Kevin Durant? Best possible scenario for both Warriors and him, is to lose the next game, and then to win the tie with him coming back from the third game. If that happens, he will sign the new contract IMO, there would be feck all to further prove.
Even supporting the Raptors I’d love nothing more to see a ball spiked into Drakes face
People don't take major life decisions like this bro. Whatever he does he's probably decided it already.
A lot of people are saying that he still doesn't know what he is going to do, and the only reason why he is (likely) going to leave the Warriors is cause he feels that people don't give him the respect he deserves (despite being two times fMVP and the best player in the world). Everyone says that Warriors don't need him, if he somehow proves the contrary (it is a big if obviously, considering that he probably won't return for the finals), then he might decide to stay. Similarly, if Warriors don't win the title, then he might decide to stay.
I'd laugh my tits off if they let them do that.
people are never going to change their mind on Durant joining the Warriors. he knows it.
Toronto will win it all. Mark my words!!
Think the next game is really key, if we lose then I think we’ll definitely come back from Golden State 3-1 down, but if we can go there 2-0 up then I’d fancy us to pinch one down there.
Have faith. Their cycle is at its end
We shall see.
If the raptors win I’m driving straight to the closest Tim Horton’s for a box of timbits and a wank whilst looking at @Dwazza Gunnar Solskjærs face
Just hope this doesn't end up the way the Lakers - Sixers finals did
