Nah. NBA will want to extend this to at least 6 games, & back to Oracle. Then anything can happen. If the Cavs can come back from 3-1 (while also not having home court advantage), then this Warriors team can too.

That's possible, but I have seen absolutely nothing from the Warriors to suggest otherwise. The party is still on Toronto, get ready for you big parade.

The refs called foul on Curry for kicking his leg out on a 3pt shot tonight.

It's a miracle it took this long for them to figure out this BS move.

If the Warrior's lose,the talk around town will be they we're injured in these finals. As Game 3 was the most pivotal game but than there was no KD or Klay.

Game 4 ,Kawhi took over as every superstar has one of those games when he explodes.Curry exploded in Game 3 but he literally had no other help.

Game 5 is still up in the air though,if KD returns than he's the guy that can go up against Kawhi and than things become interesting. But if KD doesn't return than this Warrior's team is over with. What a great run but without that 3peat, you don't reach that echelon of greatness.

And to the Raptors, Clearly not the best team in basketball but injuries happened and Kawhi is showcasing why he's one of the best player's in the world.

Not that relevant to whats going on the court but good God some people are ridiculous and should have social media taken away from them.
The Cult of Beyoncé are sick people that are into dicordianism, knowingly or unknowingly depending on the individual. You have to be insane or have high level low self esteem to write that you'd "Want to leave this earth if Beyoncé looked at me that way." That's a real Twitter post in that link.

I'm not saying the 2019 Finals are over, but man 3 rings in 4/5 years is pretty great, all good things must come to an end someday, heck, most people would give up an arm or leg for their team to win one NBA Finals in 50-100 years!

The 15 Cavs had the 2nd best player of all time according to Lebron fans so the Goat should be able to get it done against a young Curry & Klay.

The Raptors taking a commanding 3-1 lead in the finals shouldn't be a shock if you've been watching every game. With the Warriors nursing injuries, they're facing a tough hungry team in the Raptors, who have been very business like in getting the upper hand in their pursuit of their first NBA championship. Now the question is whether KD will be back and help the Warriors dig themselves out from a 1-3 deficit. Although you can't rule it out, its a tall order, starting with facing raucous crowd at Scotiabank arena for game 5.

He did take down a 73 win team the following year.

Curry and Klay being young is irrelevant IMO. Is either really better now than they were back then? You can be young and really good still. And if anything, that team was better with guys like AI and Livingston that had even less wear on their bodies then they do now.

Then they added Durant, the second best player in the game to a 73 win team. That was BS. At least with Wade, Bosh and Lebron, we didn't know what kind of team they were going to or would be. As a fan of the game I certainly don't pitty the Warriors for not having Durant in this series. Time for them to put their big boy pants on and win it like they did in '15 and not choke like they did in '16.
