:think2: So I've paid attention to all 4 games in this series and with the exception of 6 minutes at the start of the 2nd half of game 2, when Toronto forgot how to score the basketball, the Raptors have dominated and the series could be over.

Now I'm seeing a 4 point line move because a player, one of my favorites irregardless, is coming back from a calf injury (anyone who has had this injury knows they take a lot longer typically than 30 days to heal) and money is pouring in on Golden State.

Yes this team when healthy is dynamic and scores seemingly at will, but Toronto plays defense and I can't get away from that. Home court now getting a point sign me up!

Basketball - 530 Toronto Raptors -105 for Game
Basketball - 530 Toronto Raptors -3 +132 Selling 4 Pts for Game

Agree. I like Raptors and those on Warriors hoping KD is diff. I don’t think so

Warriors continue to shoot 52% from 3pt range this ones over. When Toronto lost game 2 Lowry was in foul trouble early, same situation here. Wheres the home cookin???

Klay Thompson might be one of the greatest players I’ve ever seen play this game

Yes Klays a great player, not nearly close to one of the greats, but good complementary guy. Toronto coach screwed up up taking a timeout up 6 3mins left with momentum on their side. Looks like will go 7 now. TV revenue impacts another game.

Axel, you're great bro but to say Klay is a "good complimentary player" is just disrespectful. Dude is a badass. Great offensive player, one of the best pure shooters in the game, and an underrated defender. Good luck to you if you decide to bet again this series

Stickee seriously?? Without Curry and Durant getting so much attention teams would shut him down if he was the go to guy...need to see bigger picture.

Lol I was going to comment. Complimentary player is not the word I would use to describe him lol.

He is amazing. Won the game for them

Stickee FYI...Klay was -6 +/- tonight...like I said bigger picture. Good defender, good shooter but not one of the greats. Maybe I'm still upset not winning my play tonight but I'm still a realist.

Good? I use my eyes. He’s one of the greatest shooters I’ve ever seen if not the greatest. IMO, to start my team if I had a choice between Klay and Curry I’m taking Klay every single time. Thats just me though. Most wont agree.

Did you see down 6. Draymond pick up his 5th foul and yell to Klay to switch with him? He stripped Leonard. I don’t think Leonard scored again

Hey Mob sounds like you're overwhelmed by your dude-love for Klay. I'm not saying he's not a good/ great player in todays NBA. But, to comment he's an all time great is rediculous!

Lol nah. When it’s all said and done he will be a legend. Curry is better at creating, finishing around the hoop. But that’s it imo.

Legends of shooting are Reggie Miller, Larry Bird, Michael Jordan. If Klays anywhere near that list I'll be stunned!

Klay is an outstanding shooter and an excellent defender (his defense doesn't get enough attention, imo, and makes him far more valuable overall).

What keeps him from being listed with every other great shooter is his inability to create his own shot -- earlier this year, he scored 43 points and dribbled ONLY FOUR TIMES TOTAL ALL GAME! He needs other great players on his team for his open looks, which i suppose makes him complementary by definition.

He is a sure hall of famer, but he's not even top 5 in the NBA right now, so to call him an all time legend is going a bit far...
