Three Questions from the Raptors ahead of Game 6 vs. the Golden State Warriors
After an ugly loss on Monday, Jannelle Moore of Golden State of Mind answered some questions for us regarding an impassioned Warriors squad, Kawhi’s struggles and how to deal emotionally with blowing a 3-1 lead in the Finals.
The Raptors were three minutes away from an NBA Championship before Nick Nurse called a timeout that seemingly stymied Kawhi’s rhythm, spurring a Warriors comeback en route to a 1-point loss. Folks, this one hurt.
Thankfully, we got to speak to Jannelle Moore of Golden State of Mind about how Torontonians can stay calm right now, Kawhi’s off-night and what stirs the Warriors’ passionate play:
After Game 5, Klay Thompson went on record saying the Warriors were playing for KD, who went down with an unfortunate achilles injury. The Warriors had faced internal strife all year - how do you think this renewed sense of purpose will change the series, if at all?
This renewed sense of purpose will change the series by giving the Warriors momentum. What we as fans sometimes forget is that momentum is the intangible that can change the trajectory of the series. The win plus KD’s injury is enough momentum for the Warriors to change the series because they will use this injury as a rallying point. Now they have an extra incentive to fight.
HQ’s Take: The Warriors looked especially energized last game, but I credit their shot making and tremendous defensive effort more than any other factors. Even before Durant left the game, this team looked focused in a way I hadn’t seen since the third quarter of Game 2. They were screening like crazy off the ball, leading to some squeaky-clean looks from Steph, Klay and Durant. The Raptors left Draymond wide open, which is usually a good idea, but he made them pay. Essentially, no matter what Toronto did on defense, Golden State just nailed their shots. Sometimes, it simply comes down to that.
Aside from his 10 point takeover in the 4th quarter, Kawhi Leonard had one of his worst games of the post-season. How did the Warriors slow him down, and what can Kawhi do to take control next game?
The Warriors slowed Kawhi down without doubling him. Klay and others were solid defending him. As far as adjustments are concerned, he can put the ball on the floor and drive more. Command a double team and continue to trust his teammates to knock down open shots.
HQ’s Take: The Warriors — especially Andre Iguodala — played very tight on Kawhi, leaving him with very little space to maneuver. Occasionally, he managed to use crafty footwork to split a double team, but Golden State generally played him brilliantly. They rushed to the spots on the floor where Kawhi likes to operate and smothered him, stripping the ball away on multiple occasions. It’s difficult to come up with a perfect solution for these issues considering Kawhi’s nursing an injury, but it would help if he demonstrated more explosiveness next game. When Kawhi’s able to lose a defender early in a possession, the entire floor shifts towards him. This, in turn, creates more open shots for Lowry and Gasol, assuming they’re running some off-ball action to free themselves up on the perimeter.
How did the Bay Area fanbase feel when the Warriors blew a 3-1 lead in the Finals? Seeing as the Raptors are facing a similar situation, what advice do you have for Torontonians to keep their cool?
Warriors fans felt shocked and hurt after squandering the 2016 finals. My advice to Raptor fans is if they happen to lose, it’s better to vent in the immediate aftermath. Afterwards, compartmentalize. You have to keep it in perspective that it’s a game, number one. Number two, it’s a game that you’re not even playing in. Also, take away the positives from the season. The Raptors are a damn good team that hustled their way through the East. They have the depth and are tough defensively. They have all the tools to be contenders for a while. That’s worth taking solace in.
HQ’s Take: I don’t know if I can contribute much of an answer to this one considering I’m a Raptors fan (clearly) and I’ve never been in this situation before. But, I will say, is anyone else less nervous about Game 6 than Game 5? Last game’s crowd-silencing ending broke me in a specific way that no other Raptors moment ever has. Plus, it didn’t feel like the Raptors would win after KD went down anyway — watching the game after that just felt a bit… gross. It wasn’t meant to be. However, now that things have calmed down a bit, I suppose anything’s possible.
The Golden State Warriors extended the NBA Finals to Game 6 with a 106-105 road win over the Toronto Raptors on Monday night, improving to 5-1 straight up and 4-1-1 against the spread in their last six games on the road. The Warriors hope to build on that win and to keep their season alive with another win over the Raptors on Thursday night at home.
Golden State is a 2.5-point home favorite on the NBA odds in Oakland at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. In their first two home games of this series, the Warriors lost as 3-point favorites in Game 3 and as 5-point favorites in Game 4.

Golden State Warriors Betting Notes
Kevin Durant returned for the Warriors in Game 5 and didn’t look like a player that had missed a month of action. He hit a three-pointer on his first shot of the game and went on to score 11 points through his first 12 minutes of play. But then disaster struck as Durant fell to the floor with what ended up being a ruptured Achilles tendon on the same leg on which he had his original calf injury.
Golden State powered through the rest of the game without him with Steph Curry leading the way with 31 points to eventually escape with a 106-105 win, but the mood in the locker room after this one was somber after Durant’s devastating injury.
The Warriors are now 6-1 SU in their last seven postseason games when facing elimination.
Toronto Raptors Betting Notes
Kawhi Leonard had another strong performance in Game 5, shaking off a slow start to dominate the game in the fourth quarter to give his team a late 103-97 lead. But in the end, the Raptors couldn’t close out the game as Steph Curry and Klay Thompson combined for three straight three-pointers down the stretch to steal the win.
Toronto is 7-2 SU and ATS over its last nine games per the OddsShark NBA Database and has two more chances to close out this series.
Raptors at Warriors Betting Total
Thursday night’s total is set at 211.5 points. The UNDER is 4-2-1 in Toronto’s last seven games.
