NBA...NBA...sounds familiar. Does that have something to do with minor league bowling?

How many basketball fans know that Toronto has an NBA franchise? Seriously, part of it could be not being familiar with the Raptors.

Nobody but Warriors fans want the Warriors to win the series, and they certainly don’t care for a team from Canada.

Be ironic if the Raptors win the Title.

That would mean since the last time a Canadian Team won The Stanley Cup, the Blue Jays (1993) and the Raptors will have won titles.

I’m not watching but I would hope for Toronto to win because I am pretty sick of the curry character and his arrogance...but I love Klay Thompson...

O’Brien was Postmaster General.

Toronto may win an NBA title before the Stanley Cup
(their last being 52 years ago).

At least Toronto may go the White House if they win.

Most expected another Warriors rout, I suspect.

Basketball season is still on? Who knew?

Now Women's National Basketball playoffs might be interesting, but how long until the sport was fully dominated by transgender "women"?

Nothing is sacred any more.

Without Durant? No way.

” . . . first NBA Finals game to see a non-American team win.”

That sort of statement never fails to amuse me - gotta hand it to Toronto in how they were able to get a team of the very best Canadian basketball players to show those Yanks how the game should be played

Well, James Naismith was Canadian, after all.

So are you trying to say that the Raptors aren’t a Canadian team because most of their players aren’t Canadian (a number aren’t American, either). So, by that standard, are the Boston Bruins not an American NHL team?

For me, first game of seven fatigue.

First game is near meaningless. Now, the second game is important, the team behind is under serious pressure as their odds for a championship dwindle if down 0-2.

So, I may watch the second game.

I hope Trump invites the Raptors to the Whitehouse should they win. Delicious.
