The ball was only stolen because KD was going down.... Nah....ain’t buying the spin from Canada. When it was apparent that KD was down the cheering continued...despite the motions by Raptor players to tell the crowd to cut it out.

Raptors just gave away that game.

And, what a sh!tty last shot.

I’ll be surprised if the Raptors take the championship.

They are just too hot and cold. Hot and cold.

Golden State will blow them out in Game Six.

That was a great game. The Warriors showed a ton of heart, after the heartbreak of Durant going down again. Durant himself obviously came back too soon from injury, in a bid to help his team - hopefully his injury is not severe enough to impact the start of next season for him (wherever that may be).

This is the kind of game that makes watching sports worthwhile - the extraneous stuff about politics and what not had nothing to with the heart and determination the players showed on the court. There will be one last game in Oakland for the Warriors, and they'll be missing both Durant and starting center Kevon Looney, who re-aggravated his cracked sternum. The Warriors are playing with a ton of injuries but they're showing the hearts of champs. Time to see if I can get tickets.

At least now Golden State knows Durant won’t be back, and they know what they must do.

Toronto just did what the Texas Rangers did in Game Six against the Cardinals.

I don’t think they come back from this.

It’s being reported that Durant suffered an Achilles injury - hopefully not a tear, which could put him out for much of next season. He put millions of dollars on the line to come back and play tonight. Ultimate respect and best wishes for KD.

I think Golden State is too beaten up to come back from a 3-1 hole. Toronto still has Kawhi Leonard dominating, and with Durant out, Kawhi is the best player on the floor. At least there will be one more game at Oakland, and hopefully the Warriors can close out the old arena with a great game.

San Antonio Spurs coach/GM Greg Popovich is farther
left than Kerr by quite a bit it seems.

The refs did their best for the Raptors near the end of the game, but the Raptors really misplayed the last 10 seconds by passing the ball around the outside of the 3-point line when all they needed was a 2-pointer or to draw a shooting foul for two free throws. Thursday in Oakland is going to be rough on them. I see things going back to Toronto on Sunday.

Kevin Durant has Achilles injury as Warriors GM bares soul: ‘Blame me’

Bob Myers holds back emotion as he shares that KD's injury is to his Achilles. He does not yet know the severity. pic.twitter.com/uhAbcpQ4Qv— NBA on TNT (@NBAonTNT) June 11, 2019

It looks bad. Bob Myers was crying... he knows the severity of it based off of how emotional he was. It’s not minor, it’s major.

Durant's post on Instagram:

"I'm hurting deep in the soul right now, I can't lie, but seeing my brothers get this win was like taking a shot of tequila, I got new life."

Durant is going to get an outpouring of love and appreciation from Warriors fans that will probably last him through the end of his days. He's now entered the pantheon of beloved Bay Area sports figures, no matter where his next team is.

Bob Myers was crying...

I saw that pathetic display. I mean, what the what?! There’s no crying in basketball. Seriously, a grown man might cry upon the death of family member or get choked up when his daughter gets married or something like that... but crying because KD hurt his achilles tendon? Really? Get a gripe, Myers, and rethink your priorities in life.
