And yes, that was a questionable timeout.

He's great. He makes an impact. Just not to the level of KD. Is that debatable? I've been a fan of Ibaka since OKC. When did I ever mock him? And Van Vleet..... I do jokingly mock Van Vleet but let's just say i've probably won more money wagering with Van Vleet, as a Shocker, than you've made wagering in sports in your entire life. I'm a pro at this. You're a fanboy who thought yoy were gonna cash a Raptors future tonight and you're butthurt. And nervous. Be patient. Have confidence in your team. They'll probably pull it out in 6. I joke around and talk hoop with you guys because I know it but this garbage is peanuts to me. As I said, by the time the NBA playoffs roll around, i'm already capping baseball and studying up on football. You're a weekend warrior who ramps his action up for the playoffs. I'm a pro that knows what the difference is between a NBA finals game wager and a regular season Patriot league game wager. There is no difference. The money is all the same.

I ve been betting for 15 years kid, I ve been heavy + in NBA & MLB for 5 years now.

You are an emotional fanboy, I ve been around this too long....your kind never win in the long run in this business.

I'm an emotional fanboy? I didn't wager on this game, haven't wagered on basketball since Game 2, and slept through the first half. I love my teams but I really don't care. I'm trying to get my wife ready for back surgery. I really don't care about this series anymore. You, on the other hand, you literally created a thread, this thread, to cry about a time out. The next time you're gonna call someone emotional, or a fanboy, just remind yourself that you creating a whining thread about a timeout and realize that you don't have a leg to stand on.

Raptors up 6, with the ball and all the momentum. Warriors looked completely gassed and were falling apart....calling that timeout gave them a chance to regroup and allowed a lethally experienced team to execute down the stretch.

Warriors escaped with some shooting luck and bad decisions by the Raptors down the stretch, I think this goes 7 now and it ll be a close one.

I was watching with my buddy and he loves the Warriors and I hate them and I turned to him immediately and was like "why in the hell did he just do that, he giving yall a chance to win now"

so Mfin stupid

Raptors were up by 6 with 3 minutes remaining and had all the momentum. Terrible clock management by Nick Nurse AKA Andy Reid that could cost the Raptors an NBA Championship. new_smoking

Was there not a few possessions after they went up 6 before the timeout?

The Raptors lost the game. The time out was a bad time to call it. I just have to give the splash brothers credit. They are the best shooting back court of all time. Curry and Thompson made huge 3s that's what they do. The Warriors are Champs. They will not go down without a fight. Durant or no Durant they are still capable of winning the series. The Raptors didnt play well especially the turnovers and shooting of Siakam and Leonard was atrocious. They better play better defense or this will go seven and that's anyone's game.
