    This was the JR Smith game. So is it 5 games or do we have a series

    Probably have a series, but LIPO.

    A wise man once told me the series doesn't begin until the road team wins a game.

    Sounded like everything went right for the Dinos and wrong for the Warriors

    There’s only cause for concern for the Warriors if they don’t get the split

    I do not agree with this assessment at all. I thought Toronto was just better.

    It’s game one, long way to go. The series hasn’t even officially started yet. But I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s about as good as Golden States offense gets and I wouldn’t be surprised if they just aren’t a great defense with Igoudala gimpy and Durant out.

    Toronto absolutely mauled the Warriors with a very physical game and double teamed Curry. I expect the Ws to adjust to both and find lots of chances to get Klay wide open 3 point shots.

    But if Klay isn't hot then this could be a very tough match up for GS.

    Yeah the Toronto D is legit. 6 games in a row now. Once upon a time the Cavs shut GS down in a similar fashion

    The Warriors shot under 44% ... credit Toronto’s D but the Warriors will not only shoot better as the series progresses but will start finding some easier shots.

    Toronto shooting over 50% with all the role players going off is what Toronto needs yet that game was winnable for the Warriors in the 4th.

    Simply put the Warriors just need to clean up in transition, play some better D, and eliminate the lucky shots that Toronto got.

    Klay needs to be a little better offensively, but he wasn’t terrible numbers wise. The Warriors efficiency (109 points on 78 FG attempts isn’t terrible).

    KD is getting a ring if the Warriors lose according to the morning after over reaction.

    Best case now is the Warriors go up 3-1 then bring KD back to close it out and lose three straight

    Boogie will be a factor now that he has his game legs and Kerr will shorten the bench and Klay will come out of nowhere like he does once a year to save the day
