the Toronto Raptors are back in Oakland against the Golden State Warriors as we welcome you to the NBA finals presented by YouTube TV the pans ready certainly in Toronto out of Jurassic Park just outside of Scotiabank arena mawhonic nurse and his team getting ready in the Raptor locker room they're cutting hard were cutting harder that were chasing harder okay dogged determination to limit the touches and the shot attempts and the kick outs make lay make it play make another play make an effort it's everybody's job everybody that steps out there takes the responsibility for a second chance for them to win a championship Lucy look at our starting lineups delivered by Taco Bell Rutgers stick with the same starting five that's been so strong so impressive throughout the plows Golden State with their fifth different starting lineup in six finals game upon looming getting his first start of the playoffs this year and boy do they want to send this arena home with a great performance this crowd fired up to start little better energy the games three and four different crowd passionate and warns with a sense of urgency the souls stripped by draymond Green back out to Lowry course Toronto won the two games James dreamed for near an Oracle the silence described as Lowry scores the first bucket well they don't want him to get to his left but he is absolutely destroying the Golden State centers on switches beating them off the dribble draymond Green puts it on the floor finds loony Louie playing despite that injury curry throws it up top the green and green throws it away that's what coach was talking about nope that's a wide-open shot with draymond Green defense to get yourself going early by looking to shoot it all the warriors coming off one of the all-time flex Finals games in NBA history with that scintillating last two and a half minutes to keep their season alive Kyle laughs what a start a layup with a three-pointer in Toronto up 500 theg ence Looney draymond Green no hesitation that time and misses Danny Green with a rebound dropped was actually three and oh this year in this building the one time they plays a regular season they won again Lowry Kyle Lowry three for three to start it's eight nothing I'm so glad I talked about Carla Lowry being Robin and open just makes sense he's got to be in attack mode especially when you realized this switching if it matched him for him that fits him perfectly coach he doesn't this was the toughest shot but Green gave him a cushion he had confidence and he knocked it in and here again Looney switches he's late on the closeout and Lowry knocks down the Jay that fouls on Pascal sake and another turnover [Applause] Lowrey to Leonard Leonard for three that one in now and a loose ball foul I believe is going to be calming up they're going to say just out of bounds so we'll go the other way Larry had one of his best games of the playoffs in Game three of the twenty three point game that was overshadowed by the incident with the minority owner in that altercation but he was fabulous that night in his building Louie gets inside good action that's all set up by Steph Curry's moving without the basketball and Looney with the easy dunk Danny Green off the dribble a home team in these finals are an incredible one and for the last four row teams have one in the series Larry lining it up here on the first two plus minutes he's got 11 points already he keeps this up he's going to be Prime Minister [Applause] four for four overall three for three from downtown Looney with eight to shoot gets into the paint goes right up Seattle gets his own rebound back out Iguodala the God Allah drives down [Music] they need someone to score in the frontcourt egg with Dahlan green I don't care if they drive it like this shoot the three or take mid-range jumpers we saw it early they cannot turn down open opportunities or curry and Thompson will never get the looks that they want Toronto turns it over big-time finish avoiding the block of Makkah Solon is the bounce off the glass Steph Curry siakam didn't go for the fake curry gets inside and he lifted his pivot foot traveling violation that's already three turnovers on Golden State and it's because of how crowded the floor is because there's three guys that they're helping off of on the two guards I think Steve Kerr is going to be forced to either go with cousins or Quinn cook here soon ask LC Akuma's draymond Green on it's been a fun matchup to watch these two siakam spins green right there double-team Lowry gets into the paint again dodge knocked away had stolen the defensive diamond draymond Green Pines Looney will be blocked by siakam but a goaltend and that's how grandma dream can impact the game on the offensive end getting stops and initiating offense in transition that time finding loony with the right read well Steve curb so one of the reasons he started loony he's her best center right now and a good start tonight was imperative as siakam drills the three-pointer they've hit four threes already person game five the three-pointer destroyed them because of the 23 s by Golden State curry won't go over the foul and free throws for Steph Curry Lowry making the play again he could have pulled up he's on fire instead turns it down fine siakam all by himself in that corner knocks down the long ball I like defensively for the Raptors right now I like quiet Lana taking the challenge of defending klay Thompson enough is enough I can take this guy out of the picture you guys do the rest with Steph Curry that foul is on Kyle Lowry love the Warriors can win on force game seven it will be Sunday night back in Toronto little earlier start coverage against with NBA countdown at 7:30 on ABC tipoff shortly after 8:00 p.m. on Sunday as curry hits the free-throw you know it's a ciacco shot that's big after school hitting a couple threes in Game one he had not shot the three at all well and they're going to leave him open he had missed his last 12 three-pointers before that one as klay Thompson deflects it out Raptors to trying to say kickball reset the shot clock the 14 right now it's a 10 Nick nurse sang it the entire Toronto team it stays at 10 to shoot [Applause] Oh eyeliner double-team siakam calling for no hesitation Stouffer - from downtown what shooting to start the game for the Raptors you interrupted you could not have asked for better stone carry draymond Green Iguodala tries a three Lowry again pushing the pace like he's done the entire series siakam Green trying to push the pace as well [Applause] nice ball movement from Golden State finished off by Iguodala nice play by Green and good movement by Iguodala to get to his spot and elevate CR from looking a post draymond Green nice spin move layup won't go leave out taken by Iguodala big Adal ago still rim missed it tip by Thompson is good flowery to Gasol he gets past Looney and Looney grabbed him so Looney will pick up his first and we'll take our first timeout a frenetic pace to start because all the 12 minutes the Warriors are playing without their best player that is the play in Game five where Kevin Durant ruptured his Achilles he has already had successful surgery our Adrian Waldron our ski reporting earlier today that Kevin likely to miss all of next year just moments ago on the jumbotron they were talking about Kevin Durant [Applause] he has so many athletes too and said today we would not be in this position if it were not for Kevin Durant and his sacrifices he is the reason we have most of the Oracle Arena and then he reached out to the fans and he said let's lay it all out for the 47 years and honor this beautiful building and our teammate Mike plenty to play for for the Warriors Thank You Doris emotions obviously so high guys the last 48 hours that's been the number one talk in sports the debate should have played in that game the other night well I don't know any of the medical stuff and I wasn't obviously that's the often gets it done we weren't privy to all the things that was told the one thing I resent more than anything is the implication that because he played he showed heart and grit and toughness because that implies that if he hadn't played he wouldn't have shown that heart greatness and toughness that he's shown throughout his career so I just disagreed with so many of the that's around Durant and his character and I look at it and the troops should have been told from day one whatever the situation was it was said that he could not get any worse it did so they're wrong but what I will point the finger at is Kevin Durant and what I mean by that is refreshing to see a guy and at the end of the day it boiled down to he was a Hooper he was a guy that wanted to get back on the fall and was willing to risk it all and talking to Kevin Durant's camp they're fine with what took place because he left it out on the floor and he should be applauded and his crowd base is sending in love his way let him know we're thinking and praying for Boston on the siakam slam the Thompson three and it's a four-point lead just past the midway point here in the first in jolin's state win another title without Kevin Durant here in the finals Leonard gets inside goes reverse backs at home Kawhi Leonard's first bucket the world a half way into this first quarter and Steph Curry has not had a field goal attempt yet just the two free throws Andrew Bogut's come in for the first time throws that one up just soul the rebound Bogut falls down they've got numbers this way Wow he tries to pass layup won't go but McKinney Alfonso McKinney bumped him and Lowery's gonna go to the free-throw line off to an unbelievable start he's backing it in the post he sees the double-team he spins away shows the shot and a beautiful left-hand reverse dial re at 18 points in Game five had a chance to win it at the buzzer but draymond Green got a piece of it as he gets the first and we remind you this week's detail with Kobe Bryant on ESPN Plus featuring the breakdown on the Raptors pass Kelsey Ockham's performance in game five start your free trial of ESPN plus tonight by downloading the ESPN app or visiting ESPN plus calm Lowry said one of the things helped him get over the loss in Game five his son Carter one athlete of the year and the Chess Championship his 7 year old the kids always help out klay Thompson pull-up 2.0 that's Gary Thompson has been magnificent since returning from that hamstring injury that caused him to miss Game three Fred vans leaves the sole left wide open and draymond Green looking to push again now beats it back to curry ball deflected by Leonard Green's can go on the back court to get it Thompson pulled back reporter bucks it in play Thompson on fire here on the first corner VanFleet answers back Fred vanvleet with the sixth three-pointer of the opening period for Toronto and we still have over four minutes to play unbelievable shooting green Bogut can't handle it [Applause] the soul clear path and a blocking foul as he goes down hard free throws from arch kosoul turnovers the Golden State have been a problem we've got five already we see Marc Gasol going down the paint Kenny comes over trying to take the charge it's a good foul not allowing him a direct line drive but got to get back in transition he came all the way from half court fortunately the Warriors Killington the line for two Gasol was talking about after that tough loss in Game five he said the first six to twelve hours are awful you keep thinking about different plays that would have made a difference what if he says but the key to this team is their maturity they're able to refocus their experience their veterans most of the team and that maturity has them ready and confident once again and what I love most about that maturity that mature didn't did not hang their coach out to dry but they could have been pointing fingers why I call a timeout when everybody was calling the Nick nurse making a mistake in their opinion this team stayed loyal dedicated and true to their leader in the student I'm whenever you can coach backwards it's easy so they didn't get the shot they wanted nor the stops they wanted and so it's easy to point to a timeout called or not called it's I think they treated it just right that it was nonsense at first trying to become the latest rookie head coach to wear the titles having a punch recently obviously Steve Kerr in 2015 tyronn lue in 2016 and it could happen again here in 2019 the soul goes 1 for 2 and Ibaka comes in at the 4 cousins is in as well draymond Green can't finish McKinney to Thompson DeMarcus Cousins had it and lost it the soul to leonard van fleet sets up a three DeMarcus Cousins getting a big opportunities waited his whole career to get to the playoffs was hurt miss 45 days and now this the biggest game of his NBA career Perry feet inside cousins answers I like the Curry's not trying to do too much early on in this ballgame we saw him get 47 and it drained him physically and they're also they're sending two guys on him every time he touches the ball mark or another timeout Raptors shooting but they're only up for the final night NBA basketball Oracle Arena first great success al attles of a 75 championship team with Rick Barry run TFC Chris Mullins in the building tonight as is Vince Carter without amazing Duncan with a gun time some contest and of course this five-year span early LeBron James spoil it with a victories 2016 but after back-to-back championships they have an opportunity to win three in a row they're still alive now four here in this opening period and Oracle once again had a lot of names Darius they've had a lot of games in this building over the years a lot of great memories 40 set of incredible seasons not all winning seasons that's for sure they have their droughts lots of youth the fans came here to watch the visiting stars the lawyers in a zones for the first time VanFleet gets a good look that one in and out and you say why would they go zone it's taken the Raptors out of high pick-and-roll exposing DeMarcus Cousins it allows him to stay on the court cousins Munson's have some good minutes early in Game five was really a boost after Durant went out at 14 points the most he scored in the playoff game and that's good coaching by Steve Kerr knowing that DeMarcus Cousins can be a force on the offensive end let me find a way to minimize him being a liability defensively and they're going back in the zone once again it's a little - one - that foul was on Kawhi Leonard we've seen a box in one from Toronto and now his old defense from the kauffman State Warriors trying new things here in the NBA Finals how about that to break rhythm [Applause] you gotta understand teams do not see much zones during a season in the history of the game when teams goes on offense they all of a sudden you just become tentative and you throw it around his own before you know it it's a bad possession and we've seen that thus far with the Raptors one of the things I love doing coach against his own is just running your man-to-man - absolutely and then get the ball to the middle of the floor Carrie comes off the screen VanFleet write-up interim Perry's beautiful feet inside cousins kicks it out green is left open after trailing by nine warriors with their first league zone once again Leonard triple-team Ibaka can't answer hurry the fake and a moving screen called against Golden State that's their sixth turnover draymond Green his first foul well good feed by curry two cousins and then green spotting up usually that's not his spot in the corner and that was close but they say he kept his foot behind the line and again once again they're going back to the zone print cook comes in for the first time klay Thompson will get his first rest Norman Powell on the floor for Toronto Leonard finds Lowry Larry's been hot that continues Kyle Lowry what a first quarter for Lowry 15 points coach talked about getting the basketball in the middle of the floor that time it was Marie just ended the drought that was as long as he's gone in his playoff career without knocking down the field goal he's inside the paint the bhaktas really come on in the last several games [Applause] very SAS slightly deflected cuz it's Pfizer three [Applause] and the 23-point has already taken here on this first quarter 21 here's what Steph Curry likes to go to for what he's thinking get a look Marie shot clock by Kawhi Leonard Lenard to the foul line line drive he drills it for his second field goal you see that little Jordan mesh shove with the right hand getting Iguodala off him and giving him some a spinners you sound like Byron Russell still complaining that's legal high scoring first quarter here in Game six there's the double again on curry gets away with a dribble slices inside and draws the foul my Allari tried to draw another charge instead he picks up his second personal here's what I'm talking about the move by quiet landed against andre igudala uses that left hand the shovel Maul creates the airspace uncontested mid-range jump shot that's tough to defend his ability to get to any place he wants on the floor and not with extreme quickness your switch smarts and wood strength she knows 14 games with 30 more eight of them have been on the road in fact some of their big road wins has been some of his best games now witnessed something in this Finals that I've never seen before system coach for the Toronto Raptors Jamaal McGaw the Glo former teammate of mine up standing yelling constantly but the difference is he's punched a hole in the bottom of a paper cup and uses it as a megaphone to give instructions and there it is I've never seen it before unbelievable that's old school that's not old school I don't know what that new school I have never seen that before [Applause] McClure who made an all-star team one year in his NBA career paths inside stolen by Thompson curry launches it 3/4 court that almost went in my and the first quarter comes to an end comes back by YouTube TV willing to see baka back from behind by cousins Lowery's file won't go and a foul you know Nick nurse grew up in Iowa is a huge Cubs fan him and his family and his dad used to drive the family five and a half hours to Cubs games to go watch Wrigley Field he said when the Cubs finally won the World Series it was one of the great sports memories of his life he has a chance to do the same thing helped Toronto Raptor fans and have a memory for life if they can win one of the next two games and provide them with their first-ever championship Lowery continues his offensive explosion he's averaging in the playoffs and in these finals just over 14 again he's got 17 points already and if I'm him I'm thinking look to attack was the first time we saw it as warrior lineup with two bigs on the Floyd cousins and Looney I'm pushing the basketball and forcing them to defend Livingston out there as well Looney gets a pass inside a nice adjustment from Livingston for his first bucket and that was a nice play by Looney off the dribble on the drop-off path as they really overextended their ball pressure you hear the term playing hurt Looney is playing hurry we've seen that ever since he injured his chest in Game two vans Lee tied up looking for Ibaka couldn't quite get it fourth turnover for Toronto Livingston stripped by Van Fleet defensive line Lowrey tax again lay up at that time a Thompson grabs it good job by looming sprinting back and not balance ball knocked out of bounds slope Thompson trying to claim last night by Toronto mark Davis's Raptor ball but that turnovers are mounting and this is when Golden State struggles on offense [Applause] siakam foul on Ibaka hit cousins in the head on that rebound first foul on Serge Ibaka and coach who get tricked into trying to play one-on-one against Luna he's an outstanding defendant he is the one big that the Warriors have that has the ability to switch and stay in front of smaller guys yeah very good feet and intelligent playing with a fractured cartilage in his first rim he was in such pain in Game five the other night almost another turnover cook comes up with it back to Looney what are you doing a lot of ball handling Thompson draws the foul let's see if they call it the active shooter you look like Mark Davis is calling it in the act of shooting and he's calling it a two-point shot [Applause] they're going to review so it is on a field goal attempt and just checking to see if his feet work beyond the arc or not who will help out tonight klay Thompson and Steph Curry so far cousins has done a nice job as as Looney how many minutes you think those five played together this season I would say it's less than 50 especially because cousins obviously missed a lot of the year but no question and now in the finals in an elimination game right because of other injuries late Thompson it's his first I don't know if you want to call him game 6 play as a nickname but he has had some of his most brilliant playoff performances in Game six of course 2016 when they were trailing OKC he had the 41 point game and then last year against Houston had a thirty five point game in an elimination game how durable he is we forget he was hurt he was hobbled early in the series Dorman panel drives left-handed all blocked by Thompson just over two minutes gone by here in the second it's been quite a pace here as a start Thompson on the pull-up Lowery the rebound deflected by cousins dives to say that he does but it's Toronto vol Ibaka goes at loonies little jump hook is good and cousin slow to get up think he knocked over some water and he hit his back on the chair and his hand on his back when he first got up great hustle by him though diving towards a loose ball and saving her boys waited nine years to finally make the postseason then he got hurt in the second game of the opening round so desperate to get back on the floor cousins drives at Ibaka layup badges it's good for cousins bhakta kicks it out see Ockham's wide open and after missing 12 straight three-pointers in these finals he's 3 for 4 tonight and Nick nurse is continually upset when they're shooting corner threes that the warrior bench he believes he's interfering with his judo Livingston lost it Thompson hazard shot clock at five back to Livingston inside Looney through fakes to the layup won't go [Applause] siakam drives on cook finds Ibaka but right through his hands Lowrey VanFleet three-pointer got it second 3/4 of a man flee ninth of the game for Toronto and timeout Golden State a wild first half parrot Oracle and they're going crazy in Toronto back at Oracle wrap this up five and it's the extra pass patience on the offenses getting into the scenes and then making the proper reach good old-fashioned game of pool three Ball corner pocket unselfishness by Ibaka again almost a turnover look at Kyle Lowry has every right the way he's playing the shoot in rhythm instead turns it down rewards his teammate that's tell our offense and Jurassic Park back in Toronto in Jordan a while here at Oracle Steph Curry draymond Green back in jet that lineup you talked about with cousins Looney Thompson cook from Livingston and one of our graphic mavens named Ferguson check it out they had never played together a second all season [Applause] Thompson inside Livingston to Greene extra pass play tots are looking for a spot inside the Livingston Lowery closes livingston jean shorts book tell you what you cannot play defense better than a jazz player that is outstanding defense individually and collectively I allow seventeen points five assists five rebounds and one a for half into the second five to shoot man bleep the runner in the paint that won't go Livingstone tips it but brought back to Van Vliet see up come another three more than half their field goal attempts have been from free curry to loony the Golic state 17 of their 32 draymond Green to Looney and that happens because Steph Curry runs off the down screen and both guys go to him without the ball that's the type of respect he Garner's coming off pendens draymond Green six assists already five on the 24 Gasol against Sunni makes him take a typical shot the sole is over for pass deflected by leonard thompson posting up [Applause] damn fleet Klay Thompson's going to be called for his first vows going to be the third team foul against Golden State reminder

flips it up and again Lowrey the shot would not have counted before the shot it's going to be against play Thompson that's two fouls now on klay Thompson well curry again moving well without the ball takes advantage of Gasol being a little bit back and then gets him on his hip creates a little space and hits a really difficult mid-range leaner nine points for Steph Curry 12 for klay Thompson the

Lowry deflects it out of bounds see I'm so good at pushing the basketball as a defend his on his heels use that upper body strength to eliminate to contest and is just him in the basket with the finish he's got 13 points he had good games in games three and four here in this building of course he had that thirty two point game in Game one Thompson one dribble and foul on a three-point attempt Marc Gasol not happy with the call as he picks up his second personal we've seen this movie from fall coach the mistakes made valley in bad situations you've done your job he's useless and you can test as sending a knockdown shooter to the line for three that was a foul they Thompson see his numbers she's averaging 25 a game in these finals 57% from three-point range and then throwing that

and acknowledge the Warriors have no business in this series right now when you look top to bottom talent when you look at being hurt short-handed they have willed themselves to a game 6 and continue in the fight even with three all-stars with curry Thompson and draymond Green they got two threats on the offensive end in curry and Thompson I wouldn't I would say I would add besides will I would say skilled their way because of the elite shooting and greens passing but they are unlimited offensive teams wait Thompson's got 15 warriors up by two under four to play here the first half big Adama guarding letters another dangerous pass Green's pass to Ibaka and serge ibaka with six points off the bench that's good defense by the Warriors they're making them fight the score of you've asked the vodka now out of an island against Thompson gets past him dolla no hesitation his three-pointer misses see automatic knocked out of bounds still wrapped their ball coach Sam is showing you how much trust Steve Kerr has indicated he's worked his way his head coach trusting him and going to him comfortable and think about didn't play in the last game but and for rebounding siakam nice penetration

willingly just giving it up Green gets a dunk there he's only taken five shots here in the first half Lowry to Ibaka and Serge Ibaka big boost off the bench for Toronto McKinney's getting beat off the dribble he's got to keep the ball in front of them and behind him no shot blocker extremely small and Ibaka diving is a tough task pass deflected off of play Thompson Toronto will get it back Serge Ibaka third straight game in double figures he had 20 points in Game four 15 in Game five and already with 10 here in Game six [Applause] while energy he does just six points here in the first half he's only taking six shots [Applause] that one comes up short mega dollar with the rebound and a loose ball foul called on Kawhi Leonard that's going to be his second [Applause] very nearly dribble it off his foot gets the passing Adama open for three Lowrey floats it up and in nineteen point six assists for Lowrey here in the first half what a performance from the veteran point guard I love it because he's thinking school out of that pickle row action they want legged dollar 11 points come on Looney inside double team triple team gets it out to draymond Green Green to Iguodala the veteran whip the left hand won't go Looney gets it reads hips it back out curry dances inside flips it up fight for the rebound see Jakob to Leonard letter and the foul these two teams getting after it here in the second quarter as Toronto goes up by three while any caught that basketball in transition like a great wide receiver look at the hands smart play by siakam throwing it back and then lent it the catch the ability to finish off of the catch with the contact [Applause] eight points for Kawhi Leonard and statin Toronto back up by four bio minute second quarter I tell you what coach I love the way that Steph Curry has played this first half it's almost like he's looking to when to pick his spots when to be aggressive but he is moving it out the basketball putting his teammates in position to be spoiled klay Thompson 3-pointer and it's against Kawhi Leonard who picks up his third personal [Applause] again they've called it fairly consistently the entire year protecting the jump shooter this should not come as a surprise in the finals that these are being called whether you as a player agree with them or not on the interpretation you have to adapt and adjust but he hits him on the wrist after the release there was contact there they allow hand to hand on the release what they call a high-five but not hand to elbow and Thompson piling up the points Nick nurse obviously upset his star player now with three personal fouls and klay Thompson with three free throws you're gonna warriors you gotta like where you are right now especially looking at the Raptors stop with Kyle Lowry and the supporting cast got it going the warrior that fought scratched and clawed and find their way back into this ball game 18 points for klay Thompson a floury to the basket parents at home Kyle Lowry sensational he's got 21 because he allowed it to roll all the way up he was able to preserve the two for one about a four and a half difference between the shot clock and game clock [Applause] sorry again gets in the paint but his past alone he goes awry and that's the tenth turnover for the Warriors no fouls to give the Golden State [Applause] Lowrey pulls back three-pointer Harry hasn't launches for three-quarters court and a while first half comes to an end one that had 14 lead changes pow Lowry with 21 first half points including four threes klay Thompson continued his torrid shooting here in the final two quarters complete Game six Toronto by three [Music] - Steve Kerr did he want to see anything different with Steph Curry as much attention as they're giving him does he like the way he's playing he said he's got to trust the past more he feels like he's playing he goes on the stage bang adores all season long this Raptors defense has been excellent and in the playoffs as well most games holding opponents under 45% they've held opponents under 100 points a number of times they've done a very good job on the best offensive team in the NBA the Golden State Warriors they did the same thing against the other great offensive team Milwaukee in the conference finals and the Raptors again starting VanFleet Leonard since he has three is guarding Iguodala putting Lowry on Thompson white Leonard the only player with three personals nice feed from curry good rotation there from the Raptors Mansley goes for the fake curry can't connect Murray 1 for 5 from three-point range [Applause] van fleet had a good first half gets a good look there and throws it 820 serve and fleet and that's a good screen and actually step car you hobbled off with a stream by maka soul Van Fleet thought he got hit there tried to plead his case klay Thompson little fake gets rid of siakam and that won't fall to good looks first from Korea Thompson [Applause] Leonard Tribble tender with TT VanFleet late whistle but a foul curry hit him man fleet trying to say in the act of shooting but they're gonna take it on the side as the screen I'm talking about well done by maka soul solid screen and Steph Curry after the screen grabbing that right thigh obviously in this conference the sole fix Leonard on a pull-up baseline jumper will go draymond Green with his tenth rebound already and Kyle Lowry called for a foul that's going to be three on Lowry so Lowry and Leonard each with three personals for Toronto and when Lowry's guarding Thompson Thompson is trying to get to the post here running ceiling early and Lowry called for the foul both backcourt for Toronto they're only six feet Lowry and Dan fleet 20 points klay Thompson we've got so much better at putting the ball on a deck and making the play for himself I wasn't one of his strong points early on in his career see Optimus floats it up and in Pascal SIOC going over straw game this young star from Cameroon has 15 points curry long distance that goes curry his second three-pointer [Applause] Curren chasing Fred vanvleet and please it's inside black from behind by curry pass deflected but curry comes up with it Thompson off the dribble to the rack layup is good Davis Steph Curry picks up his second foul second team foul both VanFleet shoots a floater curry gets a little deflection and then Thompson drove it for the transition bucket VanFleet inside siakam quick release Gasol the rebound out to Leonard Leonard good luck he gets a free first three-pointer of the game for Kawhi Leonard but the 10th for Toronto how many times in this series have we seen both teams capitalize off of offensive rebound shooting the three-point shot Barry there's the double-team again leaving Iguodala wide open that time can't answer Leonard didn't have a big scoring night in Game five until that two-minute stretch of the fourth quarter step slides family and curry just picked up his third foul [Applause] crowd thought there should have been a jump ball or a travel something on Kawhi Leonard when he was defended down low he was able to get out of that mess and swing the ball and then this happened that looks like a clean swipe by curry no that's his third personal an advanced leap [Applause] this was so well defended the ball did come out of Lennart an Larry picks up three thousand two and a half minutes five players for Toronto in double figures that's for the case every night they average six in double figures Iguodala inside the loonies can't finish but draymond Green right there and that's the difference between Looney and cousins loonies struggling to finish around the rim cousin just finishing well Leonard finishes it gets hit and a chance for a three-point play and it's gone Leonard starting to come alive scoring wise a bad job by klay Thompson not staying in front of quadlin and allowing him to get to that right hand and he gets side by side with you game is over Looney comes over but it doesn't matter that's grown man strength by qilin Leonard once again raising his game in the playoffs and as we said he's had some enormous performances on the road the game floor against Philly in Philly has 39 Game five in Milwaukee at 35 he had two 30-point games here in Oracle as Curry's foul before the shot and they'll take a side out a six point Toronto lead curry thought that should have been in the active shooting [Applause] now regarding klay Thompson C ocular doll a little fake now pull up two pointer rebound deflected out of bounds and go to the state will get the ball back 14 on the shot clock good read defensively by marker so not allowing klay Thompson to play one-on-one on the poles against Kyle Lowry forcing him to get rid of the basketball [Music] now Lowry switches on Andre Iguodala tries to take advantage gets to the rim and a foul call if that song gets sold yep that's his third coach I like what I'm doing dollars doing though not falling in love with the jump shot that's not his shrimp so he's putting the ball on the deck and looking to be aggressive as a squirrel or as a playmate and they're doing more switching off the ball to take away to catch and shoot looks of curry versus what they were doing in the previous five game was just having VanFleet chase the entire time hi andre igudala little role he has played throughout these years for the Warriors in Game six the clincher against Houston when Kevin Durant is the first game after the calf injury he hit five threes had 17 points he's got 12 points tonight Steve Kerr calls out a zone and you see the Warriors go back in a 2-3 zone four to one to zona Jensen wrap the team dansleep tries to beat the zone can't hit it they get out of the same [Applause] curry leans in gets an open look and hits the food the soul till our Lauer into the basket tipped right to siakam Lowery step behind the arc three-quarter ball loose Iguodala comes out so the basket blocked from behind but a foul [Applause] he's pleading his case with David country looks like you found them timeout while the Raptors once again they're balanced just in the first four games of the finals they've had seven different players score 17 points or more and that's been noticed by the Golden State Warriors the Warriors talking about that draymond Green says every night it's someone else besides Kauai who helps him out Steph Curry says they have five guys on the court at all time who could shoot and score as Iguodala misses the free throws he's 1 for 4 years really struggled from the free-throw line in the playoffs 41% double play on the floor right now you got to realize time and situation both teams in the bonus it's a great time they look to attack if you get to the free-throw line and defensively show your hands and make them make shots over the top see outcome tough play and he backs it home from straight on Green was all over them he was not good in Game five but he has been terrific here in Game six got 17 I allowed on the bench for probably a while with the fourth house Danny Green is back in Steph Curry the Gazala left open gaddama mrs. to Fritos and then comes back foot a three-pointer 15 pin points for Andre Iguodala he's been used tonight understands he's got to be aggressive if he has not disappointed they complete the Greens Danny Green's to siakam four to shoot she Optum gets away from a double-team what a nice move from Pascal siakam he's spicy Pete tonight Jeff seid is living up to his nickname Murray stolen by Danny Green Leonard throws it up with see Occam's pop catch any up to throw it away Thompson laundry [Applause] klay Thompson in the zone all series and these are the times where klay Thompson doesn't see anybody else on the floor it's all about him again I love fakes the three he goes across the lane come on Looney to Seoul right with him to curry up top draymond Green back to curry whips a pass to Iguodala short shot he got it and Golden State retakes the lead [Applause] [Music] [Applause] kevin durant has been thought about quite a bit tonight from the fans from his teammates from the organization and they Thompson's been leading the charge of that and leading the charge on the floor as well and please don't try this at home this is absolute greatness this is an awful show but not for klay Thompson a thing of beauty look at the elevation the fall the vision just him in the room what a beautiful relationship I'm telling you if I'm the Warriors as soon as I get the opportunity create to see I am offering this guy a max deal not a penny less if he leaves it won't be because I've tried to shortchange game six clay then again warriors pot to Van Fleet pop so McKinney on him van fleet steps back three-pointer won't go rebound draymond Green 13 boards for draymond Green [Applause] there he steps back two pointer floats it up very quick 17 that's the largest lead of the game for Golden State this game has been close throughout no one's out a double figure lead Serge Ibaka inside pass Leonard Leonard counted out a foul once again that strength he got hit and still able to finish klay Thompson coach outstanding defender when he's a primary guy on the ball sometimes away from the ball he can fall asleep and that's exactly what happens on this possession he lose his sight and Ibaka good adjustment in the air to find a cutting Kawhi Leonard and Mike you referenced it the strength to play through contact is tremendous third foul on klay Thompson and how about Nick nurse sending Kyle Lowery back into the ball game with those four five he's there he is at the scores table he'll check in at the next whistle [Applause] curry penetrates back to curry inside the Thompson [Applause] five to shoot Thompson for three Leonard out to Van Fleet three did see up from battling download he back of cuts in his found great movement without the ball cousins hit him the bako slow to get out full suit - you see the ball movement and the man move it the unselfish play draymond Green to extra pass to klay Thompson that's just good job how about clay finding McKinney doesn't stay still constant movement to see the vision they put so much pressure on your defense just by moving and their presence as students it's very few like him when he gets he's got the NBA record for most threes in a playoff game of 11 got the NBA record for most points in a corner at 37 one night here at Oracle he's had a 60 point game in his career one of the best purest shooters one of the sweetest looking shots this game has ever seen I like this move by Nick nurse go ibaka off the bench 11 points three-point game under three to play third quarter and you can put Lowry in the ballgame because he defends McKenney and Leonard just picked up his fourth foul so Leonard and Lowry each with four personals and that puts them in the penalty 15 Powell of the corner that's just a bad play by quiet Leonard that's the right call and there's no reason to wrap up draymond Green in that situation that's five missed free throws now for Golden State meanwhile draymond Green has just six points but he's got 13 boards and 10 assists and right now Toronto with two of their stars out on the floor here in the third quarter with four personals another missed free throw [Applause] Sayaka me nearly traveled Green on Lowrey Larry gets past falls down lost the ball Thompson running the floor Thompson grabs his left knee now writhing in pain Steph Curry slamming the ball on the court so upset Green went up to block it some of the players saying something Danny Green saying I'm just trying to block the play that wasn't a dirty play by Danny Green everybody for the Warriors in the franchise to narrow the stands holding their breath klay Thompson obviously in some pain he grabbed that left knee right away mark you talked about it earlier one of his strengths is how durable he's been fact that he only missed the one game after straining the hamstring he plays on a lot of nights other players wouldn't be out there and I'm gonna say this they're gonna be more wary of putting him back in there you see the awkward landing and right away after this Durant situation Wow so obviously needs help up the ante Greece just trying to block that shot that that was you said Jeff it's not a dirty play and soon as Thompson grabbed that this is what preceptory was doing and Mike if he leaves he can't come back in so if he doesn't shoot the free throws he's out for the rest of the game [Applause] wait plates up simmons headed back to the locker room but then turned around and lived back out on the floor and is what Jeff you said on a personal foul as Dana Greene Choson sportsmanship fair and Thompson agrees there was nothing intentional but if you're hurt on a play and it's not a flagrant foul and you can't shoot the free throws you cannot return to the game and I think they got the message to klay Thompson as it was walking back the locker room hey if you want to come back in this game you need to shoot these free-throws and if you're Steve Kerr you substitute right now so that when you take a foul as you see play in the back he was walking to the locker room and then somebody yelled something he turns around to shoot the free throws then you can take him out obviously and got the huge roar from the Oracle crowd there is similar to the Boston experience of Paul Pierce when he came back onto the floor but the difference is this guy didn't have to use the restroom [Applause] he hits the free-throw you can still see him dragging out right leg a little bit more the knee excuse me as he now has 29 points and I'm not sure they're gonna foul I think they're signaling for to go back in place down to me I'm committing the foul the klay Thompson looked like he can actually actually survive on the floor right now he's staying in the game and there's the foul cousin Styles siakam Thompson did not want to come out they didn't want that foul and cook will come in Thompson walking slowly trying to run it but Mike I love the idea of making sure he's right let's take him in the back and make sure he's right and this is exactly where he's going Mart you can't afford to make another mistake [Applause] siakam it's the first three throat Thompson missed he's running in the back he missed Game three when he strained the hamstring this was just one of those awkward Falls you hope in those cases it's nothing more than a hyper-extended knee boy it looks serious when he got up but obviously he's running much better now C octave able to convert on the first free throw I'll tell you though John all that action and siakam knocks down the next one Steph Curry in frustration thinking what is going on sat down slam the ball curry dancing at prancin puffed away from behind by Danny Green and a held ball with siakam and curry just move the ball cousins can give you some points and then iguodala's got to get back in there steal off the back tap from siakam cook on the drive kicks it out corner mckinney for three [Applause] I don't like this warrior team on the floor defensively at all siakam gets it to the paint misses the rebound puzzles running the floor cuz it's inside mr. Raptors what to push [Applause] Kawhi Leonard drives on curry inside McKinney with the block and if it's on curry that will be his fourth no excuse me it's on draymond Green and grandma draymond green yelling in the face of Marc Davis saying that's all ball he's got to be careful he's got six technical fouls if he picks up a seventh he would be automatically suspended for a game seven if there is one ask him please look up at the big screen that's close [Applause] Lenard missing the second oh it's curry cook big adalat draymond green and cousins out there for Golden State and cousin being defended by Watt and Lenin they were in that box and won again cousins upset he thought he got fouled let them play down low right now and I'm not gonna let you play boxing one and leave Lenin on the Block against the Marcos cousins he's too skilled of a big man should not go to him Leonard the Flex it out six to shoot now for the Warriors 114 left here in the third klay Thompson still back in the locker rooms rook finds cousins he finds Iguodala Chuck Clark wanna yes to put it up [Applause] Lowrey fouled by cook and he'll suit - that is stop Fallon if you're the Warriors making them make shots over the time about Iguodala with 20 points here in game 6 notices the clocks winding down and desperation three and comes up big as Quinn cook is hobbled now - reiga doll most points he's had in these playoffs we mentioned the 17 big points Game six in Houston without Kevin Durant as Lowry misses a free throw what a big-time player in the pressure games was part of it the group that changed the culture here signed as a free agent had success prior to this and was willing to be a team guy came off the bench and he is a great warrior boxing won again curry double-team nutcase bounce still Golden State ball 9 on the 24 Raptors have only one made field goal the last five minutes but six free throws Danny Green took a shot he's shaken up but here's where curry just becomes a difference maker by being a willing passer did they go to put two guys on me find the open man and trust these guys to make plays offense exactly you can't try to take too much on yourself so Breen who's hurting right now goes to the bench Norman Powell in draymond Green 3-pointer rebound Leonard Lowery ahead of the pack goes up and lays it in great feet ahead from Kawhi Leonard and it's back to a two-point game and that's on Quinn cook and curry they've got to get all the way back and they're gonna stay in this box and won both teams in the penalty so any foul and it's a trip to the free-throw line buck steps into a three the bucket exit the curry curry on the drive throws it away shot clock turned off pow four threes Ibaka puts it up on the tip let's see if they count it on the floor they're saying yes they'll review it as Leonard tipped in the Miss to tie the game it was very close to time expiring and officials will go right to the score stable oh it looks like it's still on his fingertips they're gonna wave that off that won't count when we come back the fourth corner with the Warriors up two doors fourth quarter underway here in Game six Lowery lost it Ibaka has it has to shoot shot clock winding down jump shot misses Steve Kerr gets the Sam Cassell award for biggest onions there is fourth quarter no Thompson no curry and a lineup that I probably has not played together either Hudson's gets inside little fake shot blocked by Ibaka fuzzums gets it back on the court for Golan state includes Jonas Jerebko who hasn't even played the last two games he's only played 24 minutes in these finals but on the floor here in an elimination game did the Marcus cousins credit attacking the offensive boards against the contact but you're right about Steve Kerr I'm not going with this lino not for all the marbles and he did it in the previous game and they came out what a victory can they duplicated and the reason is he felt that curry was too fatigued to go all 24 minutes are that he just needed a breather over there mentally he was not playing while at the third Marc Gasol is going to come in they're going after Norman Powell doubles into traffic and lost it Lowrey back to Ibaka serge ibaka once again he's got 13 and how about the hustle from Kyle Lowry he's been outstanding all night long what a critical turnover possibility to go up five in transition instead cut to one cousins banging bodies down low spins left handed blocked siakam with the rejection so Kawhi Leonard and Steph Curry both sitting right now to start the fourth and about either one of those guys I'm looking at my coaches and saying put me in sand fleet Ibaka missed it and cousins the rebound fella Norman Powell let's end it over the doors Mike and very typical klay Thompson fashion he is back in the locker room jumping up and down doing everything possible to stay loose he told his father twice on the hallway back his father said did you hear anything pop he said it twice I did not hear anything pops Oh Mike no evaluation yet from the team but that's what he's doing back here Thank You Doris that's when he went down went back to the locker room but quickly returned so he could shoot the free-throw so if need be he could return to the game gets into the paint layup is coming quick hit a big three in Game five and he puts the Warriors up by three here in Game six Lowery pull-up jumper draymond Green with his fifteenth rebound the other Raptors the one guy you can't play like he's not a shooter is Jonas to Repco he's proven that he can shoot the basketball and will shoot the basketball and a foul is going to go against Toronto Gasol picks up his fourth we'll go back to Doris again Mike the report on klay Thompson is that knee injury will keep him out and he will not return the remainder of the game back to you Thank You Doris another damaging blow for the two-time defending champs and the interesting thing is if the situation had not occurred with Kevin Durant would that decision be the same one that they just made you know Thompson was back there bleeding to come back in the game rooks could open three Livingston try to keep it alive here comes Norman Powell great screen by curry against the bots and one got cook the wide open jumper theokoles got a look to take advantage of this matchup but it's Raymond green looking to help mark shot clock at five van sleet using a screen plunder all vans lead again his third three-pointer and the game is tied and DeMarcus Cousins afraid of the speed of Van Vleet backs up and allows him to step into a rhythm three Steve Kerr will call a timeout no doubt to get Steph Curry back into the game Fred vanvleet 13 points off the bench you've got to be up on this screen he's not and he pays the price van fleet in rhythm as Jurassic Park excited [Applause] Livingston on the pull-ups got it to go Livingston second field goal [Applause] Lowrey Leonard Gasol Van Fleet and siakam Leonard's got into dialing up on their van fleet which Florida shoot curry right with him this week gets past now drives out to Lowry wow he just gets it off the time plumps up shortened draymond Green hauls in yet another rebound 16 boards 11 assists for draymond Green who drives inside pass to Looney and an offensive foul as Gasol stood in and threw the charge and Spore fouls on draymond Green and there's klay Thompson walking with crutches right now a 30-point game and right now the Warriors playing without a guy who's been averaging 25 a game in the finals without Kevin Durant who was averaging 32 in the playoffs trying to hang on and force the game seven Leonard up and under shot misses three balls in another then you download a Livingstone VanFleet right up into curry Leonard looking to help out curry the floater in the paint a rebound siakam 21.6 chords for Pascal see - Wow he sees the double-team Gasol fakes out the van blue we would have kept dribbling you without a layup and fleet Fred vanvleet from downtown and the Raptors lead by one what a tough shot [Applause] Livingston one-handed gets the bounce three pulled back his hand although Nick nurse trying to say maybe not they're given that hoot degree well if that was the case that may have been above the cylinder Lowery stolen by looting [Applause] this building exploding right now as the Warriors go up by three off the Warriors can hold on at force' Game seven will be in Toronto Sunday coverage on ABC begins 7:30 to cap down tip-off shortly after 8:00 those fans though let's go to Bank Arena Jurassic Park they want to celebrate tonight here's the play the ball still above the cylinder and draymond Green did touch it he took his hand away first and then tipped it in and that's above the cylinder and that's what Nick nurse was complaining about saying it should have been disallowed [Applause] the soul to Lowrey fakes drives pass inside to see Occam beautiful feet from Lowrey his ninth assist and it's back to one great play by Lowry but I can't say enough about the championships DNA that the Warriors pon display they have no business in this game short-handed and every excuse to quit but they refuse curry gets his side flips up a two point went back to mean the man on that possession curry got some space and was able to finish 19 for curry the soul still looking for his first field goal Leonard off balance short see I kept trying to grab it Gasol comes away van swieten another three foul called you could hardly hear the whistle as livingstone foul band fleet and he'll shoot three free throws we could see Livingston upset with himself [Applause] it looked like he hit him in the head and the arm this guy has responded VanFleet two threes and now the three-point shot the undrafted overachiever from Wichita State this rookie year he was the last player on the 15 man roster to make the team like what Steve Kerr is doing trying to get Quinn cook back into this ball game another guy at least that's a threat as a jump shooter from Toronto I'm sticking with the boxing one they going back man-to-man curry with a 3-pointer see ocula no the rebound that was a great look by curry [Applause] Lowry's the soul not even looking at shoot fan fleet takes blooney keeps his dribble alive shot clock down to five Leonard has it's nearly taken away being bleep throws up another hits the rim and Gasol another offensive rebound Leonard for three that misses meganula grabs that one moody is really struggling to rebound the ball in traffic mega dollar jump shots he's got 22 he has been big time for this Warriors team to crush on him the straw and he has not disappointed Flowery tied up by Looney C Optim crossover drives pass deflected here comes Trayvon green trying to draw now and he lost the ball you got a run back they got two warriors not over half-court Leonard Gasol and oh what's the lot of foul and the question is did he get found absolutely looked like this contact but this is for all the marbles you can't complain and pout get back on the other end he was trying to do all the whistle and then down the other end gasol got hit still pleading his case [Applause] the soul ties the game coming up on four minutes remaining this is the last game at Oracle will it be the last game of the NBA season curry launches a three-man rebound out of Bounce Toronto gets it back that's great team defense the reason why is Marc Gasol save VanFleet as he was stuck on the screen but the big guy jumped out and contested making it a force shot by curry this is great team defense this is the open shot and Parker soul doesn't jump out but he does and he did it without fouling and they subbed Ibaka in for him VanFleet gets a wide open look punch it in Fred vanvleet a huge 3-pointer 22 points off the vanships Golden State calls timeout while Fred vanvleet has answered the call tonight a miscommunication on switching he gets a wide-open 312 huge fourth quarter points for VanFleet and the Raptors [Music] back at Oracle Toronto but a three point lead and it's Fred vanvleet making plays knocks down the long ball again one-on-one against curry gets them on his heels knocks down a long ball just stellar offense 12 big points in the fourth quarter and Raptors up by three a foul on Serge Ibaka with 336 remaining with Toronto that's the fourth team foul next one's the penalty Van Vleet had a great career at Wichita State for years led them to a Final Four but did not get drafted first couple of years he was a good solid player Masai Ujiri signed him to a two-year deal this year where one upon him with a great backup point guard the biggest game of his life and he is shining green throws it out of bounds Clemont green upset with Quinn cook that's a bad pass it is but cooks got to get in his line of vision against the double-team but that's his 70s Charlton and they're putting DeMarcus Cousins in the picture roll action Vance lead again guarded by cousins out on an island eighths of shoots van fleet pulls backs puts it up in and out he's popular rebound back up and in five-point lead outstanding job by Ibaka the switch puts a little man on him and he capitalizes by attacking the offensive boards curry back to Iguodala finds draymond Green his three pointers up fight for the rebound cousins knocked away and a loose ball foul is going to go against Ibaka great effort by cousins on the offensive glass who will shoot free throws as that's the 15th Fowler in the penalty just fighting everybody's interlocked and he finds his way to the free-throw line that's a man's rebound right in their cousin's first career has been a solid free throw shooter 74% he's now 3 for 4 tonight from the line coming up next on ESPN SportsCenter with Scott Van Pelt and I'll have complete postgame coverage one for two I've bumped around I'm going straight back to the high pick-and-roll putting cousins in the actions they switch everybody out of the way and VanFleet make a play Toronto two and a half minutes away from a championship much like they had in games five see outcome left open long rebound back to see outcome and a new 14 on the shot clock all the switching is leading to second shots see I come out to Lowry four to shoot Larry between the legs drives inside falling away puts it up bounces and wrapped throw another bounce for the Toronto Raptors hurry trying to get away from a double-team cousins fakes spins picks it out again ala draymond Green is going to try again [Music] inside siakam see I come across the lane and he got whacked by cousins YouTube this is just a tough shot this is good defense by Steph Curry outstanding defense how are we playing like a bad boy and again Jurassic Park sensing how close they are to winning a championship and cousins was guarding siakam there he's just got to make him shoot it over the top don't whack down siakam 76 percent from the line in the playoffs misses the first he was two for two he's at a marvelous game 23 points 10 rebounds three assists a couple of blocks the biggest free throws of his life coach of um draymond Green Andre Iguodala I got to be locked and loaded if they gonna damn me to make a three it's the rice shot just like greens last shot Mary comes off the screen looking to get free rightful to pass to cousins and cousins is fouled by Lowry Larry the cousins pushed off that was close as Lowry picks up his fifth personal good play by curry I thought Lowrey was there I thought it was a good rotation by Lao a tough call does it's mrs. Hoffman still a four-point game [Applause] now he put his hands up the meant cousins pushed off one for to once again and it's back to three [Applause] Hawaiian survey the court [Applause] Leonard pulls up shot won't go rebound cousins a minute remaining [Applause] hurry trying to get free letter pokes it away but green goes back to get it still plenty of time on the shot clock cousins on the drive across the lane layup is good one-point game and here's the question again timeout or no timeout and I say no timeout I'm not gonna allow you to get fed better defenders on the floor they choose to took to call the timeout with Nick nurse wants to talk it over to mark his cousin's playing big minutes with all the injuries with a huge bucket to cut it 2-1 [Music] [Applause] just under 38 seconds remaining cousins 12 points off the bench the biggest basket of his career Raptors ball when we come back they get to stop and wanna play in transition they have left offensive players on the floor but that's why I don't call the timeout allowing them to put movie on the floor set a custom makes it a three-point game Steve Kerr's got the same decision curry gets inside falls down and a trip call but now it's just going to be a free throw shooting game Oh curry will shoot to the shot clock will be turned off and the Warriors unless they force the turnover will have to foul see how come one in his matchup this a bad gamble by draymond Green the ability to eliminate the swipe get to his spot elevate good offense by C - and one of the great free throw shooters who's ever played will shoot - you see their 4 for 4 tonight here's the play there he gets past siakam will it look like he hit his own foot to knock himself down [Applause] two clutch free throws there back to one we got to be aggressive looking to steal the basketball while thinking commit the foul I'm gonna take one trap at least flowery looking looking and has to call a timeout good ball denial from Golden State again he here Toronto out of timeouts so obviously they have to get the ball inbounds as they advance the ball to the frontcourt Danny Green comes in VanFleet Leonard siakam and Lowry will inbound I don't want the ball hit and winter tans anybody else I'm fine with Lowery throws it on the back court to Leonard here comes the double-team Leonard still in the backcourt throws it ahead to green green surrounded by draymond Green [Applause] and Steve Kerr calls timeout the warrior defense forces yet another turnover and they're still very much alive an NBA championship on the line mega dollar pros at the green catches it back to curry puts up a three monster loose they dine on it drank whole time and a timeout cold so it's a technical foul they had no timeouts remaining so a technical foul will be called Golden State [Applause] it's still not over yet the officials will meet as Mark Davis John Goble and David Guthrie discussing the situation but trying to make the right play great hustle this is the right play have you had a timeout and this should've been discussed I'm sure in the huddle during a timeout that we're out of them but if he doesn't call the timeout the clock runs out the game is over well this is a Brad Stevens play throwing at weak side and then screening for him right there we got a fairly good look and then a second shot almost but good effort by Kawhi Leonard to chase down the long rebound when you see beat me Walmart Toronto will have possession the excessive timeout is a technical foul and you lose possession the world is on play and they got a good look foot Curry just didn't get the bounce though the officials now check again see yep all you have to do is shoot the free-throw inbound the ball deep you don't want to obviously throw it back towards the Warriors basket where something improbable could happen it's a one-shot technical with nine tenths of a second remaining and then Toronto will inbound as Kawhi Leonard is going to go to the free-throw with nine point ten seconds left Leonard 405 from the free-throw line and then again Toronto will get possession even though green at possession would he call timeout you lose possession with the excessive timeout now they just have to inbound the ball and the celebration will be underway and it should be a celebration both ways this is the last time at Oracle Arena and about this crowd I'm standing and appreciating what this team has done Flowery has it throws it in to Leonard that's it it's over the Raptors win they call a foul Leonard snake the pulse to go in as some of the fans now heading for the exits the celebration hook ready underway it's goes to Bank Arena [Applause] it says zero zero on the clock they called the foul as the ball was being released in and and their chance though the Warriors is miss make one miss the second throw it in and that's why I'd have Steph Curry on the free-throw line while Leonard could seal it at the line as he hits the first you know is over right yes you're still culture Wow still here hoping for a miracle also hear the cheer on Leonard makes it official Alan Warriors just inbound and that's it there's a new NBA champion and it's a team from Toronto Canada we the North are now we the champions the Raptors the 2019 NBA champs [Applause] such respect from these two teams as they battled so hard for six games and Kawhi Leonard and the Raptors emerged victorious well it's hard to calculate the impact this team will have in Toronto and throughout Canada the popularity of the NBA in a basketball is skyrocketed Ricci in recent years and future generations of raptor fans will always tell the story of this 2019 team their first title in franchise history one a year prickle I Leonard and litter on toe Raptors what a game tonight and what a finals as Leonard leads Toronto to the NBA championship but he had plenty out tonight thanks Kelsey akhom the young man from Cameroon with 26 points and 10 rebounds and Fred vanvleet a magnificent performance in the biggest game of his life we'll hear from him when we come back more to come the trophy ceremony it's all ahead as the Raptors are NBA champions dreams of a three-peat for the Golden State Warriors come to a dentist if Curry says hello to Bill Russell will be on hand to present the trophy this Golden State falls short to the Toronto Raptors and Fred vanvleet who's with Doris Fred every single one of these six games seemed drama filled with an incredible amount of intensity from a player between the lines can you describe what it was like competing in this series stressful distressing those guys don't make it easy man they're the best in the pigeons for a reason they've been the best for a long time it took a lot of effort on our part a lot of focus a lot of resilience they don't give you anything so you got to go out there and take it and we were just able to maintain over the series throughout the game but particularly in the fourth quarter the ball found you and you either had to take shots or make plays so can you describe as the ball was making its way to you what you were thinking that's what I do that's what I do that's what I worked for all summer had a confidence in myself my teammates have that confidence in me and wat can't take all the shots so they were doubling Kyle kind of slow down a little bit they were doubling and I was able to step up and make some big shots you talking about the champions you talked about the champions who were looking opposite and there was a moment where perhaps one of the best to ever do it Steph found you can you describe that exchange it's gotta meet the challenge man we've scored a thousand points in this series it felt like but I just want to make it tough

I so wish we had won it in Toronto. The energy from the hometown crowd is part of what makes the 76ers game winner so fun to watch. Likewise Game 6 against the Bucks when Lowry setup Kawhi's dunk over Giannis.

It also doesn't help that the last few seconds of the Championship clincher was a foregone conclusion but delayed with rules formalities.

"...and it's a team from Toronto, Canada..." chokes me up every damned time.

This makes me miss Kawhi...

I'm glad ESPN cleaned up the broadcast by dropping the endless delay in the last 0.9 seconds and after the last foul.
