    Default Just realized - Raptors have HOME COURT in the Finals...:)

    Shouldn't be a sweep and a gentleman's sweep like the last two years.


    I knew the Bucks had 60 wins - checked the NBA app:


    GSW - 57-25 record
    Raptors - 58-24 record


    I know a ton of those GSW losses happened when Steph was out.


    Am I the only one realizing the home court situation?




    Also, refresh my memory - I know GSW went to the 2015 Finals obviously - I can't remember, did they go through Kawhi that year? Or did some other team bounce the Spurs in an earlier round?

    It's a unique situation. Wonder when the last time the Finals favorite, a substantial one at that, didn't have HCA

    And the Clippers beat the Spurs in 2015

    Just like Avengers ends the same as Iron Man 1 ends; I Am Iron Man.

    Oh man... perhaps Wheels was always right about the Thanos connection?

    Vegas had Lakers as favorites in 2008.

    I didn't know either until ESPN mentioned it

    the absolute lack of respect and moral shown for basketball, history and anything good in the world by celebrating a "sweep" in which the refs turned the series on its head

    According to box score watchers, and the people who think the game is played on spreadsheets, the Raptors are the favorites.
