The Toronto Raptors are kings of the NBA and the toast of Canada
Share to twitterOAKLAND, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 13: Kawhi Leonard #2 of the Toronto Raptors celebrates with the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy after his team defeated the Golden State Warriors to win Game Six of the 2019 NBA Finals at ORACLE Arena on June 13, 2019 inThe Toronto Raptors beat the two-time defending champion Golden State Warriors 114-110 in Oakland to win the NBA Championship in six games, becoming the first team outside the United States to win the Larry O'Brien Trophy.
ESPN reported that Thompson had suffered a torn ACL in his left knee during the game and, of course, Durant suffered a torn Achilles the previous game in Toronto. Durant will likely miss the entire season and Thompson's rehab will likely keep him out for the first few months of next season. With 16 three-pointers in the NBA Finals, VanVleet recorded the most three-pointers off the bench in an NBA Finals series, breaking the record of 15 held by JR Smith and Robert Horry.
After an inbounds pass, the ball came to Curry and he put up a three-point shot for the win with only seven seconds left, but it missed. Curry was only 3-for-11 from beyond the arc after having drained five three-pointers in Monday's 106-105 victory in Toronto to extend the series. Many also questioned the value of acquiring a player who had the option to leave in free agency this summer. Leonard's decision on his future will be closely watched in the days to come.
The feeling was that if Toronto could improve its shooting just a little and have the Warriors regress even slightly, the Raptors would have a chance. "We're NBA champions so if that makes you a super team I'll take it," he said."People don't view us that way because it's untraditional. It's not the glam stars.
Even though Gasol struggled, second-unit center Serge Ibaka came in and performed admirably, going 7-for-12 from the field with 15 points. Ibaka had been taken out of the starting rotation for the most part after Gasol came from Memphis in a trade this season. But Ibaka showed his toughness down the stretch, and he proved to be a valuable piece to this championship.
