I think it depends on whether or not Kevin Durant plays . If he doesnt play Raptors can beat them. The Raptors won the 2 regular season games. I am Canadian and a huge Raptor fan I think we can compete with them !!! Also the Raptors bench has to play strong minutes.

How do you figure that when Raptors won both pre-playoff games vs the Warriors and that was with Durant playing? Warriors also lost to the Bucks and Celtics. We will see...

I think the Warriors take this series in 5 or 6 games. They are too much even without Durant for the Raptors who rely heavily on Kawhi to win games. He will be able to will them to one or two victories but thats it as the Warriors will show why they're the best team in basketball.

My guess would be Warriors in 6. GS might be rusty, over-rested for game 1. Health is a key factor for the series. Will Boogie return, if so how effective will he be? Will Durant play at all, will he limit ball movement? Is Kawhi going to be 100%? Draymond has enough playoff experience to limit his offense.

The finals aren't regular season, remember OKC beaten Portland 4-0 in regular season then they got eliminated by Blazers.
Not Kevin Durant needed to see a 4-0 for GSW
Hope they win this tittle

No way Golden State wins in 4.
Toronto has a solid defense with length and able to switch most matchups.
Toronto further has a deeper bench.
As a consequence of defense, the game will be heavily played in the half court set.
As a consequence of the half court set, the scoring will be on average lower.
Lower scores will expand variance and that will favor Toronto.
As Durant currently is out,
I give the edge to G-State in 6-7 based on experience.
With Durant back, more like 5-6.
Yet, a Toronto victory is not inconceivable.

Toronto is in the finals for the first time in their history. In my opinion they can win this series (If Kawhi can continue his amazing ball, and if his teammates can help him like they did against the Bucks). They already beat GSW several times, they can do it again. I feel a big surprise this year, i think toronto can win in 7.

As a Warriors fan I was worried a little about game 1 because the Raptors were hungry, the fans were hyped for this game and they had momentum while the Warriors had rust being off for so long. I still think the Warriors win this series but its clear Toronto can play with them and they showed it tonight taking game 1.
