It's fairly easy to figure it out.

@桜維新 (1) I would have nothing but respect it were Rockets or Cavs beating an injuired Warriors because these two teams have proved they can be competive against a healthy Warriors (Rockets 3:4 in 2018, Cavs 4:3 in 2016, both against healthy Warriors). Raptors have never proved that they can compete against a healthy Warriors. (2) Also, even though Warriors lost to Cavs in 2016, they proved that they can be competive against a healthy Cavs (3:4). Therefore, I think they're worthy of the title in 2015 when faced with an injured Cavs. (3) Last but not least, Raptors, after "winning" their first ever title, their star players all left for other teams. Can you give me another example of this? In all other cases, a championship team would keep most of star players (if not all), build on it and still be in a good position to win a second champion next season. Why did they all leave? Perhaps they knew they just got lucky in 2019 and things would not be as good in 2020.

Realistically Kd was the whole backbone of the warriors he is what gave them hope them definitely win this game, game 6 is a toss up but if klay had the same game before he got injured then they win game 6 and game 7 in Toronto I give it to the warriors only because I feel KD would simply be the best player on the court
If KD played like this knowing his Achilles was going to rupture any minute, why question how he going to play after? All it’s going to do is turn him into more of a sharp and y’all Bronsexuals don’t want that
I see KD's offensive game to be just where he left it but I can see the defense struggling a bit for at least the next season until he's back in it for a full year and feels more comfortable playing 100% every game
Well yeah, no team (in any era) would beat a healthy warriors team. But with all the injury luck the warriors have had I don't feel the least bit bad for them. Feel terrible for KD.
They were fortunate but I still believe there's a very good chance Toronto wins either way since they just seemed to have Golden State's number last year.
I hate how people complain that the raptors only won because durrant was injured. But they don’t realise in 2015 the warriors only won because Kyrie was injured
It's Kevin Love and Kyrie who is injured that time.LeBron is not so much familiar to his teammates that time that's why they cannot get the championship.
If kd had not played and not tore his Achilles, the entire nba including warriors fan base would throw him under the bus. Bay Area writers were already writing off kd as having no heart and desire to play. Imagine the hate if he didn’t play.
The media is toxic, but KD is part of the problem too if you think about it. He just doesn't commit long term to anything except for his own love of basketball.
They played Durant the whole 1st quarter. I’m sitting there watching the game like what are they doing. They could have taken him out the game earlier. They should’ve had a plan to play him 5 mins per quarter. 20 minutes of play a game is better than no Durant at all.
They could do that but the raptors will start to realize his FG% is high then will send someone to rough him up, thats where the injury will happen again.
If KD was healthy in the game, Fred Vanvleet wouldn’t have disrespected him. KD will be his daddy. Wait until next season. Revenge season against the raptors
This is how KD would play when he comes back from his achilles injury- slower, no more crossovers, no more dunks, no more post up, no defense, no more explosive drive. Basically 30% of his former self. Well, i am actually wrong like everyone else. Kd just got better
The warriors are a much better team with KD on the floor. The first quarter of game 5, was the best offensive quarter they had in these finals and they did that, while KD wasn't healthy. But I'm happy golden state lost because people were saying the team was better without KD. People that don't know basketball, would've pushed that narrative
This video just proves that KD was a huge deciding factor... literally fucking unstoppable it's fucking disgusting how they can just keep draining threes back to back to back
The raptors fans really think they would’ve beat a healthy warriors team...like bro the warriors were gonna take YALL to 7 games if Klay doesn’t get hurt in game 6 stop smoking crack. A healthy Klay, KD, and even cousins would’ve swept the 96 bulls and that’s coming from a jordan fan like stop it...this team is the greatest team of all time and on top of that their 6th man was iggy like wtf
Kevin Durant is one of the most unstoppable offensive forces the NBA has ever seen, it was easier to stop Kobe and is easier to stop Lebron over KD offensively, Lebron is unstoppable only in transition and if he gets a momentum slashing to the basket, KD is a threat at all times including transition and from anywhere on the court.
@@mcmaster3109 Everyone Kawhi and Spurs and Rockets and Cp3 injuries kinda affected the series! I looked at the whole picture. Its about story lines! Warriors have some breaks too.
Injuries didn't help the Toronto raptors win the chip. It helped this GS dream team to preserve their "unbeatable" image. Else kawhi will give them an ass whooping and there's no zaza this time to help their ass. And that even when kawhi is not fully healthy here.
“Raptors would’ve lost in 5 with Kd”. This coming from the SAME people who said “wArRiOrs iN fOuR” when the raptors won the ecf seriously like wtf do u Americans know u picked the warriors to sweep them when they didn’t have kd your guys’ opinion is invalid asf
Everyone went from saying Golden State was just as good if not better without KD after the Portland series to complaining about how they were too injured to win after falling behind Toronto 3-1, hypocrisy at it's absolute finest.
Warriors deserved to lose this series. Basketball god was watching, not saying KD n klay injured was a good thing. But 2015, almost every team they played was injured, 2016 they lost, 2017 they won and 2018 rockets was also injured. Injures is part of game, there's no ifs, it is what it is. You go to war with what you got!
Here before LeBron beats Kd in the 2021 finals . Watch how Kd fans comeback to this to blame when Kd lose to LeBron. , and LeBron ties the series 2-2 between them
@@sirfidelcortes6805 very true, he obviously wasn't 100% but also take into account that its just his opening game in the series when no one knew he would play, it was a bit of a surprise. If he plays the whole series the Raptors would have game planned to get the ball out of his hands early and double as early as possible or something of that nature, he wouldn't sustain this pace for a full series, but that being said KD is just too damn good and if he was even playing at 60% for the whole series he would have clutched a championship
warriors almost had a double digit lead coz of kd but without him the raptors would've taken a double digit lead too or a close game coz of klay and steph
RAPTORS really defeated a SUPERTEAM GSW with starting five all stars, with 2 MVPs and 1 DPOY. See, it was already 3-1 in that series even KD and Klay haven't yet injured. Such a sad moment, they haven't given a chance to come back .
I agree, they deserve at least 3 years of mediocracy which is what they're going to get....next season Klay is injured too which means probably a non playoff year for the Warriors again and who knows with that injury prone group if someone else gets injured again, even if they are fully healthy, Lebron and AD are too much for them and once Lebron retires Steph and Klay and Dreymond will be pretty old, so I think the glory days are over but they will still be very competitive, just no championships.
When the warriors actually needed kd for lebron and kawhi😂 Without durant y’all would only have 2, ofcourse he had to sacrifice his legacy to save the warriors legacy as a 73-9 team that choked a 3-1 lead in the finals😂 but people tend to forget that… Also without kd, y’all ain’t beating 2017 spurs or cavs Not biased just facts
Low key miss the KD warriors tho, can’t believe green recruited him before the 2015/16 season started.. then wanted him gone after his role was diminishing😂 classic draymond
Logic in the comments: "RaPToRZ WuZ GuNnA LoOzE tHe FiNaLs iF KD dIdNt GiT HuRT" Reality: The Raptors were only down five points...in a clinching game. And KD only hit jump shots on a lame leg.
You talking about 1 game. Let healthy KD play in Game 1 to 3, and it's gonna end in 4 beating Raptors. This was pretty easy for KD on ONE leg. And guess what, this win of Raptors is pretty lame, not even the talk of the town outside Toronto, it's like they beat a different team. lol

man literally comes back for a quarter and u can already know the raptors bout to lose the series from 3-1 thats how good he is. then hes gone.
Buck Fitchez stop defending them in every comment..u cry baby bitch.
@@burneraccount2761 who tf was stopping kd tho😭😭😭
I'm a Kawhi or Giannis guy buy at this time KD was the best player in the world no questions asked.
Different series if KD wasn't hurt and gsw more healthier
@Lucas Walker yeah ends in 6 with warriors winning
@@Apexssb but they didn’t😂😂😂
The warriors are a much better team with KD on the floor. The first quarter of game 5, was the best offensive quarter they had in these finals and they did that, while KD wasn't healthy. But I'm happy golden state lost because people were saying the team was better without KD. People that don't know basketball, would've pushed that narrative
true
I miss curry and kd playing together
If kd was healthy through the whole series the Warriors woulda won 4-2, but at the same time credits to the raps
Warriors cooperate are so great.
That's his last game as a GSW btw 😲
This video just proves that KD was a huge deciding factor... literally fucking unstoppable it's fucking disgusting how they can just keep draining threes back to back to back
I believe with kd they would have won.
as someone who couldn’t estand this kd warriors im so grateful he didn’t play haha
Toronto Raptors is arguably the luckiest team in the NBA period! Thank god it stopped GSW from getting that 3peat! Kobe for life!
Fuck kobe
You suck gsw is still a daddy in nba
I’m not a warriors fan but the warriors would’ve 100 % won the series if he didn’t go down 🤷🏽♂️
Cavs in 2015 wouldve won had kyrie and love not went down the whole series🤷♂️, same with spurs in 2017, and rockets in 2018🤷♂️🤷♂️
I miss you KD 😢 soon, soon..
Kd is a beast
Should be a 3 time nba champ rn
Welcoming you
To Toronto raptors jurassic park is ready for you kd
Raptors were an amazing team but if KD was fully back, Warriors no doubt would've come back from 3-1.
@Lucas Walker they win in 7
@Lucas Walker *win in 7
@Lucas Walker f*uck 2018-19 toronto raptors, but no Kawhi
If KD was even 50% Warriors win this Finals. Everyone knows it.
The raptors fans really think they would’ve beat a healthy warriors team...like bro the warriors were gonna take YALL to 7 games if Klay doesn’t get hurt in game 6 stop smoking crack. A healthy Klay, KD, and even cousins would’ve swept the 96 bulls and that’s coming from a jordan fan like stop it...this team is the greatest team of all time and on top of that their 6th man was iggy like wtf
This Goes to Show you that Lebrons Cavs would have 3 peated if KD wouldnt have joined the 73-9 warriors.
No lmao the warriors just needed a Forward who was better than harrison barne. dude shot 5-32 in the last three games 😂
10:03 Leonard travel
KD was killing Siakam and Kawhi at the same time. But specially Paskal Siakam, there is no match for Kevin Durant and you can ask Lebron James 😁😁
Yeah when he's paired with curry and klay 🤣🤣🤣
@@duncanspurs5436 naah it's been proving kd is scorching best players in his okc days.
Kevin Durant is one of the most unstoppable offensive forces the NBA has ever seen, it was easier to stop Kobe and is easier to stop Lebron over KD offensively, Lebron is unstoppable only in transition and if he gets a momentum slashing to the basket, KD is a threat at all times including transition and from anywhere on the court.
As a raptors fan, we got lucky af. But a win is a win so you can't speculate "what if's" Injury is apart of the game
Your team sucks
@@mcmaster3109 Everyone Kawhi and Spurs and Rockets and Cp3 injuries kinda affected the series! I looked at the whole picture. Its about story lines! Warriors have some breaks too.
Injuries didn't help the Toronto raptors win the chip.
It helped this GS dream team to preserve their "unbeatable" image. Else kawhi will give them an ass whooping and there's no zaza this time to help their ass. And that even when kawhi is not fully healthy here.
“Raptors would’ve lost in 5 with Kd”. This coming from the SAME people who said “wArRiOrs iN fOuR” when the raptors won the ecf seriously like wtf do u Americans know u picked the warriors to sweep them when they didn’t have kd your guys’ opinion is invalid asf
Everyone went from saying Golden State was just as good if not better without KD after the Portland series to complaining about how they were too injured to win after falling behind Toronto 3-1, hypocrisy at it's absolute finest.
heart breaking
Warriors deserved to lose this series. Basketball god was watching, not saying KD n klay injured was a good thing. But 2015, almost every team they played was injured, 2016 they lost, 2017 they won and 2018 rockets was also injured. Injures is part of game, there's no ifs, it is what it is. You go to war with what you got!
Here before LeBron beats Kd in the 2021 finals . Watch how Kd fans comeback to this to blame when Kd lose to LeBron. , and LeBron ties the series 2-2 between them
I bet bron dont even make the finals
@@michelleharding9646 yea he will . always does
@@smdideleted6327 90% of that qas in the trash ass east lucky klay is out for the season but better hope the clippers dont play the lakers
@E 20 you know Damb well Kd can’t ever guard LeBron ever 🤷🏾 seen LeBron avg 29 33 &34 vs Kd in the finals , along wit a triple double
This didn't age well LMAO!!!
Let’s be honest if curry and klay was healthy the warriors would have won in 6 or 7 or at best 5
Kd must have been like 60% because he looked scared to move around
2:25
When durant got injured it was only a 5 point game y’all clowns saying warriors would easily win
That's true. But it is likewise correct that KD was not playing his 100%.
They won that game fool.
@@sirfidelcortes6805 very true, he obviously wasn't 100% but also take into account that its just his opening game in the series when no one knew he would play, it was a bit of a surprise. If he plays the whole series the Raptors would have game planned to get the ball out of his hands early and double as early as possible or something of that nature, he wouldn't sustain this pace for a full series, but that being said KD is just too damn good and if he was even playing at 60% for the whole series he would have clutched a championship
warriors almost had a double digit lead coz of kd but without him the raptors would've taken a double digit lead too or a close game coz of klay and steph
Gs would have won if KD wasn’t injured
@Lucas Walker Warriors in 4 if he played
@Lucas Walker ?
3:30ish or so klay Thompson double dribbled
RAPTORS really defeated a SUPERTEAM GSW with starting five all stars, with 2 MVPs and 1 DPOY. See, it was already 3-1 in that series even KD and Klay haven't yet injured. Such a sad moment, they haven't given a chance to come back .
Warriors pressured him to play when he clearly wasn’t ready to return. They deserve their terrible 2019-2020 season solely bc of that.
I agree, they deserve at least 3 years of mediocracy which is what they're going to get....next season Klay is injured too which means probably a non playoff year for the Warriors again and who knows with that injury prone group if someone else gets injured again, even if they are fully healthy, Lebron and AD are too much for them and once Lebron retires Steph and Klay and Dreymond will be pretty old, so I think the glory days are over but they will still be very competitive, just no championships.
When the warriors actually needed kd for lebron and kawhi😂
Without durant y’all would only have 2, ofcourse he had to sacrifice his legacy to save the warriors legacy as a 73-9 team that choked a 3-1 lead in the finals😂 but people tend to forget that…
Also without kd, y’all ain’t beating 2017 spurs or cavs
Not biased just facts
Low key miss the KD warriors tho, can’t believe green recruited him before the 2015/16 season started.. then wanted him gone after his role was diminishing😂 classic draymond
What if you wanted to 3peat but injuries said “no”
8:56 just didn’t look good
Kd was that problem they new it
Ya'll Americans still can't take losing in the NBA Finals ONCE huh?
stay with me
that clown nick nurse just got exposed after kahwi left.
Why is he no sub out coach Kerr
I still can't believe Steve Kerr couldn't subbed him for 8 minutes per half.
That's why he got injured.
Warriors would have definitely won this series if they were full healthy
Don't matter, no excuses
of course , you can see the difference when KD come out , the defense level is really different , KD can guard Gasol and siakam more effectively.
KD was scorching
😢
Man I’m still on that nba finals year that how the hell warriors lost they could’ve won it last year but it’s all the stupid coach fault
13:23 ah shit here we go again!!
Look at curry man
kawhi was a non factor
Domenic Solomon nigggaaa please tell me your joking
Domenic Solomon 😐 bro what
Kawheelchair
LeBron James fuck you with your kawhi
Logic in the comments: "RaPToRZ WuZ GuNnA LoOzE tHe FiNaLs iF KD dIdNt GiT HuRT"
Reality: The Raptors were only down five points...in a clinching game. And KD only hit jump shots on a lame leg.
You talking about 1 game. Let healthy KD play in Game 1 to 3, and it's gonna end in 4 beating Raptors. This was pretty easy for KD on ONE leg. And guess what, this win of Raptors is pretty lame, not even the talk of the town outside Toronto, it's like they beat a different team. lol
@@BLinX神 dudes retarded😂
@@BLinX神 cry clown😂 warriors benefited from injuries in 2015,2017,and 2018
