Toronto Raptors vs. the Golden State Warriors 2019 NBA Finals Preview



Tonight will start game one of the 2019 NBA Finals between Toronto Raptors vs the Golden State Warriors.

This might end up being one of the most lopsided NBA Finals were about to watch.

Toronto Raptors superstar Kawhi Leonard averaged 31 points and 8 rebounds throughout the playoffs, but will he be able to match that performance when he will more than likely have to chase Steph Curry around screens. Also, Golden State has a plethora of defenders to guard Kawhi, such as Klay Thompson, Andre Iguodala, and possibly Kevin Durant if he plays.

A key factor to the Raptors even making this a respectable series, is which Kyle Lowry and Marc Gasol will show up? Both players have been up and down throughout the playoffs, but as of late have shown up in big moments. If they don’t get star struck and show up this s could possibly be an interesting series.

Also, Fred VanVleet and Norman Powell must play well as they did in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Basically, the Toronto Raptors team has to play perfectly in order to have a shot of beating the Golden State Warriors.

The Golden State Warriors come into the NBA Finals banged up, but that really hasn’t affected them throughout the playoffs. There’s a reason why this team has gone to five straight Finals, they have gone through each adversity and persevered through it. 

There are rumors that DeMarcus Cousins will play tonight in game one, if that’s true it could be a long series for the Toronto Raptors. 

Steph Curry has been averaging 27 points per game, six rebounds per game, and five assists per game.

Klay Thompson has averaged 19 points per game and 1.5 steals per game.

Kevin Durant who’s still questionable to play in the finals is averaging 34 points per game.

I have the Golden State Warriors winning 4-1 against the Toronto Raptors. Comment below or mention us on Twitter @blogaccess1on1, to let us know who you think will win the 2019 NBA Finals.

The Golden State Warriors Rout the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game One



Last night game one of the NBA Finals was everything we expected and then some.

The first quarter was a dunk fest. One of the most impressive dunks of the game, was when LeBron James dunked on JaVale McGee. At the end of the first quarter, the Golden State Warriors led 35-30. You would think it was going to be a close game.

In the second quarter, the Warriors slowly started to pull away. The tandem of Steph Curry & Kevin Durant continued to torment the Cleveland Cavaliers. Kyrie Irving, LeBron James, & Kevin Love did all they could to counter the Warriors dominance.

In the third quarter, the Warriors stopped throwing jabs to the Cavs. The Warriors started throwing haymakers that were connecting. Steph Curry & Kevin Durant made three-point shot after three-point shot. Even Draymond Green chimed in with a three-point shot of his own. At the end of third quarter, the Warriors lead the Cavaliers 93-72.

In the fourth quarter, both teams knew this game was over and had their bench players in the game. The Warriors went on to win game one of the NBA Finals 113-91.

The Golden Warriors had a lot of positive spots in game one. Kevin Durant finished with 38 points, eight rebounds, and eight assists. Steph Curry finished with 28 points, ten assists, six rebounds, and three steals. Even through foul trouble, Draymond Green finished with nine points and 11 rebounds. Even Zaza Pachulia finished with eight points and six rebounds. Anytime Klay Thompson struggles shooting the ball and only finishes with six points and the Warriors still win by 22. The Cavaliers are in deep trouble.

Although the Cavs played horrible last night, they did have a few bright spots. LeBron James finished with 28 points, 15 rebounds, eight assists, and two blocks. Kyrie Irving finished with 24 points. Kevin Love finished with 15 points, 21 rebounds, and three blocks. Tristan Thompson was nonexistent finishing with zero points and four rebounds. Tristan must play better if the Cavs want to have a shot of beating the Warriors.

The Cleveland Cavaliers finished with 20 turnovers, whereas the Golden State Warriors finished with only four turnovers. Turnovers were a key to Golden State's rout of the Cavs.

Game two will take place on Sunday, June 4, at 8 PM ET on ESPN at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif.

2017 NBA Finals Preview

 Today starts the 2017 NBA Finals, a rematch between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors. Last year the Warriors blew a 3-1 lead to the Cavaliers. 

This past off season the Warriors signed, superstar small forward, Kevin Durant to replace the horrific shooting of Harrison Barnes in last year's NBA Finals. The signing of Kevin Durant turned the Warriors team from a great team to a juggernaut. 

The Cavs and Warriors played twice against each other this season. The Cavs won the first game on Christmas Day, in Cleveland, on a game-winner jumper by Kyrie Irving 109-108. In the second game, the Warriors gave the Cavaliers a reality check beating them 126-91 at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Ca.

The key to the Cavaliers winning the NBA Finals is winning game one tonight to set the tone. Also, LeBron can't be passive at all this whole series he needs to be aggressive at all times. Kyrie just needs to continue to be Kyrie. The wildcard for the Cavaliers, if they want to upset the Warriors in the series, is which Kevin Love will show up the Minnesota Kevin Love, or the stand around and watch Kyrie and LeBron do all the work, Kevin Love. Iman Shumpert must find a way to at least slowdown Klay Thompson. Last but not least, the Cavaliers need their shooters, JR Smith, Kyle Korver & Channing Frye to knock down their three-point shots. 

The keys to the Golden State Warriors winning this NBA Finals is, Kevin Durant just needs to play better than Harrison Barnes did last year. Steph Curry just needs to be Steph Curry. Draymond Green needs to continue to be the energy guy, do the dirty work on the rebounds, score, and pile up assists. Klay Thompson needs to play every game this NBA Finals like he played game five of last year's NBA Finals. The last key for the Golden State Warriors to win the NBA Finals is their bench must give them production. Everyone else just needs to just needs to play their role and play it well. 

The 2017 NBA Finals starts tonight 9 PM ET on ABC. Saying this series will be exciting is an understatement.
