The Toronto Raptors did their job when they won Game 3 on the road. Worst case scenario they were going to split the two games in Oakland and be heading home tied 2-2.
But that wasn’t good enough for this year’s Raptors team. The sharks didn’t settle for a split. When they smelt blood in the water, they went for it.
The Raptors started the game off poorly. Golden State was generating easy looks through confusion and back screens at one end; Toronto failed to knock down several open looks at the other. With 55 seconds remaining in the first quarter, the Warriors were up 11.
