Watched that game in Canada (different broadcaster) and didn't know about the "dagger" thing until a couple of months later. Great comment and will stick. Awesome win!
0:23 What we heard in Canada: "Kawhi up top, looks at the clock, for the wiiiiiiiin ... GOT IT!!!!!! KAWHI LEONARD WITH THE GAME WINNER! HANGING IN THE AIR! THE BALL SUSPENDED IN AIR!!!"
And that's why we love the Raptors, they are the most exciting and electrifying team in NBA since the Vince Carter and Tracy Mcgrady era till the present. They need to make a blockboster movie about this Raptors team and how they scouted their players and coaches from different parts of the world to make this championship team.
He didnt even choke last 2 years that was all demar but of course all the blame goes on kyle cause he doesnt take tough fadeaways all the time and he cant dunk
- Hence the trade for Kawhi. Masai took a gamble on a player that when healthy could be terrific in the clutch. DeMar was widely popular as a Raptor but his playoff performances left a lot to be desired.
@@terrencecoccoli524 if your upset why dont you keep it to yourself why do you have to display your saltyness and sore loserness to everyone, its embarassing
This championship was extra special because it reminds of the old school days before super star teams when you had one superstar and had to have a strong team of players who were well coached in order to win.
This hasn't been the best year for me personally, but the fact that the team that I love and have supported for 20 years from afar (Peru) got it's first championship makes up for it.
Me too. Since I'm not used to seeing the Raptors advance further than 2nd round, I forgot how long the playoffs are. Kawhi's last shot feels like a life time ago now. It's great that us Torontonians and Canadians finally get to experience this. It's like sequence of great moments one after another.
- The Orlando series was their easiest series of the playoffs as it turned out. The Sixers, Bucks, and Warriors gave the Raptors three long and tough series in a row. Glad to see the Raptors grind it out and win all three. The Raptors of old probably wouldn't have made it past the Sixers series. These Raptors, with Kawhi leading the way, they weren't going to be denied this time. :-)
The Raps were so humble this year. They'd make a big play and their only celebration was to jog back and play D. They had the focus and the intensity of a champion....that shit isn't optional.
Golden nugget of wisdom Kawhi’s mentality has rubbed on his teammates. Keeping his head down and was never showing off or being disrespectful after every highlight.
This was a great run and I’m so happy to witness this in my lifetime. There was a point the media had said the series was over against the Bucks but then Raptors took over with Four straight wins. The best part is going against a heavily favored Golden state in the finals and beating them four games at their home. A part of the championship still hasn’t sunk in. I guess when you lower your expectations, results will overwhelm and surprise you. Kawhi will always be one of the best to play as a Raptor and he had the best supporting teammates. They all deserved it and were destined to win it.
4:45 one of my favourite layups of ALL TIME. Instantly thought about jordan switching hands on his layup. The way kawhi sized up between his legs, then hop stepped right into the defenders chest, avoids the big by going reverse whilst on his way, great spin of the board and in. The announcers reaction was amazing as well👍🏾.
Definitely, it’s a difficult angle to see the athleticism required to hit that but that’s a tough shot It’s like an up&under then back up again. Almost as dope as Jamal Murray’s layup on LeBron in the bubble
The raptors were down in the first three series at some point! ORL leads 1-0, PHI leads 2-1, MIL leads 2-0 and they were able to come back! Also the raptors were never down vs GSW!
It still baffles me how the raps won it all. Beat the sixers with butler Simmons Harris and Embiid that’s an insanely talented group. Not only that but knocked off the bucks and their three point barrage and the MVP. Then beating the warriors and their core four as well. This was such an underrated run. Simmons Embiid butler giannis steph durant Thompson that’s not an easy thing to do.
The NBA script was already written that year, but Masai Ujiri and 2019 Kawhi went off it and changed history. Definitely one of the most dominant single season that a single player had in these past few years. No one was expecting the Raptors to win it all, it was an incredible time to be a fan. Bittersweet that it only lasted a year, still thankful for that squad tho.
Kawhi really did become the greatest Raptor ever in a single season. All his silent work paid off. Respect ! Also, now that the season has ended, peep this dope fight compilation ruclips.net/video/iAa4PunIBvo/видео.html
@@yassinekhedid345 nope i agree with him, obivoulsy Lenoard is a better player but lowry is the greatest raptor of all time cause hes had to be their at the good times and the bad. Being the "greatest" doesnt mean it has to do with skill, its all a perspective
So nice for Toronto to finally have another major league championship again, the 26 year sporting drought in the city is finally over. Move aside 92' & 93' Blue Jays, lets just hope its not another 26 years now lol.
One of the best playoff runs ever!!!!!! Let’s go raptors!!!!!! One of the best teams we will ever have. We got the best season of Kwahi, but it mixed perfectly with prime Lowry, a young Siakam, and vets Gasol/Green/Ibaka. Perfect team! I didn’t even mention Vanvleet
I think this is the closest well get to seeing a Real life 2K MyCareer player. This dude joins a team thats not starstudded with him being really the only PROVEN superstar on the team and carried them to the promise land after they fell short a season before. Its just video game stuff man kawhi was different
All of Toronto 2019 players are on their prime. This lineup can destroy even the Kobe-Shaq or Jordan-Pippen or Spurs big3 roster. In my opinion, a complete team from PG to Center even the bench
i have faith that raptors will still finish really well this year as long as they don't get injuries. their new player Sagaba Konate is an insane player, why did i never hear of him til now... he has super powers. best shot blocker i've seen , ever, even crazier than Gobert and Ibaka
Nobody mentions that the home team only won 1 game in the series which was Toronto as well in the very first game. The Raptors beat the rolling Warriors and put that mental disposition in their heads right from the jump of the 2019 Finals. That game would prove massive as neither team truly dominated on either of their home courts which usually is the difference. The injuries and the part owner sitting courtside pushing on Lowry didnt help the Warriors chances but Curry flat out missed clutch shots, Raptors were a much better team overall and should have arguably won all 6 games. Warriors got off the hook twice and still didnt matter, Toronto Raptors got heart and truly deserve to be the NBA Champs. Down 0-2 to Milwaukee and reel off four straight wins to advance and beat the warriors dynasty in the finals, its amazing.
Kawhi - Siakam - Lowry - Gasol - Green - Ibaka - VanVleet - Powell Incredible depth and a defensive beast, they could also play big, small and anything in between they had an answer for any offence thrown at them.
"Is this the dagger?? OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH GAME SERIES, TORONTO HAS WON!!!" that will *never* leave my memory

There is already - open gym.

Also nice to see a team that doesn't live and die by the 3 and that plays tenacious defense win it all.
DBJMK I would reminisce on those days. Can't believe our team brought that type of play back
We'll to be fair Marc gasol could be an all star and Toronto without Kawhi is a playoff team...
So before mj then.
@@spoonsVSforks
Marc Gasol today and at the time was not gonna be an All Star
He was gassed by the time he left Memphis

Keep your chin up Manuel...things will fall in place!!!
Keep going bro, things will get better
I hope you're doing better bro

Inject this entire video into my veins
I just crushed this video into powder, made a line, and snorted it straight to the brain. WHAT A RUSH!
This is the rising of the Raptors i will never forget this wonderfull season for my home city as a fellow toronto home boi

I honestly thought it was over when we were down 0-2 to the Bucks, once they tied that series up I knew they were going to the final.
ORL sucks the first game was a game winner for orlando and raptors won 4 games straight
Its crazy, I remember all of these moments so vividly, what a team and run this was! This video brings me so much joy every time
This is still so sweet to watch in Feb 2020

Good memories Toronto was exciting that year 🏆💯
Man.. just look at Siakam's hangtime at 11:22 in the end. He looked a lot more athletic and spicy before the pandemic :(
Way better all-around player now, though. He’s got a heavier workload to carry and needs to conserve energy.
Fire vid less go Raptors
What an unbelievable time. So many memories.
