Warriors: Game 2

      Tonight's game in the NBA Finals tournament will be telling:  it is Game 2, with Toronto holding a 1-0 lead.  Yes, it is early.  Yes, Golden State is always dangerous.  Yes, KD might be ready to come off the bench and disrupt the Raptor's offense/defense.  But Game 1 blew away any thoughts of a sweep/walkover by the Warriors.  The pundits were hoping/demanding/ begging for: controversy, arguments, anything provocative that may offer some fodder for their story lines.
      So, tonight 's contest should be that game.  If, and it's a big "IF", the Warriors succumb to the Raptor's 3-point shooters, then, the pundits will have reams of story lines to pick from.  (1) the failure of(and of the obvious)----(2) Toronto's new coaching "genius"; (3)the emerging dominance of a first time-finals opponent; the demise of the NBA; why LeBron won't play for either team; the breakup of the Warriors; the end of the Warrior era; the new Warrior-move anxiety syndrome; Steph Curry's mental health;  Steve Kerr's mental health; Draymond Greene's anger;  Draymond's personality disorder; the Canadian effect; the long Canadian winter effect; the value of the Canadian dollar; Trump's threat of tariff's on Mexican goods; Chinese Army hacking of Warrior locker room banter; AOC's return to bartending; Joe Biden effect; Global warming; Climate change and the effect on a basketball during the first half of the contest; and many more.
6pm PDT- watch, if you dare.
