Were you impressed by Kawhi Leonard's performance?

As a Spurs fan, I hope Kawhi stays in Toronto. He's making a tremendous impact there. That boy can hoop!

Kawhi is guarding Giannis and scoring 35+ and not at 100%? People underestimated Kawhi's superstar influence, offensive potential and team leadership.

Kawhi Leonard is playing like Toronto is his home. I am from Brooklyn New York and I'm saying this wishing he would play for us, but Canada is his destination to me. The people love him and his demeanor and Canada is a beautiful country. This is his team and his country to have. Not a state but a country. Kawhi needs to stay in Canada and finish what he started there.

Crazy to think Kawhi has already given us Rap fans one of the greatest shots ever made in franchise history and is 1 win away from another historic moment for Toronto. All in one season. It would be heartbreaking to see him go.

I remember when people were saying that this series was over after just Game 1. But that's what happens when you get to playoff time. The two best teams in the conference going head to head will provide unexpected results. Talk about putting the team on his back. Kawhi is getting it done in both phases.

All those "analysts" that claimed giannis was the undisputed best player in the nba are punching the air right now.

I'm glad I'm glad Cris Carter gives Nick Nurse some credit for helping Kawhi develop his game - in a way that Popovich didn't. Nurse is a lot better coach than many give him credit for.

You could see that Giannis is shook it's written all over his face he's never been in this high pressure situation and has never faced anyone like kawhi before

Kustok and Klatt need a show. They both give off such a similar energy and ALWAYS come with the facts

Nick makes a great point about Kawhi's minutes, keeping him fresh for the Fourth. It's the load management on the micro level!

Did you guys know Chris Carter knows Kawhi???

Toronto, July 1st, 12:00AM. Kawhi: “I STAY!”

Sitting Danny Green down has been the best move for Raptors

Giannis: "The East is open now that LeBron isn't playing" Kawhi: "nah, sit down Greek boi"

Spurs fan here, but I love the love Kawhi is getting right now because of this series. People are realizing that amidst all the bad publicity this guy is a stud on the court, has a heart of a lion and a great person. Things just did'nt work out in San Antonio. Love this.

Chris 'I'm related to Kawhi' Carter People forget that Coach Nurse is a career coach. He's won at every level, except the NBA...yet. Crazy to think that Nurse has outcoached renowned & respected NBA coaches, in his 1st season of being an NBA head coach!! I truly don't know how or why he hasn't been mentioned or nominated as COTY Raps in 6, in the 6ix.

Chris Carter: " I knew Kawhi was going to have a great game as soon as I saw him walk his first steps."

Media: The Bucks are gonna show the world why they’re the number one team in the East. Kawhi: Hold my claw.

Giannis comming to Toronto in 2021. Toronto has the largest Greek community in North America, and he is close to Masai Ujiri, he helped his family emigrate from Nigeria to Greece.

Not to mention the raptors have won 3 straight after down 2

Sarah Kustok is extremely astute; great BB analyst.

Kawhi 6 7 guards Giannis with size and strength of a center 6 11. Kawhi is a beast.

Impressed too, that Nurse is out-coaching Bud, pulling all the right strings. Coach Bud looks like he's gonna cry soon.

What we have learned from this series: Kawhi is clearly a better player than The Greek Freak, who will be MVP He has some sort of injury, and he's STILL BETTER than The Greek Freak

Lol Nick said Bucks in 6 and is backtracking now smh

Masai Ujiri for prime minister , Coach Nurse for Minister of defense , Kawhi for Nobel peace prize and everything else.

Wow! Toronto has home court advantage.

Nick Nurse also a good coach knowing when and where to place each player.

Kawhi resigning in Toronto create a new Dominant team of the east for years to come .

I think Kawhi Leonard and the Raptos will win G6. Then, Kawhi Leonard will pick up where he left when he was injured by Zaza (SA up +23) and win finals in G6 too. As Spurs fun I want Raptors to become next Champs.

I can't believe that all it took was kawhi switching onto giannis in game 3...wow

I really like Sarah Kustok. She is articulate, knowledgeable, and confident. I want to see a female commentator participate in the conversation like her, or it feels like it isn't equality when a female commentator doesn't actively participate.

I truly believe the Raps can't be stopped in game 6. The energy going into this and how hyped our fans will be in the ACC tonight will be unmatched

I love when Kustok comes on the show. She's so smart and beautiful.

That woman analyst is the best analyst (men or women) who has commented on game 5 out of anyone on TV

Very impressive to be scoring 30+ points in a game and holding the Greek Freak down.. Kawhi is the man....

kawhi is probably a top 5 defender of all time. the way he is containing giannis who is supposedly unguardable is insane and that’s not even talking about his offense and leadership.

Hands down some of THE BEST analysis I’ve heard on the Raptors. Cris, Nick & Jenna you guys are crushing it. Go Raptors!! #wethenorth

FINALLY! someone who speaks the truth.

Kawhi made Giannis look ordinary, dude playing hurt and outplaying healthy players and inspiring his teammates cause if kawhi hurt and doing this i got no escuse. 👌🏾

This was a great take. Had to leave a comment saying amazing job. Gonna subscribe. Thanks y’all & keep it up

"He will rip your heart out" geez. I do agree though.

I love Sarah's take, she's always on point. Most women on sports media have no clue what they're talking about.

I am now more than ever convinced that if Raptors win the next game they have a very real possibility of re-signing Kawhi. Familiarity, comfort, having a team which builds and rallies around you, a coach to give you load management, and the ability to shine and play some of the BEST basketball in your career and being paid tens of millions more than other teams.......it won't be one single factor but a totality of several things.

Chris Carter: I gave birth to Kawhi. Kawhi:

Kawhi on Raptors and recuit one more all star.. locked in

Sarah kustok vs Lexington Steele....

I love to see good sport journalism in tv, here in Spain you don't see a table where there is parity, and people are usually yelling to each other.

Sarah and Jenna are looking good

The media disrespected the raptors and now the joke is on them

Nick's takes continue to impress me. Not taking away from CC but Nick gives a different feel to the show

For other teams what's scary is Kawhi's development as a passer. As Nick said passing was really his only weaknesses; not bad, but average. If he can consistently pass as well as he did in game 5 he IS the best player in the league by far.

Raptors are going to the finals!

Demar Died for this

Lowkey Sarah has some of the best analysis from every sport media panel I’ve seen so far covering this series. Well done!

Kustok is so good

Get Kustok on the show more. Great analysis and well spoken!

Sarah Kustok ur are right in so so so many ways

CC was referring to Skip Bayless 🤣

When drake makes a new song, the beat is gonna be Kawhi’s laugh.

Hate how they pronounce Toronto “tErHaNo”

Bucks in 7 sorry not sorry

chris carter be like in 1980 my brother was playing ball with kawhis uncle in high school all american game in cali haha

The Raptors deserved to win game 5 and they earned the victory playing on the road in Milwaukee. They were the better and far greater team than compared to the Bucks whom played great in the first quarter to start the game off, but then they were outplayed in the next three quarters being dominated especially in the last final fourth. Overall, based on their performance, they deserved to lose and for the Raps, they were big time with their bench players playing great and solid hitting clutch shots mainly from Freddy whom hit 7 three pointers scoring 21 points in total which was impressive and terrific. That was the major factor of the game in him being their x factor because without VanVleet making those shots, the Raps don't win this game. As well, Kawhi was just dominant again in another masterful game performing plus playing at a high level scoring 35 points and picking up a career high in assists with 9 in total. He was phenomenal overall with his performance willing his Raps team to one of the biggest wins in their franchise history with the next game 6 being the biggest game of their teams playoff season run in franchise playing at home in Toronto. It will be a crazy and key game for creating and achieving more history for the Toronto Raptors as game 6 will be very significant and more meaningful than just another game for eliminating the Bucks. This one will change the entire franchise as a whole if the Raps are able to win clinching not only the series, but becoming eastern conference champs for the first time ever and playing in their very first NBA finals against the Warriors. Thus, all of these things are very tremendous factors for the organization which will be achieved and accomplished after tomorrows game 6. The Raps will win this series in 6. They just devastated the Bucks players and fans hearts after winning game 5. The team is now heartbroken and not mentally confident in their minds for themselves that they will be able to win 2 straight games in a row. Therefore, the Raps have gained all of the momentum and competitive advantage winning three straights games and about the secure a fourth straight in eliminating the Bucks in 6 games! Let's go Raps! Time for history and new records or goals to be achieved!!!

He is bar none the best two way player in the league now. And top 3 overall.

Fred van vleet.. grew up this day

Stay where you appreciated. U.S. off-season Canada for work.

Sarah and Nick has some good dynamics.

Kustok or whatever her name is, that woman is gloriously glowing i mean Jesus🤯

Chris "I know Kawhi" Carter

Chris with the logic and truth. HE STAY.

Canadian invented the basketball Kawhi reinvented the Raptors

I watch First Things First every day before either First Take or Undisputed, but somehow I have to search for this while those two pop-up in my “Home” section. Wtf KZfaq, do these guys just not troll enough or give hot enough takes??

Let the guy finish the playoffs. That a question if for the off season. Chris thanks for being a voice for a guy. He need it for the haters.

Sarah Kustok's a treat to watch!

Toronto will win a championship!!

This group of commentators are so much better than Skip. These people talk about facts and not BS bias that Skip has been saying to get his ratings up.

I'm a fun guy, and I stay!

Chris' every sentence starts with: I know people very close to .

Chris carter when the name of any player is taken "I know people who are close to him". Man probably is close to people who are close to Jimmer friddette

This’s a great show they should replace their start time slot either 930 or 12pm

People go on endlessly with talk about Kawhi leaving for LA of NY. The argument that the situation with the LA Clippers and New York Knicks is superior to that of the Toronto Raptors has never held water. The Raptors organization is as good as they come from top to bottom, the Raptors are a championship contender, he gets to play in one of the world's great cities, and Kawhi gets to play in a country that never bailed on him. Leaving for LA or NY doesn't make any sense.

Kawhi was almost LeBron level in that game! Amazing.

I would love to hear Sarah’s inside voice when no one is around ;)

Monday morning quarterbacking...If gianis was the Víctor all praise whould be on to Him like oh he is so unstoppable.

Sarah the best commentator out.

Sarah couldn't of said it no better.She was right on point.

I've been saying all year that Kawhi realized he's got a good situation in Toronto. Never mind the winter weather. That's only temporary. There's far more upside to staying with the Raptors than taking several steps backwards to joining either of the two existing L.A. teams. Age and time is going to start becoming a factor for him. He doesn't have years to waste.

Kustok is literally female Chris Broussard.

Hi Jenna 💐

Imagine thinking Giannis (a great player with little playoff experience would beat kawhi (a 2x dpoty finals mvp)

Very true on Nick Wright praising Nurse on pulling Green out and recognizing that he is the weak link right in the early get go.

Thank you Sarah, Cris and Nick. Finally...a bunch of American sports talking heads who are paying attention...

Well what happened in the finals that year when he took over? Cmon cc! They tried to pass him the torch but he wasn’t really ready

Kawhi for President

Fun guy

Pop and Parker FVCKED up BAD! There's some people you just don't mess with, and Kawhi is one.

VanVleet really stepped up for the Raptors. Also, Kawhi was robbed of First All-Defensive Team.

I wish she have a talk show
