As a sixers fan I can’t believe I let myself live through this again.

I will never forget, I was outside with that crowd in the rain and time stood still as Kawhi took the shot, the energy and screaming at the moment when it went in is the best memory of my 20 years of living. God I love sports.

“IS THIS THE DAGGER!?!?” Will probably be remembered for decades as one of the most iconic lines in basketball ever.

I love how Kawhi pulled up to Toronto, won a title, then dipped

1:43:44 is why i love marc gasol. doesn’t celebrate with his team, but first says great game to embiid because he knows how hard he worked.

"Gets off to Leonard, defended by Simmons, is this the dagger?"
And the rest was history.

This guy destroyed so many hopes and dreams last year. Literally making people cry. 😂

Kawhi and his shot is literally why I'm a basketball fan, someone who lives in western Canada I never really cared for it, but when I saw videos talking about his shot I was impressed, started following them, learning about the raptors history and never missed a game since, love that man and love this team

Kawhi Leonard was a terminator in the playoffs last season. Kawhi destroyed every team in his path to be a champ once again and the FMVP.

Watching in 2022, and this has gotta be one of the best shots in NBA history

Lowry deserves more respect. He does so many little things. Such tough defense. He is a goddamn bulldog out there.

I love the fact that even though Kawhi didn't even wanna be in Toronto and instead wanted to be in his home LA, and still worked hard and got a chip for the Raptors. True player right there 💯

Jimmy butler said ehh I'm outta philly after this game lol

That was probably one of my favorite announcer calls. Kevin Harland asking "Is this the dagger?" and both men going in unison. Perfectly called one of the most epic moments in basketball history, capturing the emotion: disbelief and frenzied joy of the arena crowd and the viewer watching at home. That didn't matter if you were a Sixers or Raptors fan, or just a plain basketball fan. Words can't describe some moments; just a gutteral yell. SImple call afterwards too... "Game!... Series!... Toronto has won!" and let the crowd noise and the pictures speak for themselves.
Lots of great announcers calling epic Toronto sports moments: Matt Devlin (our PxP guy), Kenny Albert calling the Bautista batflip, his dad Marv called the 2019 ECF where Toronto clinched the East, and Ernie Johnson called the Encarnacion wildcard walk-off. And of course, Toronto's own Dan Schulman was there for the Batflip on ESPN radio. Great voices, and my idols.

The effort Lowry put is just amazing, every little thing he do impacted the game so much and also big props to Ibaka

Hearing Anthony and Harlan makes me feel like I’m in 2K. 😂

„Is this the dagger?“
Kawhi‘s thoughts right at the moment: A ha ha ha ha 😂😂😂

So ironic how Kawhi is so "emotionless" and introverted and he makes me emotional. :)
