Gameday: Bucks @ Raptors, May 25 — Game 6
“I love Toronto, I love this team, and we are going to the NBA Finals.” Ugh, Drake why you gotta do us like that? The jubilation of a momentum shifting road victory has put the Toronto Raptors firmly into the driver’s seat to earn their first ever Eastern Conference crown, but there is still a…
