NBA Finals 2019: 3 Talking points from Golden State Warriors vs Toronto Raptors - Game 1

#3 Stephen Curry continues to lead from the front as Drake's courtside antics reach a fever pitch

Golden State doesn't have homecourt advantage in the Finals this year.

Despite Toronto cramping Curry for contested threes off screens, the 2-time MVP managed to put together a game-high total of 34 points including a perfect 14-14 show from the foul line. With the four made three-pointers in this contest, Curry now has the most three-pointers in NBA Finals history with 102 to his name.

He has been the one true leader for this resilient Warriors side ever since Durant exited the picture with a calf strain injury. Steph is averaging 27.3 ppg in this year's playoffs and looks focussed enough to bag the coveted Finals MVP hardware that has evaded him thus far.

Entwined with the Raptors' surge to fame has been rapper Drake's courtside antics that have managed to get under the opponent's skin consistently. This series will seemingly be no different.

After GSW's game 1 loss, Drake and Green seemed to have a war of words where it clearly looked like the infamous courtside superfan called Draymond 'trash'.
