Raptors win on a last second shot 92-90.  They advanced to the Conference Final, and will play Milwaukee.

What an exciting finish!  Kawhi got the ball in his hands with 4 seconds left and ran all the way to the opposite side of the court before launching the shot with less than a second to go.  The buzzer-beater shot at first looked like it would bounce away from the net, but it bounced 3 or 4 times and went in. It was like a movie moment, as one of the Raptors players said after the game.

Now that they've advanced to the final four, they will try to put the ball through the ring against the Milwaukee Bucks, which I hear is no easy task.

Most exciting sports moment since Joe Carter's Home Run.

Relive the magic moment!



They talk about Kawhi being a stoic guy who doesn't talk much or express his emotions, but look at his face at the end of this clip...

Bautista's bat-flip home run in 2015 tops it, IMHO. Very exciting, although the Raptors will have their work cut out for them against the Bucks.

Uhh no. That home run was a compelling moment but it was a walk-off. They still had to finish the game off.

This was a singular moment. And the comical nature of the shot only made it more compelling.

I think there are many exciting sports moments within the last 25 years:

2019: San Jose sores 4 goals, and ultimately defeats the Golden Knights in OT game 7
2015: Baseball: Bautista walk off home run.
2008:  Eli Manning shocks the Patroits, with a last second TD to win the Super Bowl against the undefeated Pats.
2010: Kane's OT goal in Game 6 vs the Flyers (Stanley cup winning goal)
2010: The Golden Goal! Sidney Crosby scores in OT to give Canada a Gold Medal.
2004: Martin Gelinas OT goal vs Vancouver wins the game 7, and Flames advance to Cup finals.
2004: Red Sox come back from a 3-0 series deficit to defeat the Yankees, and advance to the World Series for first time in nearly a century.
1999: Brett Hull scores in OT to lead the Dallas Stars over the Buffalo Sabres in the Stanley Cup

The Bautista HR was not a Walk-Off. Remember the pitcher got all butthurt about the bat flip and there was almost a fight. They still had a few innings left to play.

A more exciting walk off for the Jays was the following year when they swept the Rangers on a crazy play.


But the theatrics of the Kawai show was tough to beat.

I'm not a big baseball fan, but that 2015 game was crazy.  One of the most exciting games I have ever seen. The Raptors game was definitely up there too.

Watched 3/4 of the game last night on and off.  They led almost the whole way so I guess they won last night huh ?  No need to check the score right ?

Once again the Raptors have failed to put the ball through the net!  This time they were completely blown out. I don't think they narrowed the Bucks' lead to less than 15 points during the time I was watching.

Watched almost the whole game.  Basketball sucks in the way that when you get behind it's really really boring...

Raptors were up by 5 with less than two minutes to go. They blew it. Game is going to OT, which will be won by Milwaukee
