Almost Freaking Nobody is Betting on the Raptors in Game 1

The Toronto Raptors are about to face their biggest challenge of the NBA playoffs so far, as they prepare to take on the Western Conference juggernaut Golden State Warriors. This'll be Golden State's fifth Finals appearance in a row, cementing themselves as one of the best teams ever assembled.

Obviously, the Warriors are favored in the series. But to the surprise of some fans, the Raptors are actually favored in Game 1 in Toronto, leading to everyone and their mother placing their bets on Golden State.

91 percent, wow. A lot of people could end up losing their money after Game 1 if Kawhi Leonard has one of his vintage performances.

Beating Steph Curry and co. would cement the Raps as having made one of the most remarkable playoff runs by any team in NBA history.

You'd be hard pressed to find anyone who truly believes the Raptors will beat the Warriors in this Best-of-7. But, anything can happen in sports. However, asking the Raps to win Game 1 on their home floor isn't too much of a challenge, right?
