“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” -Austin 3:16
It was a near inevitability that the Warriors would tie up the NBA Finals in Game 2, as history has shown that you have a better chance of getting down a sleeve of saltines after a bong rip than the Warriors losing back-to-back games.
And you had to expect that Drake, the dude who in Game 1 trolled Steph Curry, called Draymond “trash” and was more eccentric on the sidelines than Richard Simmons, would get his.
Luckily for NBA Twitter, the Raptors loss came with some Renaissance painting-esque photos of Drake looking sad in key moments upon realizing that the Warriors were doing Warrior things and storming back to tie the series. Please enjoy them as much as I did.

Rest in peace, Drizzy. This tweet was the fatal blow.

I pray to the meme gods that Drake is present for the games in Oakland.
