NBA 2018-2019 playoffs thread...finals is set..”Warriors vs Raptors 2-4” Raptors win the title!!!

cause clearly doing your thing in here is way more important than the outcome
literally you stopped posting in here after game 4 of the houston series during the games and THEY DIDN'T LOSE A SINGLE GAME

you come back and post tonight
and what happens

that's just hoe ass shit on YOUR part.

keep it up
Yes I’m a GOD I control the universe and wins and losses of sports teams
 
I thought Gasol wouldn't be a factor with the way GS force teams to play small but Toronto didn't give in. Gasol was surprisingly effective on defense, that's really the key if he's not a liability on defense.


they already made the adjustment in the 2nd half. instead of relying on the trap they let the switch happen and curry cooked gasol all the way out of the game.
 
That’s the finals, people step up and play well. Siakam had it too easy, but on the other hand Lowry and Leonard will not play like shit this entire series either.

Curry and Klay scored a combined 55 pts which isn’t too bad, but who is going to step up and add another 15-20? The next highest points after Klay and Steph was Green with 10 pts, that shit ain’t enough.
The problem was shitty defense and Klay and Dray not playing well. It won’t happen next game

I feel you but see Gasol is better than all GS big man combined on defense and offense.

He can pass and casually be agile when he drives in the lane or is trailing.

And then being this nigga 7 feet he can jump out and take them Mulattos off the 3 point line or when they drive to the lane he big as shit.

He playing like Rasheed

THEN like how 04 pistons was u got a big nigga in Ibaka or Siakim to meet u off the other block. Like Ben WALLACE.

This ain’t no weak ass Capela or them white boys in Portland.

I'm not worried because it makes no sense to worry about some shit you can't control. It has nothing to do with whether we'll win or should win or will def win.

And miss me with fucking injury talk
please forever don't talk about someone coming back.
thanks
Your stating the obvious with what you can’t control we all know that about sports
With that said

Length is the weakness
You didn’t get length with Cleveland or any team out west besides Spurs

Kwahi Revenge!!!! Y’all ordered ZaZa to do that foul shit
 
True, but the Warriors also had 16 turnovers to Toronto’s 7.

I think it was a combination of a few things
they didn't play defense tonight
Kerr gamble did not pay off because Saikam can make plays off the trap.

Might have to change that up or see if he can continue to hit those shots

Curry adjusted on Gasol’s defense on the pick and roll. Instead of looking to pass, Curry needs to continue to keep his dribble and go around Gasol

When a team hit those circus shots. You just have call it a night

Nah you tried to say I better be worried as if I was talking about the outcome of the series
I clarified that I wasn't worried about it because I can't control it so worry would be the wrong word to use for me.

Length isn't the weakness. Play some defense. Warriors got the shots they wanted. Toronto had wide open shots which means they weren't playing good defense consistently and you can't do that in the nba finals.

And here you go we talking sensible then you come with the dumb bullshit
Kawhi twisted his fucking knee in the earlier round missed game 6 where the spurs won
then twisted his knee ON HIS OWN TEAMMATE
and then the Zaza thing happened

By the way Zaza bumped Kd's knee and Steph's knee and injured them at different points too

so by your logic we ordered that clumsy dude to hurt them too???

exactly
 
To me, that’s lack of point guarding and Nurse not doing a better job of recognizing that.

Leonard is a ball handler to a degree and a play maker to a degree, but I think late in game he’s best served get his shots off of set plays.

Yes, meant double team
Thats a good point but I think Lowry was a beast tonight. He’s a pure PG. Foul trouble hurt them and Fleets not really a PG

Siakam is still young to this moment. His inexperience will come out the further we go in this series.

He had nothing to lose this game and he’ll be able to do the same in game two. As long as the Raptors lead the series, he’ll have less pressure and can take chances.

Right. Lowry’s presence late game will be important for ball handling and play making purposes.

Van Fleet can’t handle that pressure yet. You seen that. When the GS starts turning that heat up on defense, the only two people that can handle that late game pressure is Leonard and Lowry.

I’ve been talking big shit about Lowry all playoffs, but all he need to do is be a veteran.
 
Siakam plays what position again? Like I said, if you have the right personnel, you should be able to take advantage of the injuries to Golden State.

Raptors size combined with that slow approach to offense and setting up half court offense throws the warriors off rhythm, top that off with kawhli is the middle zoning around looking for steals. Warriors can't handle big, athletes we seen lebron go off solo against the warriors time in and out. This is the "punch in the mouth" tyson talked about to throw someone of that system approach.

Raptors looking like the BBALL version of the old 80s steelers.....
 
I have no voice and I might be partially deaf. It was loud as fuck there. I loved every minute of it. I hate Draymond Green. Curry is fucking amazing...almost impossible to guard. Boogie looked really rusty...6 weeks without ballin showed. My Raptors came thru...I'm proud of them. We just gotta take it one game at a time. It's only going to get harder.
