**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[numbah1grimey]

but now that i said it..and you've thought about it....tell me you cant unsee it

A LOT of people are autist out here right now, which is another reason why it ain’t far-fetched.

And I love klay. He's my 2nd favorite warrior. But he definitely has whatever The Good Doctor has.

BIG LEEMELONE @geno90221 y’all been here before? I drive by it to/from work every single day and finally pulled up. Place got line going out the door. Supposed to be fire

Never been but I've heard good things and been meaning to check it out. What did you get

And what the hell kinda shoes you got on?

And pull your damn pants up nino

 

[everysingletime]

As a mental health professional I have a hard time believing that klay has autism, even high functioning autism lol

Shrinking

It’s a shame his biggest blemish on his career is such a huge one. Mans is 6’9 270 being guarded by JJ barea like he was Bruce Bowen. I can’t defend bron in the Dallas series. I just can’t.

Somebody needs to change the voice pitch to make this compete

The best version I’ve seen so far...

 

[pums]

My dad has been spewing this sentiment since game 3. Their offensive alignment has been predictable

SAS is a content gawd

Bottom line is guys need to shoot better. Some change in placement/movement could help but I think we're missing shots we've made all year. We've never shot this badly for this long of a stretch.

The entire idea that Kawhi is shutting Giannis down by himself is wrong. No one is doing that. Lotta big bodies to his left, right and behind him. Usually Kyle Lowry is somewhere lying down on the ground beneath him as well. The entire team is gravitating to him and when shots aren't falling around him the lanes wont open up.

 

[hand2handking]

wrong topic

Series over tomorrow.

 

[sohi 23]

Series over tomorrow.

Yup. Coach Bud gunna keep running Giannis into the wall.

 

[servechilled81]

won't be long before he falls out with Harden, it's inevitable

Fixed for how you and a couple losers really feel

yeah, aight

 

[monstar]

If you talking NBA contract money, sure they can pay him the most Supermax or not

But off the court nah, especially if he went New York or LA

Bra again just stop. You realize Oakland sf are right next to silicon valley.
These guys have access to those meetings ask Iggy and KD

Just stop

You just saying **** that's sounds good at this point.

Like Silicon Valley is the only place in America an athlete can make investments.

It’s about damn time somebody said this about Harden.

Answer is pretty easy for me for the Bucks.

Don’t make Giannis the primary ball handler.

Put him in or around the block with brook.

Raptors are small, bad rebounders.

This will generate 2nd and 3rd chance opportunities.

Having Giannis as the primary ball handler AND rebounder ain’t working if Raptors are using the wall. It also tires Giannis out.

Instead of Giannis having like 18 rebs, him and Brook should have like 12 each.

This will also space the floor better, and give Brogdon, Bledsoe, and Middleton better looks

Only time Giannis should be handling the ball is in transition, in the halfcourt set rely on your guards

 

[Tony $now]

You love to see it

 

[leavemeglazzies]

This man really shook his head when Kawhi re-entered a game. That’s all I needed to know about Bron. Lebron is scared of competition.

Imagine the reaction on this forum if LeBron went west days after Kawhi signed with the Raptors... Instead of the other way around, which is what actually happened.

 

[flyerthandelta]

So we not gonna talk about how KD and Klay got snubbed on all nba?!!>!!

You’re not gunna get those individual accolades when you’re on a team like that. It is what it is.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

What Giannis needs to do more is get the ball with his back to the basket more so he can survey the floor better instead of getting the ball at the top and dribbling into 2 or 3 defenders every time making more difficult to pass out or get a shot up.

Kawhi didn’t “sign” with the Raptors. He got traded there. It’s wasn’t his choice, so I’m not sure what point you’re making.
