**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[3god]

You still talking **** after claiming Kawhi couldn’t lead the Raptors to the finals as a #1 option?

Warriors in 7. And I’ll still be right.

 

[freeze]

The Raptors are a very good team. I had them pegged to come out the east since before Christmas. It’s just the Dubs have been in cruise control all season toward a ring we thought was inevitable. Them winning now is almost an underdog scenario. That’s the crazy part.

and you know america loves an underdog. they come back n win....this gotta be made into a movie. Michael Ealy will be curry

 

[superblytrife]

So Boogie gonna be crying on bench like Karl Malone was in 04?

Did this really happen? Glorious.

I was entirely too drunk that night to remember.

Let’s stop with the dumb *** WHAT IFS... the only WHAT IF that matters is “WHAT IF KD was healthy?” We know the answer.

The Raptors would win in 7 instead of 5.

 

[mr s j king]

Yes, he’s potentially getting a ring and maybe another chance at contending next year. With the injuries he’s sustained and his play so far since coming back for the finals he’d be luck to start on a contender outside of GS

They give out second place rings?

Y’all need to give the Raptors some credit man. Most of the things I’m reading are injuries this injuries that. This is a very very good and disciplined Raptors team. Miles ahead of GS defensively. GS literally looks lost out there, as if they never played with each other.

I’ve said they’ve been the better team this series.

What if’s are gonna dominate this finals regardless of what direction it goes in. However I will say that “IF” the Warriors win it, the excuses and if’s on Toronto’s end will be abundant

They dominate nothing

 

[lamekilla]

But Warriors had Klay and Kevon game 1 and still lost.

Would it really be that different?

They won game 2 though. There was a lapse in rhythm with them out and Steph over extended himself to no avail. Fast forward game 4 and you have an over extended Steph and a return from injury Klay trying to keep up with a Raptors team in rhythm. This 2 day window and KD potentially returning is gonna reset everything. Dubs are playing with their back against the wall, let’s see what they really got.

Raptors win by 5 instead of 15

Son mad as hell ain't he

Son mad as hell ain't he

We all got robbed of a classic finals.

 

[lamekilla]

and you know aerica loves an underdog. they come back n win....this gotta be made into a movie. Michael Ealy will be curry

get this ***** Forrest Whitaker to be Draymond. Oscar status easy.

They give out second place rings?

The series isn’t over. Are we really counting out the Dubs?

They dominate nothing

If the Raptors end up losing this I will be watching your post very closely for an excuse

Wrong.

- same people who said if Kyrie and Love wasn’t hurt.

Injuries are part of the game. It’s unfortunate but Toronto has earned it if they win this series.

Raps lose and KD doesn’t step foot on court IDC. Raps lose and KD is the reason he’s still a ***. What else would you like to watch for?

You’re comparing KYRIE OR KLOVE TO KD!?

 

[whitemamba27]

monday night can't come quick enough. need warrior tears shed or kd redemption arc

Umm ok

 

[ahat]

Man this was all a part of the plan man lol KD gonna play tmtw and drop 40

40 what?

Cuz it damn sure won't be points

 

[SneakerProSr.]

Wrong.

Just as wrong as the Warriors wouldn't need KD to beat the Raps

 

[3god]

Did I say that?

You’re biased so of course you don’t want that to happen.

 

[ahat]

I'm also keeping it a buck. He's not coming back after a month off, from a calf or Achilles or whatever injury, and dropping 40pts.

Wouldn’t put it passed the best player on the planet.

I’m the captain of the “**** KD” brigade but I can’t lie, the way the narrative has transformed into the Mighty Warriors needing KD is poetic justice for him. If he comes on the court and they win it, he lowkey becomes teflon for the simple fact that he singlehandedly made a hopeless situation hopeful for a team that’s even said they don’t need him. He would have so much leverage in free agency it would be hilarious. Make Draymond the little homie forever.
