**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[lightweight champion]

nurkic's injury robbed us of what couldve been a great series. kanter is playing way above expectations and probably the best basketball of his life but portland just doesnt have enough post defense

To counter this they need to run those high screens with Dame and Kanter or whoever Millsap is assigned to. When Dame split the defense he was doing damage and drawing fouls. They might be able to get Denver’s bigs in foul trouble.

I saw Denver play in Portland when Denver was tanking. Let's just say we got a lot more IT than we aniticipated. Dude was ballin' though (by the current definition of ballin' as it pertains to IT).

Tanking. When was this?

 

[nomadicsole21]

Harkless, Aminu, and Evan Turner combined for 4 points in 60+ minutes of floor time

We got 3 PJ Tuckers.

Couldn't play any worse.

I'd literally cut ET. Pay him and cut him just to embarrass him.

 

[lightweight champion]

Cut down on TOs. Despite being undersized the blazers outrebounded Denver. 6 more turnovers, 1 less 3pt, and 7 missed free throws. Clean it up and they’ll be fine.

 

[ripcitythree]

ET has no heart.
The dude would rather be in Cancun so cut him and let his rich *** fake heart *** go be in Cancun.
He doesn't wanna be here right now, dudes playing as if he's mad he's still having to play games for a "living", like as if he's upset he's working overtime for free or some ****. Dude doesn't give 1 flying F about winning period.

Nah the Yoker is gonna Yweep us.
Period.

This is Portland we're talking about here man.
Don't know if your aware or not but we're known for choking also cursed.

[ripcitythree]

Typical Blazers. Get everybody's hopes up only to have a big let down and choke. Been used to it for years, for decades rather. Everyone else who doesn't follow Portland welcome to what Portland always does.

His ego is bigger than his overall career production on the court. Funny dude though.

my G, chill man. portland aint gonna get swept. lots of things could be different for portland next game. outside of hood, your guys' bench played like utter trash, harkless and aminu gave yall close to nothing on offense and CJ played less than he's capable of. could still see this series going 6.

like L lightweight champion pointed out, Dame needs to continue eating off those screens and attacking the basket. same with CJ. at the very least get either millsap or jokic into foul trouble. also, aminu's gotta be willing to take those open 3s. the **** is he doing passing up on them?? denver's gonna keep cheating and collapsing on dame if they know aminu's not going to shoot on a kick out. like blud you got one job to do on offense, at least attempt to do it.

 

[ripcitythree]

Correct only 4-0
