**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[goldmember]

Who really thought Denver would make some noise tho? Lets be real.. Jokic and Murray are 2nd option type players maybe even third.

DJ Augustine is the player you use as an example to show how good NBA players are.

This the DJ that led the bulls to the playoffs when rose got hurt. I love dj's game. Always have. Loved him on the pistons. Was heated when he got moved for nothing. Dude is a real one. Wants all the smoke.

Marcus Thornton and Thomas Robinson couldn't be on anybody's roster today? Dudes are 31 and 28. Crazy

It is. MT is a walking bucket. He had that solid season in NOLA and then became a journeyman.

put some respeck on Nate Robinsons name

Playoffs are great without lebron

What team is he on these days?

Why is Beverly assigned to Durant
That Steph hesi

I haven't seen that EMOTICON in about 15 years

 

[DCAllAfrican]

After getting knocked down a few times that basket starts to look smaller

Come on man, you are talking as if Steph is some type of sucka.

Folks have been trying to punk him since he was a child, hasn't worked. Damn sure not working now

Is it just me but ever since the nba stop putting the nba playoff logo on the court, these games look like regular season nba games. I never understood why they went away from nba playoff and finals graphics on the court. They need to bring this logo back on the court during the finals!

Only a few of us older dudes will remember this but I remember having this conversation on here some years ago.

I also get frustrated with the NCAA for making the MCAA Tournament courts the same uniform color and not different colors like they used to be in the 90s

I think they said that the logos were a hazard. Because they were placed on top 9f the court and not actually a part of the court, so they were fully flush with the wood and under the gloss .guys slipped on them. That was silver's reasoning iirc

 

[krazy88s]

My Nets played very well yesterday. Couldn’t be prouder. Let’s go Nets!!

 

[ill steelo]

Lowry was a +11, though

 

[kingfoamnyc]

We should start a petition to get playoff decals back in the hardwood. The excuse was lame as hell considering certain teams have tons of **** all over the court when they do retro night (hornets, bucks, etc). Just doesn't make any logical sense why we can't get a NBA playoffs, conference finals, and NBA finals patch like back in the day.

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

Raptors should've traded Lowry when he still had value.

 

[keko jones]

You can tell Kyle was mad AF. I mean how can you even show your face after that.

Highly doubt Toronto will have a 1st rd exit but they're having people in TDot suffering from PTSD FRFR.

It's funny when the playoffs come around and you pay more attention to teams. Jokic has this weird vibe about him. It's like he doesn't really care and he has bad body language at times. With that and all the techs he's been getting lately he low key reminded me of a young boogie. I been said he can't be your best player and it's more obvious now.

Also Mike Malone has less than zero charisma. They had the camera in one of his huddles and he was talking about there's plenty of time left..we're gonna win this game. Right then I knew without a doubt they'd lose. It was the most unconvincing thing I've ever heard. Then in the post game he says we're going into game 3 tied 1-1 and I'm like man..these fools finna get swept. He does not inspire confidence. Guys like him need to be assistant coaches

Isn’t T-Rob trying to make a comeback? And if bumass Anthony Morrow can stay in the league for as long as he has how come Marcus Thornton can’t?

Morrow's career was weird. He shot like 50% from 3 one year then for like the next 8 years teams kept picking him up just to let him rot on the bench

Raptors should've traded Lowry when he still had value.

They tried. Mike Conley would've made at least one shot

He is a sucka. Lebron flexed on him in the finals in 2016 and it was curtains

Jazz would’ve been an interesting fit

 

[wavycrocket]

Nuggets in 6.

F y’all!

 

[vidiviciun]

DUBS aint losing a game this whole playoff run...

 

[pmpdaddyrobford]

 

[trynafeelmink]

Oracle sounds like a mad house, injuries aside the Warriors aren't losing a game there

Also shout out to my guy iggy out there disrupting everything & Kawhi hittig clutch basket after clutch basket all for the Raps to piss it away

 

[nikekid6]

Caron Butler wtf!!!
