Pelicans gotta change up their defensive coverages.

 

[ThePeoplesChamp_]

The Warriors should give Ray Allen courtside seats to the next home game.

Why would they give him tickets for game 3 of the WCF?

I’d be surprised if Pelicans won a game in this series.

To fight pettiness with more pettiness. Edit: I see what you did there

Hate the raptors man. Every damn yr. They even had my mom fooled into picking them this yr.

Steph's the greatest player to ever come out of Akron.

So delusional

Is this not silly to anyone? I didn't even watch the game and I know that both of them got fouled countless time tonight

Draymond yelled in 4 different dude's faces in consecutive possessions and didn't even get a warning

Officiating has been especially garbage this postseason.

And yet the refs are giving techs for this

Well I think I can safely say Toronto is done. No way do they beat Cleveland 4 times out of 6

You didn’t watch the game but are making a comment that can only be made by watching the game.

Blog Boyz mentality at its finest.

Good game 1

Wish we can fast forward to the ECF

Raptors are fraud status. They're never making the finals much less getting a ring.

I don't know what you do with that team because "blowing up" a 1 seed sounds absurd. But it's clear they have no future. Maybe they need a 3rd "star" but who and who could you even give up? I don't think anybody is banging on the door for anybody else on their roster nor are any free agents pressed to go to Toronto.

lol pelicans gonna get swept I feel bad for that team the nba should have started the series off with the pelicans up 1-0 by default just to be fair

 

[bostoiah]

Raptors not built for this

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

Cavs should have ran that tyson Chandler play at the end of the 4th.

 

[bballkid11]

Derozan should have elevated on that last shot and pulled up with the fadeaway. No reason to pump fake when you can elevate and get your shot.

I would not say it was a bad pass, but id rather he go to that shot. Jeff Green was running at Fred and contested it perfect.

I've always said that Draymond gets a tonne of rope with referee's and I'm really not sure why. He constantly barks at referee's and they allow it, but let another player do it and its almost always a technical. I'm all for letting guys be emotional but theres certainly a lack of consistency with every other player not named Draymond Green.

Pro sports man. No space for feeling sorry for folks, they are grown men. I guess I get what you are trying to say but nah.

In general though, are people still trying to convince themselves HOU will still beat GSW? Haven't been in here in a few days

 

[DCAllAfrican]

That is kinda dumb. The ball is leather, putting sweat on it will only make it more grippy and easier to shoot. Maybe if the league used an Evo this might work.

Put then again, Rondo an a-hole so he was probably going for the disrespect factor

The "ugh" factor plays into the Sweat Move by Rondo. Nobody is trying to blatantly and knowingly touch someone else's sweats, so it was more so to make him uncomfortable and to be annoying

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

F the league

 

[ill steelo]

Everyone: you cant beat the warriors by trying to outscore them.

Pelicans: hold this beer

it’s the only style of play that the roster is optimally suited for unfortunately for them.

They actually crushed GSW whenever Steph was on the bench gameplan wasn’t bad.
