Using Koreans eating tacos at a game as a sign of being the most diverse place :lol:
Using someone that was more than qualified to have a better job and selling used cars because of discrimination as the thesis :lol:

It's funny this drops and they boast of diversity coming up against a bay area team


Side note: Him calling the purple dinosaur throwbacks ugly was wicked
 
Lol LA ain't San Antonio. Kobe a fame type of dude. He wanted that. He didn't want to leave. He wanted the FO to get off their *** and make changes. Kawhi didn't want to bounce because of the roster. He wanted to bounce because all the guys he played with were disloyal lil bishes. They all question his health and his motives and Pop ain't have his back. There's no coming back to that

Ding, ding, ding!! Tony Parker was talking greasy, all kinds of innuendos and talking down, Pop talking down. RC Buford and them f***** up. This whole ordeal made me view Pop differently. Now you’re stuck with ALDRIDGE. Pop said Kawhi wasn’t a leader..... I guess Lamarcus is :lol: :rofl:
 
This is what being a bad basketball team feels like... Washed offSZN and washed future

Imagine if the Raptors win... Good lord.
 
Hopefully we see the other side of the story. I don't think uncle Dennis is sharing every detail. The spurs let kawhi seek his own medical advice in the fall and then he stopped communicating with the team. Hence the "idk if kawhi is playing you'll have to ask his camp". Remember when pop begged kawhi to let him declare kawhi out for the season

Pops wife just died and kawhi was hiding in New York in the same building. Just tell the dude your intentions. You did it anyways when pop went to California to find you in the summer.

I still believe they were hesitant to offer the supermax because kawhi was out and that started the disagreement. Everything went funky after kawhi went back from China. Uncle Dennis probably saw how real stars are treated and demanded the spurs bend over

Yeah. Spurs are are home, and Raptors are in the finals.
 
I can’t understand why the Fn NBA makes their game times like they do. This game is in Toronto and it starts at 9?? I get it that there’s no perfect start time. Either start too early and Pacific time zone misses the start of the game but can see the 2nd half or more. Or start too late like they do now and F over the east coast.

Why screw over the east coast , it makes no sense to me. Especially on an east coast home game. Start it at 7 eastern.
 
Kawhi in his current state isn't gonna be able to kill on offense as he has and run around the court chasing Steph and alternating between guarding Klay. Something's gonna give, dude is too broken at the moment.
If you’re depending on just one guy to defend Steph, you’ve already lost. He’s not an iso scorer
 
Toronto has the personnel and coaching to keep the game in the 90s, very low 100s. I don’t expect as many brain farts like we saw from Houston & Portland. Stotts dropping his bigs, Harden trying to rest while on the damn court, etc.

And obviously anything can happen when you’re playing in the 90s low 100s. Even still, you’d expect Steph/Klay to make more shots when truly needed than Kawhi & whoever their #2 option is that night
 
You gonna play it safe again?

My decision has taken longer than any other series.

Do I go for the big $$$$$$$$$$ or play it "safe", whatever safe is.

My gut is telling me Warriors in 5/6 at Oracle.
The $ is taking Raptors in 7.

Right now my bookie is offering PICKEM for game 1. I need to hop on that fast but I am unsure on Rust vs Rest.
 
Yeah no way I'm betting big on which game the series it ends on. I'm just going Steph for MVP and something little for GS in 5
 
raps are in a good spot tho. if they win its the feel good underdog story of the year. if they lose itll be a we'll be back next year, we're just happy to be here type of ordeal. and i hope kd doesnt come back. the excuse of the warriors cant win without him needs to go away. so give them that adversity. make this series entertaining.

Yea screw over half the country instead of just making east coast guys have to suck it up and stay up a little later a few nights... ..now your thinking

I'm on the east and wake up to do manual labor at 6 every day btw.

Raps will not be back next year lol. Kawahi will be gone.
THIS is the chance right here.

I think they are in a Bad spot. If GS had home court then raps could hope for a split and then take it back home. Now, GS has the back end 2 at home. Way different spot and IF they take game 1. Whew, pressure will be on Raps in a must-win type game 2.
