Raptors take game 2 also

Skip gets free ammo when Siakam wins finals mvp

Not about the points, it’s about the efficiency

All the vids I posted he had 70% or more fg%

Look at his game log and see how many games he’s had over 50%

Only have to go back to the Orlando series to see him put that up consistently. It’s even more impressive considering that was a matchup he absolutely struggled with during the regular season. Warriors don’t have the long athletic defenders that give him problems.

Raptors take game 2 also

I don't think it's as close as Game 1 either.

 

[kilroythedon]

We DOnT nEed Kd or CoUsIns.

Lol y’all got cousins back though.

 

[shotsrangout]

kinda strange how the warriors seem to be WORSE with cousins.. dude is honestly terrible now

 

[dacomeup]

I just don’t really get what these big adjustments are going to be. Curry and Klay both shot well, but Toronto was running them off the 3pt line. You probably aren’t going to get THAT much more production out of them scoring-wise.

Defensively, they can choose to not blitz Kawhi and give up easy looks to Siakam and Gasol, but if you do that, Kawhi is going to have his way with whoever is defending him more often than not. Pick your poison.

Agree mostly, but I thought Klay stunk. He hit a few open 3s but otherwise he didn't do much. Toronto just isn't giving up much with those open 3s. They're disciplined and are going to make the other 3 beat them as long as KD isn't out there.

Man Bron gets out the finals and suddenly the narrative with GS goes from unstoppable force nobody can beat, to the Raptors figured it out in one game & GS will have no answers

The best player in the NBA being hurt might have something to do with that.. No one claimed the Warriors were unbeatable pre-KD.
Disingenuous as hell.

Maybe the inaccurate of the 2 was the"unstoppable force" narrative?

This post sucks.

GSW is missing their best player.

LBJ already beat GSW w/o KD in a 7 game series.

I would roll with that if these same people didn't try and slight KD by saying the warriors offense is much harder to stop because KD "doesn't play in the system".. The same Raptors that a lot of people didn't even see having a chance against the Bucks are now being picked to beat the Warriors... but we've had to hear about the past three four years, how Lebron couldn't beat "Goliath"

Both sides made good points.
Ive been in the camp, that warriors over achieved and there wasn't really many good teams in the league.
They were never unbeatable other then the first year they Got kd..
Cp3 and harden had them on the ropes last year.

Warriors are cooked. Anyone want to put some money on it, that has a good rep.
I put down 150 on the raptors, if they win I get more then double my money. The bucks would beat the warriors too.
The league has caught up with them.
NO shame in that tho. They had a great run. This has been the warriors Era. Not the Lebron Era as many people like to put it.

All i ask for is consistency in here damnit

One day the Raptors stand no chance against Giannis & the Bucks... Kawhi has to carry everything
KD is actually slowing down the Warriors Offense with all that Iso ball, there not really that much better with him.

Raptors win game one, now suddenly GS isn't really that good and don't have any answers for the Raptors. So Kawhi and the same supporting cast ya'll didn't think could get past the Bucks just two weeks ago is now suddenly good enough to beat the Warriors. But ya'll "GOAT" stood no chance against em. HOW SWAY!!

Ya'll were just swearing up & down that the Warriors weren't really THAT much better with KD...
