**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[mikedalton]

Good half boys

Brad Stevens got them coached up well for this one. And they getting good shots too

Giannis 2/7?

The Meek Greek

 

[air jsarg]

Can’t someone dig up some old racist comments or find some women that Hubie harassed in the past to get him off my goddamn TV

Still better than Chris Webber

 

[bostoiah]

Milwaukee lucky they made 3 contested 3 pointers....should be up 11 right now

Unsustainable

 

[second2nonee]

Jaylen been playing better these past 3 games

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Ok I found it. Knew I wasn't tripping

The Raptors traded this dude in his prime for washed Gasol averaging 13 and 8 making $25 mill per year this year and next year

Gasol has scored 2 points in three out of his last five games and is averaging only 5 rebounds in those games as well.

And the funny thing is that I feel like they did the trade to match up Gasol with Embiid...when historically Embiid has always killed Gasol and kinda struggled with Jonas.

 

[clyde the glide]

yeah Tatums minutes may be reduced if brown and Hayward are playing well. plus they need the big bodies for Giannis

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Probably should be arrested for that flat top

Ainge making a Jaylen Brown mixtape as we speak. He’s DMing anno domini for beats as well.

Brown + 2nd rounder for AD this off season. Who says no??

I mean what was he doing at the time? Maybe he was headed down that path and changed. Not saying it’s ok to say that to people but need more context. I know it’s more likely the teacher was just an idiot, but the new age of using one quote to judge people is also just as unfair as those making these comments

Nah idc what context it is you don’t say that to a HS student, especially if you’re a teacher and especially to a black student (esp if you a white teacher)

He wasn’t heading down that path though, from what I remember, he is quite the nerd.

Sounding a little #BlueLivesMatter-ish over here

He was studying to be a prison guard. Shows a lot of belief in his teacher that she would think he’d have his dream job in 5 years. I think he was surprised by the support, hence the “wow”

Your first mistake was trusting anything Buc Em said.

 

[papichino]

Horford the Giannis stopper man is playing Giannis perfect

I definitely agree that folks are constantly taking partial quotes out of context and slapping it on a headline to sensationalize a story. Nonetheless, as a public school educator, that’s some **** I’d never insinuate to a young person of color

Nonetheless, jaylen went to my alma mater..glad to see that man cook

I agree that that was most like the case (90 percent sure). Just playing devils advocate as we head into the age of fake news and people reacting to topics rather then the story

Greek was trying to drive and dunk with his team mate on the ground in the paint

 

[JD617]

That Gasol/Embiid thing has been the other way around. Gasol has given him problems.

Horford SHEESH

Horford is punking Giannis out there
