**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[shotsrangout]

Paul Pierce wylin maan

Cmon Truth

That’s his gimmick now

 

[lawdog1]

Disagree. Matchups mean everything. Horford's ability to play from the perimeter as well defend and score inside the paint heavily affects Milwaukee's effectiveness. Compare Drummond and his ineffectiveness last series.

Plus Hayward and Brown neutralizes Middleton. Bledsoe? He has to worry about Kyrie, thus cancelling him out.

The C's are built for the playoffs be cause they matchup with anyone.

Think there may have been a bit is sarcasm to that post from @JD617 ...

 

[second2nonee]

Pierce bout to jinx the C's talking like that

 

[air jsarg]

LMAO, Pierce keeps being an absolute lame on TV

"Bucks can win the championship".......... *directly after Game 1*.........."Bucks aren't winning this series"

If this is going to be his "thing" as an analyst, then he's just trying to be a knock off version of Barkley, except alot less funny.

Let's Go!

Olay warmin up, lookin wet

 

[VARNELL HILL]

NT never fails to get fooled by big leads early in the game

Get fooled by blowouts in game 1s too

 

[bronconation24]

Paul Pierce is an idiot

They just started calling it a lot a few seasons back and i do not understand how it's a travel. The player goes from a triple threat stance, dribbles then moves. It's crazy considering all of the blatant travels that aren't called.

technically if you lift your pivot before putting the ball on the floor its a travel. most do it so fast you don't even notice it but yeah I agree they miss a lot of blatant ones this game was no exception

Prime Shaq needs to be held to higher standards. Losing to a 4 seed at home? By 24? Unacceptable.

Who called him prime Shaq?

They miss blatant ones in the league period.
It's just very fishy when they choose to call the pivot travel. If anyone is able to post it, it happened in the first minute if the 4th.

KD going to hit for another 40 piece today.

 

[bballkid11]

Rockets should win this game

 

[second2nonee]

yuck. all the espn people picked us to win

 

[Tony $now]

W’s in Fo’

Oh yea, Giannas got next, the league is in trouble if the best player in the league can’t shoot

 

[buc em]

Brett better make this switch tomorrow night.

Watching this game break makes you realize how much better Inside The NBA is .

Rockets are pretty much the only hope to stop the Warriors from 3-peating.

A Laker fan rooting for the Celtics?

Learn how to read pal. Look at what I was responding to.

 

[air jsarg]

THE FINALS ARE ABOUT TO START!

 

[DLF]

Rockets by 8

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Was being sarcastic my friend, someone was saying matchups are irrelevant a few days ago.

Ahh that's what I figured, after seeing your avi that you're most likely a C's fan.

Why the hell would someone think matchups are irrelevant?!

 

[DLF]

Only way Rockets win this series is if they can steal at least one victory on the road

It was so obvious when a few days ago they tried a new segment about flopping, it was the worst rip-off of Shaqtin' a Fool I think i've ever seen in my life.
