**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[703 hwy]

Ben Simmons is an avg guard man. Nothing special

 

[jjs07]

Jimmy Butler gonna have to treat this game like his rogue IDGAF last practice w/ the T-Wolves. He's gonna have to put the entire team on his back.

Did not recognize Ben without the arm sleeve

His clothes look smaller too

[Peep Game]

Peep Game so if the problem wasn't scoring but defense and rebounding then how many rebounds did harden get last nite? Who was supposed to be boxing out Looney when he grabbed that key rebound in the 4th that made it an 8 point game? Who was supposed to be guarding Klay when he slipped free and got that layup to seal the game? Where are the excuses for that?

This was you typing all of that, but Harden most def gave up that bucket to Klay. But, that would’ve been avoided had they secured the rebound on Steph’s shot (when PJ and EG forced a miss, and Steph got the ball back and Paul fouled him, I’m sure you should probably remember that, right?). Also, don’t go down by 14 and 20 out the gate

all that other stuff could’ve been avoided. I got time today for you daycare kids.

Everybody getting some early, good sign

It must be really hard to defend harden's failures every year. I admire the effort

More Excuses everytime Harden gets back to his ghost act. Congrats his teammates actually made some baskets in the crucial part of the game, how does that excuse him from completely taking himself out of the offense... after being hot most of the night. CP3 was 3/14 Eric Gordon finished 5/14, Capella was 3/10... needless to say regardless of it they made the shots towards the end of the game or not Harden straight up took himself out the game. Nobody says he has to take reckless contested shots (although his entire game & the teams whole system is predicated off that in every non pressure situation), but not taking contested shots doesn't mean not being aggressive. Entire 4th Quarter with the series on the line... the guy that ya'll claim has defenses scared, that can't be stopped... took one shot attempt & had one assist... And ONE FREE THROW THAT CAME OFF A TECHNICAL.

So the most dangerous scorer in the league... decided the 4th quarter of game 5 was the perfect time to let two undersized guards who were struggling the entire night make all the plays.... despite this not being the way Hou has played all season??

But Okay Houston didn't lose because of scoring... cool. Considering James completely dis attached from the offense, you would think he played some defense & rebounded the ball since that's what the team needs

Checks stats from the game.... How many rebounds did he have while he conserved all this energy on the offensive end? Four........

Okay well maybe rebounding isn't his thing surely he impacted the defense... He had the most shots attempted on him out of anyone on the team at 18 FGA... Offensive players scored 9/18 Attempts.

So He didn't rebound all game, When the game got tight (W/o KD & With Draymond in foul trouble) he took one shot & had one assist. And the offense got whatever they wanted against him all night..........

Ya'll could spin this how ya'll want we Got over 5 years of proof, WE KNOW WHO HE IS, when it matters most

Like this is an elimination game. Joel gonna have to give me a lot more minutes than 5 in a row

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Serge out here playing with frontal lobe brain damage... but he ain’t blaming it on poor health like Embiid.

Shout out Serge
