Ghostriding Through The 6 For The Chip - Raps v Warriors Finals Thread

[MostReal]

already in this playoffs
we lost game 1 at home to the magic
lost game 1 to the bucks

its just the experience and defense, when golden state got it to within four, old raptors would be down 7, kawhi and gasol were like nah and got it back up to 10

Nurse outcoached kerr today, after the firs time out in the game he literally took the 3 away from klay and curry for the rest of the game

gasol went from jacking 3s to taking advantage of mismatches inside. Curry on gasol?

game would have been a blowout if it wasnt for all those ticky tacky fouls curry was getting

Nick Nurse been coaching his butt off all playoffs. For your team to be down in every series and then come back and win them, serious adjustments are being made. Which is why I'm so upset about losing game 1 to them. Raps haven't even made their typical adjustment and looked pretty impressive tonight. Pascal and Gasol took over the game.

 

[Reece]

Why was Pascal able to go off tonight and not against Philly and Milwaukee?

Size? Or were they just over-helping on Kawhi?

Embiid and Giannis

I would start boogie. Keeps gasol away from trapping curry on picks since he has to stay down low.

I dont think boogie will play over 20 minutes in any of these games because kerr kept overreacting to his defensive play. He played good defense in the PnR on like 3 straight possessions and then ibaka finally got open on a PnR because he trapped the ballhandler and Kerr immediately pulled him from the game.

Ive seen that if a player has a bad reputation for their defense even if they are playing well on that end they dont get burn. We saw this with kanter a lot.

Eat my ass

Go to bed

You're not even good at trolling. Do you know how sad that is to be shyt at trolling

Team had 5 days to scout every nook and cranny

breh dont waste your time with these americans. They hate the raptors, magic down 1-0 oh its over for toronto same ol raptors. Raptors down 2-1 to philly its done its over, raptors are trash and soft. Rpas down 2-0 to bucks, same old raptors garbage.

Start of series golden state in 4, warriors 31-1 in their last 32 without durant, warriors score at ease, ball movement this and that

raps had warriors in a vice grip, beat them for the third time this year but all you hear is excuses.

No one gives the raptors defense credit, marc gasol was old and a f ossil and washed up he could barely play this series they said. Gasol scores 20 points, is on the perimeter guarding steph curry looking like kevin love on curry out there.

They just cant take it

Raps got the best fans in the nba, even the halftime ish with former players, many of those guys SPURNED the raptors, stoudamire, mcgrady, bosh, but once a raptor always a raptor. Jerome williams played 2 damn years in a raptor uniform and dude is revered in this city. These haters cant take it

Never forget the legends who came before.

They need to bring Vince and Demar

 

[Guess Who]

Against Philly they said that Embiid and dem just played bad and couldn’t get it going.

Against the Bucks they said that the role players didn’t show up and Giannis was undisciplined.

Game One here and now folks are saying the Warriors offence was sloppy and disjointed.

Maybe just maybe the Raptors are really fukking good. Yes, we got a lot of series left and it can still go either way but a lot of y’all nikkas need to wake up to the fact the this Raptors team is really fukking good.

 

[Reece]

That last shot Siakam wasn’t even looking at the basket. That was pure muscle memory and timing

 

[the next guy]

Game 2 is a must win for GS. I expect them to get the split and Durant will be back in the bay. This will be tough though.

 

[MostReal]

We in the finals Breh. This was the best game of his life

the man made 11 straight FGS, 11!!! in the 3rd quarter on. In the Finals breh, not the franchise player

They need to bring Vince and Demar

Vince was telling yeams what plays they were running to sabotage becaude he wanted out. He wont be embraced there

the Raptors defense is really good.I've been saying the team that I didn't want to see play GS in the Finals was the Raptors. I'm just upset with Siakam balling like that.

I know but the fans have forgave him and give him standing ovations now

which is why nothing is going to change imo unless durant comes back.
The raps defense is just to damn good, their defense is so good that even if they get down like 10-15 points you know they will come back.

curry had year 30 something points, but after those 3 quick 3's he was 1/4 after adjustments, he had to work for every single basket, and he used the harden flop to get to the free throw line.
Danny green made klay work for everything the only open looks klay got were from offensive rebounds.
