There's levels to the disdain for Lakers fans if Tatum truly becomes the second coming of Kobe...Lakers fans have to live with the internalized radioactive ether of knowing they passed him up for Lonzo Ball only to have their all time rival scoop him up insteadat laker fans rooting for the warriors because they know if this Celtic team win this year they’ll more than likely be back to win more finals extending their championship hardware hahaha

No nothing about momentum bruhs.Game was 85-81 when Klay left in the 3rd quarter with 3 mins left....but yes lets just assume they win games 6 and 7 when they were pretty much outplayed most of the series
We’ll only live with a piece of that, we’ll pass the majority of those honors onto flabgic…..There's levels to the disdain for Lakers fans if Tatum truly becomes the second coming of Kobe...Lakers fans have to live with the internalized radioactive ether of knowing they passed him up for Lonzo Ball only to have their all time rival scoop him up instead
its a 4 point lead with 16 mins to go in a game so were just giving it to the team that was inferior in most of the series
GTFO
Then were just gonna assume they win game 7 on the road......
Klay was on his way to having the best playoff game of his career, even better than his OKC game. It’s not crazy to assume the warriors would have rode him to a W at all. Game 7 in the finals historically are close games. There was a path for them to take it had klay stayed healthyits a 4 point lead with 16 mins to go in a game so were just giving it to the team that was inferior in most of the series

To give them BOTH games is a huge leap and beyond common sense based on how the 6 games went....so lets just throw out the data that says the home team wins 80 % of game 7s because theres a path is always the indisputable evidence i need...you nikkas are TRASH !
Truth is Warriors were just beaten, Draymond is wrong and wont admit it but Klay,Curry,Dray were beaten in 2019 by a better team....

Raptors took it to the Warriors.. specifically Siakam and Van Vleet. But I do think the Warriors win game 6 if Klay doesn't get hurt. Who knows about game 7. Bottom line was KD was out, and that team lacked depth because KD was on the roster. But I do give credit to the Raptors, they took tough shots and made them consistently.
If Porter and GPII are good to go, and looks like they will be, that's three players off the bench along with Moody who can defend and hit open threes. Don't need them to create, just hit open shots. Kuminga too, not as consistent with the shot but still hit 33% from 3 this year, can finish at the rim and defend 1-5 with Celtics personnel
Big difference compared to the 2019 team that had no competent 3 and D wings off the bench once KD went down (not to mention Wiggins starting at 3 instead of Igoudala on one leg).
Compare that to Boston's bench. They were down to a 7 man rotation the last 3 games against Miami. Payton Prichard borderline unplayable the way he was getting cooked on defense and he'll be food for Curry and Poole anytime he's out there
Boston got anyone off the bench that's consistently playable this series outside Williams and White? Tight rotation is one thing against the stone age iso ball offense Miami was running. Defending GS offense the way they make you work gonna be tough with a 7 man rotation

Lakers didn’t pass on Tatum.
