Discussing off court drama is clearly off limits, but what about in court drama? I don't think anyone has said anything about that
what happens underneath the parquet is none of our business
PP should just embrace it. I'd never stop bragging if I had a bank account that forced innocent bystanders to wheelchair me out of the crime scene every time I shit myself.
He gave up on the team.
Sources tell me KD is upset because Draymond said they didn't need him, and upset because people consider the Warriors "Curry's team".
No...but it's idiotic to brag about beating a team missing multiple all stars. Sports history is littered with champions that won not because they were the better team but because the other team was missing key players. It's okay to point that out...
I think it's a shame because the Raptors don't have a chance to win a championship under normal circumstances. If they win it will always be looked at skeptically.
That's because the Warriors were the favorites going in, and oh yeah they proved they were a dynastic team in the following years.
Respectfully, you are wrong. Let's say the Raptors end up winning. Maybe KD plays at some point, maybe he doesn't. For the rest of history anytime somebody brings up this years Finals it will be followed by "Raptors only won because half of the Warriors couldn't play." Beating a team missing multiple all stars means you haven't had the chance to prove you were the best team. Especially when the team you beat was heavy favorites and one of the best teams in NBA history.
Like, this isn't even a controversial statement I'm making. As the poster I've already quoted said this exact same thing happened to this
If your point is that the Raptors are better than the Blazers...well sure. I agree with that.
But the whole counting quarters thing is just really weird to me. We've all seen games where a team blows another team out by 20 in the first quarter and coasts to victory. The other team might win the other three quarters and still lost by 10. Not to mention this Warriors team is built on making runs - whether it's storming back from double digit deficits to going up double digit deficits in the blink of an eye.
You also have to take into account the first two games were in Toronto. And game three might as well not even count because the Warriors were missing KD, Klay and Looney. Just my opinion though.
It looked like he was bouncing around high fiving guys though ... I dunno if its an Achilles strain because that would very stupid to allow a player to do that.
My guess is it is basically what they say it is ... a bad calf strain. Those do take 4-6 weeks to heal, it's not even 4 weeks yet.
There is no real game plan for a player like KD other than "hope they miss" anyway.
Seriously, fuck Skip Bayless. He's sus as fuck.
Meanwhile he's "debating" whether or not the Warriors owner deserves a ban for shoving Lowry.

skip staying consistent, at least
how many times has he blasted lebron for putting the team on his back in an L?

This thread is hilarious. GSW tears and calls for asterisks before game 4 is even played. Funniest shit I've seen in a long time. I can't believe I put money (house money, parlayed a bet on the blues beating the sharks) on the Raptors winning this thing and I'm gonna win hahahahaha.
I'm not worth that much money.
People subconsciously want to be marks and keep shoving those bills in Skip's money vault. Skip is top tier at doing what he does.

They were the favorites going in
Lost the next year when KLove and Kyrie weren't injured
Then added KD, a top 3 player in the league, and won 2 more titles.
Klay will be back in game 4. Klay, Curry, Iggy, and Draymond will be playing. If they can't win this series I think all of their rings should have a asterisk tbh...
there's only 1 finals related incident that doesn't have an asterisk

Nothing huge, originally a $25 bet on the blues to beat the sharks will turn into $200 if the Raptors beat GSW. Good enough for me though :) The sweetest money though is the $5 straight up I made with a guy in my office who kept saying nobody had a chance to beat GSW except the Rockets - even after KD went down. It's not over though, GSW is insanely talented but this is looking good for me haha.
They're going to win with Klay. Without Klay the Raptors defense doesn't have to pull their defenders out as far and can mostly ignore an entire side of the court while putting more pressure on Curry. With Klay back Curry is going to see more open shots and make the paint a lot less crowded for Green/Boogie to rack up those assists.
I'm still picking the Dubs to win if Klay comes back completely healthy.
