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

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

@G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman how many games you have for the finals

I voted Warriors in 7 and I stand by it. I'll never let my homerism cloud what I see and what I see is without KD Toronto has the better overall roster.

I never said Toronto would be light work like other dudes are saying. I've always called it how I saw it, Toronto fans and weirdo fake ass Warrior fans that joined the bandwagon after we won won't convince me to think otherwise.

on the real though @G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman why are you so unhappy

yall won 3 out of the last 4 championships and 5 straight finals

take a deep breath

What makes you think I'm unhappy? I've been saying life is great for over a week now champ. I highly doubt anyone on this board is happier in life than I am. You've never seen me start anything with anyone on this board...I play defense

At a minimum I have it going to 6 but I hope the dubs take it home .

That's a deceptive 33. He went to the line for 16pts i believe. He was getting locked up on double teams after the 1st quarter.

He got to the line because he was dribbling through the double team. He's the reason Gasol fouled out, and was getting And-1s. Curry was dominant, these weren't Harden fouls that weren't even remotely basketball moves.

 

[NormanConnors]

Yes FVV can cause he did last night. I’m not saying the free throws don’t count, but some of those fouls were forced James harden looking shyt. FVV did a good job staying in front of curry, chasing him around picks and forcing him the direction of gasol. He had his most inefficient game since that rockets series. All of it wasn’t because of FVV but he played extended minutes guarding curry and did good. Don’t matter if Curry has 33 or 35 if he’s shooting 42% from the field to get to it.

You see it, these Curry stans have preferred blindness

Dudes are constantly at his neck and hes starting to lose it

If someone walks up to you and slaps you for no reason and you react by punching them would you say you lost it or met aggression with aggression?

There was one that was questionable, where Curry created contact on Gasol, but Gasol did get his body into him a bit before Curry kicked the legs. I don't know how any other fouls could be compared to what Harden does.

its not like Kawhi didn't get foul calls because he missed the shot, or Siakam , because he missed a dunk.

 

[MostReal]

Curry had his way with the Raps, VanFleet did a good job denying him of the ball that's about it.

The rest of it was the Raps just fouling him to keep him out the paint.

I think Curry saw a weakness in their D late and he will exploit it the rest of the series.

It's just game one, more will come, he's been doing it all playoffs

you can tell nikkas know theyre losing money this series looking at all the reactions

 

[Big Boss]

Cant wait for the hot takes after game 2

 

[NoMorePie]

The Raptors might win their first title in franchise history and the only news to come out of it is the warriors losing because of kd being out


Media about to asterisk the holy hell out of this potential win

Yall just say shyt just to say it




The only questionable call is the gasol 3pt. Everything else were legit fouls

First foul called Curry was on some bullshyt, breh flinging in the air like Ninja Gaiden

If somehow the raptors win, this would be similar to 2011. Dirk won after all those years of being called soft and Dallas got their revenge aganist miami, but the only storyline was Lebron choked and Miami would of won if Lebron had showed up.

If, and I mean if, the raptors win this series, I can see hot takes and narratives being thrown all over the damn place that has less to do with the raptors and more to do with GSW

I want the Warriors to win but I didn't put aserisks on their wins with KD and I won't put any on a loss without him...gotta keep the same energy
