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

[Auger]

Dude hasn't played for an entire month

It'd be like hoping OG gonna make a difference even though he's been cleared to play.

Putting him in tomorrow would be eye opening

That has nothing to do with the position they in now. It doesnt translate. Its over dawg. Raptors is just the better team this year.

You making zero sense... a 3-1 deficit is a 3-1 deficit.. They have been in that position before.. you can’t shyt here rewrite history and say it don’t have anything to do with now..

It dont. Different circumstance. Different opponent. It does not translate. You delusional at this point.

 

[Strapped]

How fitting of him to return

 

[Chrishaune]

Klay had 28pts

How much did they lose by?

 

[Hey_zeus]

Interesting. I wouldn't even sweat this if I'm Tor. Dude hasn't played in 2.5 series. The likelihood of him coming back and doing heavy lifting would be miraculous.

GS bench game em nothing that was the difference

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

This is a half-assed psych out attempt by GSW. The desperation.

Kerr's been Trumpin it up with the IR lies all playoffs lol

Who knows

 

[MikelArteta]

They overcame a 3-1 deficit before..

Your hot takes are beyond trash

Was kawhi Leonard on that squad

No you just sound dumb as fukk...

Yeah, you had folks saying Klay was going to make a big difference though. That didn't happen.

Now they only have KD to add to the lineup. Do we really think that's good enough to win 3 in a row?

Raps figured them out. Specifically the off ball action with Steph. You can tell that was the biggest thing Toronto worked on and they are largely shutting down the action where Steph gives it up, runs around and relocates and gets an open 3. They took that away for the most part so those huge runs arent easy to come by. Plus Toronto is much better defensively, they are long and disruptive. They are pushing the pace after made GS baskets and getting it back. And they aren't scared of the Warriors at all. They've looked confident that they are the better team since game 1, and they are proving it. They've all adopted the quiet determination of KL.

Talented as they are, Warriors been prone to sloppy basketball and lapses in the playoffs since their first run in '15. Look at the roster makeup of the 73-9 team that went down 1-3 vs OKC

2016 Warriors (vs OKC): 106ppg, 43 rebounds a game

2019 Warriors (vs Raps): 104ppg, 40 rebounds a game

I think this Raps team would be a major problem for any iteration of the Warriors w/o KD. And with KD, it'd be a competitive ass series like what we saw in last years WCFs

That team was totally different and going up a team they were better than. Plus 2/3 games were home games for them

They are not better than the Raptors

i told yall mayne

no matter how this goes

i told yall

we dont fear the warriors at all without KD

I had, and continue to have, every expectation we will beat the Warriors without KD

One of the benefits I guess to being such a slept on, discredited and disrespected team like the Raps have been

when we strap up, no one saw it coming
