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

[murksiderock]

The Raptors should get another scorer if they want to resign him. Siakam is not ready yet. If leaves the Lakers or Clippers better have passing 1's ready because fam is no playmaker.

I think Siakam will be better next year. I'm not sure he'll ever carry a team but I do think he'll string together some All-Star berths and can be a 20/10 guy. But he may not be ready this series---->he needs to be a 20/10 guy this series and he just may not be there yet like you said!

Agree wherever Kawhi goes, you need another scorer!

We are now at the point where if your star player isnt averaging 45 ppg in the finals they not living up to expectations.

Its folks in here saying Kawhi was "terrible" this game.

Lmao did you even watch the game?

He wasn't terrible but this absolutely wasn't a "great" performance. He was good. He needs to be better than "good" to give his team a shot, or do you disagree with that?

We expected Westbrook and Harden to step up every postseason. We expected LeBron to win every Finals even though almost every year a superior team is on the other side. Is Kawhi's expectations supposed to be lower than every other superstar? How does that work?

He scored three points in the 4thQ. All three were free throws, and none came until the 1:08 mark left in the 4th. The Raptors needed him to stop the bleeding in the 3rd, for half the quarter, he didn't. They needed a basket late in the 4tb when they were getting stops, he didn't get it. 16 of his points were at the line, 5 turnovers to 3 assists and most of those turnovers came when they had The Dubs on the ropes defensively or when they needed a score in the 3rd...

Dont try to dress this up like Kawhi was just on fire tonight...

We could have easily won this game. Series ain't over.

Stop it we put the clamps on y’all.. :Holderbreh:

 

[CSquare43]

Well that was interesting. We have a series folks....

 

[Osmosis]

Kawhi double team is an auto turnover or late pass. Dude never wants to get rid of the ball shyt is beyond frustrating to watch.

So agree. Now the secrets out, dray will hound him the entire series. Durant is back game 4, siakam ain't ready for all that. Number 2 does the same flopping harden and curry did in game 1.I too can score 30 if I play for could and get to the free throw line. Oh and in Oakland his push offs will become offensive fouls imo.

 

[kingdarius]

He still left

who the fukk wouldnt ...the fact he stayed THAT long is beyond me. Went back too

 

[CSquare43]

End of era @BigMoneyGrip @G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman @CSquare43

Rumors of our demise were greatly exaggerated....

 

[Tom Foolery]

Stop it we put the clamps on y’all.. :Holderbreh:

Y'all had 1 quarter of winning basketball.

If putting the clamps on means win by 5, get ya refund on them clamps.

 

[Guess Who]

GSW fans don’t get too excited. This Raptors team is resilient and not scared. We also get better as the series goes forward. We missed a lot of wide open looks, didn’t account for Boogie’s passing and of course the refs kept GSW in it early. But a win is a win. See you on Wednesday.

 

[MostReal]

All this starts with the attention on curry

Everyone knows this except ESPN and FMVP voters

 

[Knicksgarbageforever]

Refs kept the warriors in this game and the raptors fell apart in the 2nd half. What’s funny though is Steph shot 2 of 7 and had only 7 points in the whole 2nd half but nikkas talking about Finals mvp

 

[Auger]

Draymond was pivotal in the 3rd, all those buckets came from ball movement and reacting off the help.

They needed to play smarter defense that quarter instead of just intense defense.

They punished the Raps everytime they helped.
