2019 NBA Playoffs Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
They have a good group to move forward with though. I could see him signing a 2+1 contract to give them a chance to roll this group back then see what they do when Gasol, Lowry, and Ibaka come off their books.
If LA is his priority, then this is time to leave and build something right away
 
Fuck those cunts I wish them all nothing but the worst except for Looney he a trooper. Go Raps Classy org.

Nope F Looney too. F anyone that wears that front running bitch team uniform.
 
This. Klay is a superstar. Curry is really good but he only reaches superstar status when he's a front runner. He can't do it on his own. Klay is there every night while guarding the best player on the other team.

Sorry. Klay is not a superstar. He is not there every night. He was very good for most of this series, but people are forgetting how inconsistent he is. He usually has 1 great game every 3 or 4 games. Plus, he's an overrated defender. Anyone remember Kyrie torching him in the finals?
 
I agree...Toronto is a very good team but c'mon it was handed to em on a silver platter

They got lucky. But part of getting a chip is staying healthy. GS got there three because of this.
 
interested to hear about klay. if that's an ACL, steph is going to be alone for much of next year

yeah that knee definitely looked like it buckled.

But Klay really showing his value this series...thinking Warriors win the series if he is fully healthy.
 
Kawhi is going to get ridiculously overrated now, and his finals wasn't all that impressive, but golden state lost so I don't care. Steph has 0 finals Mvps in 5 appearances. Cousins didn't get the free ring he signed up for. Durant shredded his Achilles. Only thing that would make it better if it was Cleveland instead of Toronto winning
 
I don't think this means the end of their dynasty. Steph, Klay, and Draymond can still hang with just about anyone. They shuffle out those weak ass role players and Demarcus, then they're right back at the top of the conference.
 
If LA is his priority, then this is time to leave and build something right away

Kawhi wants the star endorsements he deserves as a top 3 player. I'm not sure LA talk was anything more than attempt to make that happen.

He will see the star treatment when they have the parade in Toronto. Then the phone will ring off the hook for every Canadian company to endorse Kawhi if he comes back to the Raptors. He will get paid to be the face of basketball in Canada. I don't think any of his endorsements with international or US companies will take a hit if he is in Toronto vs LA. He will just have too much on the table from Canadian companies to say no.
 
I'm praying a team picks up Mark Jackson as an assistant coach in the off season so I don't have to hear him call games next year.I dislike him more than Joe Buck.
 
Couldn't have scripted a better ending. BRAYMOND with the Chris Webber timeout, the Warriors losing player after player, ending in 6. Perfect bookend to this horseshit dynasty team's run. Congrats to Comrade Kawhi, Van Vleet, Ibaka, Siakam, Gasol, and Kyle fuckin' Lowry (who fucking BALLED tonight) for taking this home. Golden State would just NOT DIE until they did. JEREMY LIN HAS A RING!!! LMAO!!! PATRICK MCCAW GOT A RING!!!

New team takes a title. Between this and the Blues win, I'm good. NO THREEPEAT!!!
 
I'm still hoping Klay comes to the conclusion that that he needs to be the featured player on his own team and leaves. Hopefully Durant will leave too.

If it's an ACL as rumored, I don't think he'll command nearly what he wants on the open market, unlike the way many teams will likely pay supermax for KD's coming medical redshirt year.

Although in this series he did look like a legit max when healthy.

Does he have a player option as KD does? Edit, looks like no, that changes things a lot.
