Do you get that feeling? I don

[Andrei89]

Do you get that feeling? I don’t hear anyone talking about it. I just hear about the drafts and potential trades and the Lakers. It’s not the same thing as taking down the full Warriors. I mean the Raptors had a parade and I didn’t even know. I only heard about it because my boy was talking about Jeremy Lin.

When people think of this year, they seem to remember the injuries. Let’s be honest. Isn’t the excitement kinda meh? Every Raptor fan knows what woulda happened if both teams were at full strength. There’s no doubt and no denial. But sometimes it’s better to be healthy than good.

TL/DR except the title.

Most of us feel the Raptors are champs. Impressive playoff run, Kawhi winning the chip in his first year with them.

The improvement they made within 12 months with the addition of Kawhi. From being swept by the Cavs to winning the title.

Lastly, we finally got some fresh blood. With the exception of the Spurs in 2014, last 8 years it has been either Lebron or the Warriors winning.

A great achievement and a win for basketball in general.

So callate maricon

well, technically it's a * ring, so not much ppl care except ppl from north, cos 70% of them are chinese who wears J.Lin's jersey.

[RoseCity07]

Well they are. The media would rather talk about Lebron's butthole than talk about other NBA teams.

[QUOTE=Walk on Water]Do you get that feeling? I don

[Sakkreth]

Hell yeah it feels like they are the champs. Half the time it's meh, but this year you can feel it.

Other non meh feeling chips this decade: 2011, 2012, 2014, 2016.

[Pacquiao]

Yeah i had the same feeling in 2015 and 2018 when the warriors won

The difference is it was the best player who got injured. Including 2016 though the Bogut injury and Draymond suspension, No wonder Lebron has more finals losses than anyone

How can anyone make excuse for Draymond's suspension? He's dumb that's his flaw and his fault. He should be suspended for more with the way he acts and plays.

[thefatmiral]

That's how it goes with the 1 chippers. They will be doubted again next year. But kawhi did get his resume , credentials up as a generational greatest.

[RealSkipBayless]

Please name the healthy superstars that played in the series for the Warriors.

[LAmbruh]

Feels like every other post championship



All about Lebron :oldlol: :dancin

[PP34Deuce]

The NBA doesn't really care or want a dominant team outside the US. Why do you think they push for Zion to be the face when Giannis is marketable, funny, and only 23 years old.

It's always been that way.

Plus hard to dump money into a team that you're not sure will be be back next year.

True basketball fans appreciate what Toronto did

[jayfan]

I get what you're saying, OP.

The NFL has 2.5 months between the superbowl and their draft.

The NBA has 1 week.

[TheCorporation]

Well they are. The media would rather talk about Lebron's butthole than talk about other NBA teams.

:lol

[Wally450]

By that logic, GS should've never made the Finals if they suspended Draymond for G5 of the OKC series.

[Celtics 1825]

Remember this is the same guy who can't name any players on the Bucks besides Giannis.

[TheCorporation]

Ouch :lol

[Patrick Chewing]

Blame the media. Immediately after the Raptors won, AD was traded, and the only news coming from the major networks was the probability of the Lakers winning it next year. This obsession the media has for a bona fide loser in Lebron is quite perplexing.

[3ball]

It doesn't feel like they won because the media is overplaying the warriors' injuries, despite the 16' Warriors being injured MORE

In 16', the Warriors' best player and unanimous league MVP was hurt and averaged 22 PPG vs. 30 this year... That alone trumps any injuries the Warriors had this year, without even considering Dray's suspension or bogut/Iggy injuries. The media is simply LIARS.. period..

Ur seriously going to counter curry being hurt in 16' with looney and boogie, who both played and played better than their counterparts in 16?

Again, ur just biased

Kind of like when the Warriors won their last couple of titles.

Yes any deviation from the ESPN talking points = raging drug binge

How do you enjoy life thinking that narrowly?? Cringe like a mf

You can't refute a single thing I said because it's true.. the 16' Warriors with the league MVP, Dray, Iggy and bogut all hurt were more injured than the 19' Warriors

This excludes Durant from consideration since lebron never beat a Warrior team with durant

Look, kblaze already summed your shtick up.

You will just repeat everything you said before in slightly different order.

But I'll do it once for you anyway.

Igoudala hurt himself in the 2nd quarter of game 6, came up hobbled, lied down during timeouts.

This is more than offset by Irving's 3rd quarter injury, who clashed with Ezeli who stepped on him.

"The injury occurred midway through the third quarter, with Irving running a pick-and-roll with Tristan Thompson to free himself from Klay Thompson. Warriors big man Festus Ezeli stepped on the inside of Irving's left foot near the toe while trying to show out on the perimeter."

"He also had his left foot looked at by Cavs trainer Steve Spiro on the bench at the close of the third quarter."

Irving, a far more crucial component to the team than Igoudala, took just 6 2nd half shots only making 1.

Bogut was irrelevant, his mention is of no use. He played 12 minutes per game at a negative +/-.

His net was also negative in 2015, where he was healthy and intentionally benched for the last 3 games. Any player seing himself get intentionally benched for negative impact, cannot be complained over having become injured, as his impact already proved to be irrelevant.

Curry was never injured. There are zero facts to support this.

Curry was injured in the 1st round game 4, and came back in the 2nd round game 4 with no minutes restriction, scoring 40.

Curry said he was fine, Kerr said he was fine, the medical staff cleared him. This all during his WCF road game struggles, maintaining his good health.

https://www.slamonline.com/archives/steve-kerr-steph-curry-is-not-injured/

And it's not just the words, it's also the action.

Curry scored 30+ points 3 straight times to close off the OKC Thunder in the WCF capped by a 36-point game, so it's extremely improbable to suggest he re-injured himself between then and the Finals or to say he was injured during this stretch. It's in fact senseless and delusional.

Literally the only factual/relevant injury of the series belonged to Cavaliers' Kevin Love, their 3rd wheel.

Love injured himself in game 2. Love played 20 minutes in game 2, DNP in game 3, 25 minutes in game 4, 12 minutes in game 6. After a 17-point game 1, he scored 5 points on 2-7, 11 points on 3-6, 2 points on 1-5, 7 points on 1-3, 9 points on 3-9.

Summed up:

The Cavaliers suffered an injury to Kevin Love, the Warriors suffered an injury to irrelevant Andrew Bogut.

But go ahead, re-hash your same shit to not face those demons, not realize the tunnel of lies you've let yourself in.

[red1]

nah it DEFINITELY feels like the raptors are the champs


not much room for confusion when there's a parade with 2-million+ people....

You need super-long explanations because you're wrong

I don't because I'm right

Love was diminished in 16' but that doesn't offset the unanimous league MVP being unable to withstand continued action on his MCL after the OKC series, which caused his stats to drop off a cliff versus Delly (22.6 ppg) after dominating Westbrook (27.9)

Curry was even better in the 19' Finals (30.5), and this massive upgrade over his injured 16' makes the 19' Warriors superior, even without considering Klay's massive upgrade (19 vs 26 ppg), draymond's series-altering suspension, injures to Bogut/Iggy, or Durant's 1 quarter boost in Game 5 (that offset klay's missed quarter in Game 6)

Ur just writing long ass essays to comfort yourself because the simple reality is tough to deal with (19' warriors >>> and lebron's 16' win wasn't that great)

marc gasol was the most turnt - the guy is an animal was swinging off that bus hyping everyone up in my section and it worked flawlessly. he sprayed us all with champagne too - some people were avoiding it and some people didn't mind because they knew it would be a story to tell later :oldlol:
