[QUOTE=Milbuck]I highly doubt Giannis or Kawhi will guard each other for big stretches and any time they do will be a mistake by the coach. Giannis is too damn tall/long to chase Kawhi around screens, and his primary value is as a help defender anyways. Also Kawhi isn't big enough to handle Giannis in the paint, and the Raptors would be better off having him shut down Middleton. He might get a couple good deflections or something but Giannis will wear him down if he has to do it possession after possession.
Also yeah, those defensive stats are pretty misleading. Kawhi mainly guarded him on switches off ball. The like 2 or 3 times he straight up guarded him he looked like a child guarding his dad.[/QUOTE]

Congrats my raptors brothers!!!!
Parade down yonge street this year fellas!
Finally got done watching the 2nd half. Must have been crazy watching that live for Raps fans after all the disappointments over the years.
Props to Masai for rolling the dice on the Kawhi trade. He went all in for this season and it actually worked.
Glad for Lowry especially.

poor kid has been calling for a craptors sweep since the first round.
it's been nothing but daily dry ass-f[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]ckings for him since. poor kid's butthole has seen more action than steven spielberg's camera.

I'm just waiting till he turns 18 so I can go to his house and ask his mom if he's home. So I can knock his bitch ass into a coma and off the keyboard.

Kawhi > Giannis ... it's not close right now
People picking the Bucks are trusting Giannis > Kawhi.. man.. some of y'all are just pathetic
since they're so similarly matched it will absolutely come down to which superstar plays the best
I cannot understand anyone picking Giannis over Kawhi right now. :facepalm[/QUOTE]

It becomes evident that it was the No2's, and how lowry totally outplayed Middleton, that actually decided the series. If lowry played like this last year they would probably push the cavs as well
btw its interesting how "locked-up" Giannis still shot better from the field than kawhi, while also having a comparable 3PT% (FT was attrocious though)
