    After the first two games, I felt like a complete imbecile for having voted Raptors in 6. I still find it unlikely at this point.

    People say Harden's offense is predictable, Giannis running head first first into 4 defenders and turning the ball over late in the 4th pretty much sums up their offense.

    1 turnover from Kawhi. 1. In an intense game 5 on the road.

    If that was on coach Bud, then it was a huge mistake. Perhaps fatal knowing the next and 1st elimination game is in Toronto.

    How could the 2019 MVP let this happen on his own home court?

    Oh boy!

    Can't wait for the "Harden's a choker" media personalities to deliver the same scathing criticism to Giannis tomorrow morning. :rolleyes:

    Where's Max Kellerman when's he's not farting on live television? :D

    This is why coaches like MDA and Bud are unlikely to ever win a championship.

    In a competitive seven game series, the opposition coach is likely to make adjustments between and/or during games. Failure to respond in kind will likely cost you the series.

    Nick Nurse tried different things in the first two games but has since made key adjustments, and, continues to fine tune those adjustments. We are still waiting for Bud to make his move.

    Agree with everything here. I will be disappointed to not see that matchup.

    The Greek Thug reminds me on offense of a younger Blake Griffin, who would just "bully" his way to the rim and rely on the whistle.

    That was an awesome game and it's crazy how Giannis can just Budenholz his way over people and get the foul called. If those are charges, I wonder how productive he is. Kawhi and Van Vleet, man those two were gunning tonight. And actually Van Vleet should've gotten more shots up instead of those stretches where Siakam took all the shots.

    Credit Nurse for sticking with Gasol, I would've gone to Ibaka right at that timeout when Gasol hit a 3 in the play out of it. Love the Raptors, hope they close it out at home and Kawhi needs to stay man! Love his attitude, he's really something special. Harden doesn't have that confidence yet in the clutch.

    I'm going to Toronto next week so hope to go to Jurrasic Park or a sports bar and root for them against the disgusting Warriors!
