I think the Raptors drawing level with Milwaukee has led me to believe, somewhat reluctantly, that the 76ers may have been a decent team. Ugh!

But neither Eastern Conference team is going to be more than a bump in the road for Golden State, especially if Iggy and especially Durrant get back. Even without either of them back, the East team is toast. And if Cousins comes back, too. It's just that much more lopsided. I hope everybody comes back for at least one more year at GS. I'd really like to see just how good that team could be with everyone healthy and learning to work together for a year.

Durant is not coming back, he'll sell out again and jump ship, GS does look like the favorite but it's not over until it's over. I'm sure they still recall the 3-1 games lead they blew against LeBron.

I want the best more hungry team coming out the East to face GS, Toronto stepped their game level up these 2 past games, not sure if they'll keep it up

Why do you think Durant won't come back? GS can pay him just as much, if not more than anyone else. And I can't imagine he'd have more fun playing with any other group of guys. And finally, why move? W's are moving into the best new arena in the NBA and will be in San Francisco, not in the East Bay next year, so he won't even have to commute across the Bay.
Some reporters have been saying it is 100% that KD goes to the Knicks. I think he wants what Lebron did in Cleveland more than what he did in Miami. KD got the finals MVP, but some people including me think GS would have won those titles even without him. Look at how well they are playing without him.

Of maybe the Knicks hit the fuckin' jackpot without Dolan screwing it up for the first time in history and they sign some second tier free agent like Kyrie. They DSJ is still the second best player on the team and the third best player is a chronic and terminal knucklehead. You put Durrant on the Knicks the Kyrie and they're a first round exit if they're lucky. If the more likely scenario kicks in, Durrant kills someone with his bare hands before the New Year. With the bad luck that Knicks fans have, it won't be Dolan.

They say “it’s not a series until the home team has lost a game.” Well, it’s a series now in the East. Kawhi did what a superstar is supposed to do — he put his team on his back and said “Let’s go!” And Fred VanVleet is having himself a series, too. I think Toronto finishes it off at hone in six. I’m slightly surprised.

Can Leonard with the raptors be the new monster in the East that eats golden state? I would like to see toronto win it all but leonard may have already used his miricle this year.
I think the consensus is that only golden state can beat golden state. in fighting , injuries and lack of focus to open the door Originally Posted by Mr.Dingle
They are looking better than GS right now, If Durant don't come back to the series it's a wrap! 3 more games gentlemen

Maybe now people will stop w/ this silly notion that GS is better w/o KD. People let that Blazers series fool them. The Blazers were not a good defensive team. Raptors are not the Blazers. The Raptors are a totally different beast. KD's absence was very apparent last night on both the defensive and offensive sides of the ball.

KD will be back. But I think GS takes game 2 without his first. But we’ll just have to see. Crowd in Toronto will have a big effect. Finals are so much more interesting without LeBron. That makes planning for the Western Conference team harder because it gives the Eastern Conference team more options.

If KD don't come back, I don't see this series going to 7 games, Toronto should win game 2

My cock did get hard when GS lost last night, maybe Drake trolling them is getting to them
NBA is rigged 🤣

Nice game by GS last night. Played through some adversity and injuries. Raptors can’t play as hot as they did in Game 1 all series and they didn’t. GS even survived going stone cold the last six minutes of the game. It’ll be interesting to see how things look on the injury front in the next few days. Hurts not having Klay.
GAme 5 golden state should win this finals with no problems with or without KD

TOR blew it Sunday, plain and simple. Would shock me if they aren't down 3-1 for G5.

Don't care who wins as I am a LeBron fan, but it did make me a lil pissed that GS won G2 tho
