Skrrrrrrr:Klay was present in 3 of the Warriors losses. Stop pushing the narrative that he was absent for majority of the series. He missed essentially a game and a quarter. They were hot and Klay was cooking but they were only up 2. 2 friggin points |

Skrrrrrrr:What is this megedefegede you are talking about? KD came to a team with just one title, were coming off a losing finals appearance. Durant came and the team won 2 straight titles and it could have been 3 if Durant didn't get injured. Durant won Finals MVP 2x. Whether you like it or not no amount of KD bad belle will erase the fact that on the Warriors Kevin Durant was the best player. That is what Warriors fans will forever have to deal with. I don't know why you keep dribbling back to OKC. We already established KD couldn't win there. However Warriors could not establish dominance and dynasty status till they got KD. That is the fact on ground Stop repeating this Klay Thompson alternative facts. Klay Thompson played 5 games and only missed 1 quarter out of a possible 6 games. He was healthy and available to average almost 40 minutes per game If they don't beat Boston then it will ultimately prove they would not be a dynasty without Kevin Durant KD was in the league 9 years and didn't win anything. Predicting he wouldn't win a title after suffering an Achilles tear at over 30 is hardly a bold take |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 11:03pm On Jun 02, 2022 |
Android22:Nobody absolutely nobody has benefitted from injuries like Golden State. Who was injured in the Cavs series? Andrew Bogut? LOL. Abeg 2015 They beat the Cavs who were missing Love and Kyrie 2017 Beat the Spurs thanks to Zaza taking Kawhi out with the Spurs blowing out Golden State in Oakland 2018 Beat the Rockets thanks to Chris Paul getting hurt while the Warriors were down 3-2 after Game 5 Several games with key players injured in multiple title runs. Again the Warriors issue was not getting to the Finals. They did that before Kevin Durant came. This is their 3rd attempt at winning a Finals without him. They have only succeeded once at this. So nothing like they are good for two rings. They absolutely need to win |

A40:Warriors beat Cavs 4-2 in 2015, OKC 4-3 in 2016, Rockets 4-3 in 2018 etc. Warriors usually don't win series 4-0 (that is the point). Klay was present for 2 of the 3 confirmed losses and at the same time the Raptors had lost 2 games with him playing. So it was 2-2 with Klay and Steph against a raptors that had homecourt in that finals which means they were a solid team. You might say Klay left the game with GSW being 2 pts up but GSW lost that game by 4 without Klay who already had 30. That is how important he was. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Android22: 11:23pm On Jun 02, 2022 |
A40: Will GSW beat Cavs in 2015 without Iggy? So why will anyone laugh if we say we lost that game without him? That is the same way with Bogut playing we were 3-1 up against the Cavs in 2016. There is no special spin anyone can give to it. That 2015-16 Rockets played GSW without Steph, 2016-17 we beat Portland without KD 2017-18 we beat Spurs first round without Curry 2018-19 we beat the Rockets/Portland without KD 2018-19 we lose to Raptors without KD and Klay If we are going to nitpick, Cavs played all playoffs without Love and lost game 1 with Kyrie playing. Kawhi 67-15 played against OKC and got beat 4-2 in 2015-16 but somehow will beat the 73-9 warriors with KD playing. How? If you want to say this is 3rd final without KD that is fine, but you cannot use injuries for Cavs in 2015 and then belittle the warriors injury in 2016. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 11:49pm On Jun 02, 2022 |
Android22:Same way Raptors won 4-2. For each Warriors injury I would show you more significant ones on the other team. The Warriors had no advantage over the Raptors. Klay being there only meant at best they won Game 6 but the game was still in the balance anyway. Klay played 32 mins in that game 6. He was present for 3 losses. Not 2 |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:05am On Jun 03, 2022 |
Android22:Yeah you would have missed Bogut's 3 points and 3 rebounds in that series The Rockets were the 8th seed ffs have some shame. Vs Portland KD played 2 of the 4 games. I don't know why you're bragging about beating inferior teams. KD-Klay and Draymond can't beat Lamarcus Aldridge, Rudy Gay and Ginobili who was like 42?? Stop this without Klay nonsense vs the Raptors. He played in 5 of a possible 6 games. Cavs beat up inferior teams when Love was hurt but when facing a team of equal quality they were shorthanded while the Warriors were complete. Those are the facts on ground for the 15 season What does what happened the previous season have to do with the beatdown San Antonio were serving in the Oracle? The Warriors were down by 27 before Zaza took Kawhi out. You want to use the Raptors with Klay missing 1 quarter as an excuse but I can't use Kawhi missing the series? Rockets were up 3-2 and lost their second or arguably their best player. Can't talk about Klay when CP3 lost 2 full games No team has caught more breaks than the Warriors against evenly matched competition 1 Like |

felix00: His guys are pulling him along so far. If White and AL keep this up the Celtics might just steal one without Tatum even shooting well. Tatum played well on defense and as a playmaker though |

We got the split in the worst case scenario. Excellent adjustment by Ime in the 2nd and 4th. I thought we always stood a chance despite going down double digits because other than Curry, no one else was consistently giving us problems. Nothing to see here, it’s only game 1.. On to game 2 #Greenrunsdeep #Celticpride 1 Like 2 Shares |
Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 4:28am On Jun 03, 2022 |
One thing about the Celtics through out this playoffs is that they have more guys who can on a day just go for 20+pts. 2 of the Bucks loss came from AL scoring 30 in one game, and Grant scoring 25 in another. If they continue that trend in this finals series, they can go all the way. |

What a game by my Celtics. Tuned in after watching Super Eagles lose to see us trailing by as much as 11 points. I may just watch this finals afterall. |
