Ribery extends contract, What a disgrace, He obviously has no shame and our board lacks ambition too.

All Ribery has been doing lately is those monkey post Hazard like dribbles with no end product yet we reward him with an extension
What a disgrace. When Liverpool are trying to land Fekir!

Fun Fact: This raptors team people keep making fun of and are a joke would have won 75 games and the chip in the 90s. That's how bad the league was then.
Who would they beat with DeRozan's midget mentality and non 3pt shooting asss. You're reaching

I stand to be corrected but has thede been game(s) where all three (Curry, Klay and KD) played at their best together? I see people say this many times but truth is I haven't seen all 3 played at their best together.
2 of 3 or 1 of 3.
This is a very underrated point yunno

Golden State before Durant came were a massive group of overachievers. This is what the 73-9 crowd still don't get!! They were essentially a rich man's version of today's Raptors

Definitely not a better scorer. Embiid has more in his Arsenal. Giving the choice, Most coaches would rather have Embiid as their No1 scoring option.
Embiid might be slightly overrated when compared to Rudy Gobert as a defender but He is still way better than Jokic.
Like I said. Na Denver coach I blame. Jokic is the better scorer than Embiid just that he has the unique misfortune of having a coach unwilling to run the offense through him. Jokic has more range and versatility than Embiid! Don't believe the hype.

Embiid is a good defender but I always get alarmed when I see him in DPOY convos

Was about to agree with you then I realised there just aren't that many good centers in the league anymore. The league has truly evolved.
Well the game has left them behind. Especially the ones who have refused to evolve eg DeAndre Jordan.

You have to have a lot more in your locker than just blocking and rebounding.

Anyway we still have a few guys doing ok. Capela. Towns.

Nah not having that. Sure Jokic is clearly the better passer but better player?
Better scorer as well! He's an offensive warhead and his coach is clueless on how to unleash, his only downside is his defense but even Embiid is low key overrated as a defender

Durant could probably shoot over the Himalayas if they guarded him. I don't know why defenders even bother to raise their hands when you can just pray he misses

Embiid is not there yet but he's already a top 2 center in the league. The Sixer's are not only young but the coaching crew also lacks playoff experience. Give them a year or two that team will be a contender.

I also think the match up is a problem for them. Trust me, the cave are more happy to play the Celtics than the Sixer's.
Loool do you mean top 2 Center in the East? Cos he won't make top 2 in the West

Is Brad Stevens really this good or were the 76ers overhyped from the start? The 76ers just can't seem to create a clean look. Almost all their shots are being contested and their players especially saric and Covington keep bricking like they're made of clay.

There was never a time Alaba was better than marcelo. If he is taking 2013 as case study when bayern won the ucl then we might as well agree that contrao too was better than marcelo because that was what mourinho made his fans to understand which is not true.
Ancelotti also hated Marcelo? Bruhh!

2013 and 2014 Alaba was definitely better than Marcelo! Biko I no get time for any jejune debate

Matter of fact go and argue with UEFA who put him there 3 years in a row at Marcelo's expense

I do and especially since it's actually his first year in the NBA. Donovan Mitchell should be rookie of the year but unfortunately he won't win it.

What I'm saying is Ben Simmons's issues in the playoffs shouldn't be used against him because it doesn't count. That's not why he shouldn't be ROTY.
At no point have I ever felt Simmons should be Rookie of The Year whether post season or regular season. This was just a reminder

If Kyrie returns do you hold on to Rozier and Smart? It's insane that the Celts can boast of three quality point guards. This Rozier was especially mediocre last year. See how much he has improved

This is why I absolutely loathe wastemen like DeAndre Jordan who relied solely on his athleticism and never improved his game after almost 11 years in the league

As much as I like Ben, Donovan Mitchell deserves it not because of he is an actual rookie but not because of the playoffs. The playoffs doesn't count.
You don't think what Mitchell did in a tougher conference without the best defender in the league for half the season is remarkable?

Lol. We shall see. Im looking at lowrys body language. The way he folded this game is shameful. Makes him look soft

**had to edit that grin
I think everybody is being a bit harsh on the Raptors. These were the guys a significant number of people thought the friggin Wizards would beat so why the sudden turnaround in expectations that they would pose problems for the Cavs?

Their two best players are Lowry and DeRozan. We could say they are soft and we could also acknowledge their limits. The Lowry I know that was in Houston? Abi another Lowry? That they are at this point where people expect them to even beat a Lebron led team shows he has somewhat overachieved

If these guys play like this and the cavs lose no one will complain. Today, lebron definitely had help. He himself wasnt too bad either.

How you like them Jeffrey-esque jumpers?
Even as an unrepentant LeNomad basher I appreciate a player who hones his craft. If you were watching LeNomad circa 2005-2011 and they told you he would be making these kind of jumpers later on in his career you would laugh till you fall asleep. He really studied the GOAT properly and I had to applaud that J as a student of the game myself

I did. Anyone that thought cavs should have won this series is delusional. And Im a lebron fan.

Logically the rested raptors with a deep bench should have roasted the cavs in the first two home games. The cavs are old, just played a 7 game series in which lebron played almost 48 min each game. But torontos dibia is asleep undecided
Never underrate the power of matchups in this league. Some teams just get your medicine and there is not much you can do about it. Plus every Cavs role players are scoring and scoring at a high clip. They took the insults after that first round to heart and it's looking like the perfect storm.

You just hope the Raptors have the dignity to take it back to the Six
