Looking forward to game 6.

steady986:
I didn't see Kawhi guarding Stephen on more than 2 possessions in that game. And I only remember Stephen making one 3 off a screen when Kawhi was guarding him. So what are u saying?

lol

Sorry about your eye sight.

Curry was guarded by Kawhi on atleast 3 possessions. All 3 times Curry made his bucket and 2 of the times were mid range 2's were Curry sent him the wrong direction before swishing in one and using the board in the other for a layup. Notice I am not referring to the 3 you are referring to.
If you need evidence, just google Kawhi guarding Steph and see what turns up.

I am not even taking anything away from Kawhi as he is just a monster. But I disabusing that narrative about his defence on certain players.

In case you forgot, GSW IN 7!

steady986:
Lol, it's crazy how folks can go from 'we don't need KD, we're better without him' to 'I hope he's ready for game 5, we really need him'. Dudes, KD don't give a sh#t about GS right now, his bags are already packed. You think after all the insults from fans and players alike he's gonna want to play through the injury? Hell, who even knows if he's not the one faking the injury sef?

The earlier y'all accept this defeat the better for y'all.

You are nervous. I told you. Pray the NBA cancels game 5. That is your only chance.

SmooshCHN:
I don't like the idea of KD playing this game. If anything it's KD wanting to play cos I know the Warriors will never try to risk his career for one ring.

If I am being honest, I don't care who plays it won't matter.

GSW won this game and the series.

It already happened. Not going to. Already did.

CuteRedd:
sincerely I applaud you for this. But as ipledge said, my heart is turninonion

LOL.

Fear not.

It has already happened.

CuteRedd:
at least he would help the spacing and free up steph and klay kinda or give kd easy buckets.

Mans are still talking about back and forth with Kawhi that I said could not guard Steph or Klay. That 47pt game was so funny. Steph abused him so much.

But of course..no word (not because we lost) but because it does not suit the narrative that he is this defensive juggernaut.

steady986:
I'll be here, up and doing, ready to troll the living day lights out of you and your kind

Sadly, you won't be. There would be no trolling.

Today starts it all. It has already happened.

steady986:
Then Green, Igoudala, Livingston and Cook are all superstars.

Raptors in 5

Kevon looney and Jordan Bell are also superstars.

Pray for the Raptors if you want to troll GSW that the NBA will say the series should end now. If there is a game 5, GSW have won already in 7.

Hope you'd be online by then.

steady986:
Then Klay was a superstar as well in 2014

Then Siakam, Gasol, Ibaka and Lowry are superstars.

Warriors in 7 still.

ipledge10:
Thats a strong statement. I can’t argue, that’s how my friend swore Raptors winning both games at Oracle. I mocked him and screenshot the message. I don’t know what u see, so I’m going with Warriors in 7

All I see is the GSW 2018/19 NBA finals champs. You heard/read it here first.

steady986:
Was Curry a superstar in 2014?

Yes he was. That was his coronation. He was a star from 2013/14. In 14/15 he became a superstar.

ipledge10:
I wish I have your kind of confidence. I don’t even think I’m gonna watch...I think I will just sleep from 8pm to like midnight, then check the score when I wake up. I have good feeling we at are winning game 5

I was down after game 4. I actually thought the series was over in 5 going by game 4. Then I slept, woke up and got a different message.

Now I am 100% sure, GSW won this in 7!

steady986:
Well, it seems we have a disagreement on what a superstar is. But we were talking of whether Klay was already good in 2014, and I tell you he was, cos he averaged 21.7 that year, while Curry averaged 23.8.

What does ppg have to do with superstardom?

We were not talking about if Klay was good. You said Klay was a superstar and I said he was not. Siakam is good now too..he is not a superstar. My argument.

ipledge10:
I think we win game 5 and 6 but lose game 7.

Brother, have you known me to talk for the sake of it?

I am telling you what will happen.

GSW in 7!
Warriors in 7!

Warriors name is etched on the 2018/2019 NBA title.

steady986:
KD or no KD, Raptors in 5

Hahaha haha.

Warriors in 7.

If GSW don't win the title, I will delete my account.

My name is Eruditor. Watch this space.

steady986:
Was Klay a splash brother in 2014/2015 or not?

Again, you change the narrative to dodge the topic. Scoring 34 don't make Siakam a superstar. And scoring 5 don't make Klay any less of a superstar.

So what made Klay a superstar?

I don't want to question your ability to understand things.

Klay had won no ring. Klay was only an all-star for the first time that season because GSW won 67 games.

So what narrative is changing? There is nothing Klay did in that finals that Siakam has not equalized.

Abi don't you know what a superstar is? Klay is a superstar now. But he was not a superstar in 14/15.

ipledge10:
I disappeared from the face of the Earth after game 4. Steve Kerr just confirmed the KD have been cleared to practice, Hopeful for game 5.

My hope is still up

I pledge to you, GSW will win game 5 and this series will get to game 7 where we shall win.

You can quote me. I will be here...LIVE.

steady986:
The fact that he didn't show up in game 6 don't mean that he wasn't a superstar. He averaged 21.7 in that regular season, which is around his usual average. And besides, he scored 34 points in game 2 of that final.

So is Siakam a superstar?

He scored 34 in game 1 as well. And has averaged more points this finals than Klay did in 14/15.

You see how the double standard works out?

Anyways, no need for the long talk. GSW in 7!

steady986:
Lol. So Klay was not a superstar then

Klay Thompson? LOL

FVV is having a better finals this finals than Klay did in 2014/15.

Klay had 5pts in game 6. 5 points.

That is an aside, because, Warriors in 7!

Pointguardusa:
Well dub nation.

Dub Nation in 7!

KarnThornheart:
I'm in s unique position where what ever happens in this series, I win. So it really doesnt matter.

You are right sha. Have fun.

Just incase you forgot, Warriors in 7!

KarnThornheart:
Everybody knows kelly olynyk saved steph currys legacy.

LOL. Okay.

KarnThornheart:
You alright? You sound pissed mate

LOL @ pissed. Let me ask you what I asked people here in 2015/16?

Why not wait to troll when the series is 4-1?

Anyways, warriors in 7!

smokers:
kawhi was clutch yesterday kept hitting daggers. but that mccinie or what's his name and Livingston. I cringe anytime I see them on the court

His first clutch game against GSW in the finals. But see how he is now a super star with other "decent" players. Oya, people should come and tell us the super stars Curry had in 2014/15? Instead what we kept hearing was how injuries helped GSW. But Injuries have not helped Raptors now? lol
The double standard is crazy.

KarnThornheart:
Just to piss off a currysexual

Nobody who loves Curry is pissed. I would give Curry 3 more rings if the price is 0 FMVPs and he would accept it with both hands and a leg.

FYI Curry averaged 26 and 6 in the finals. Guess the only player from a winning team with that type of stat that did not win FMVP? Yup.

Some others averaged 16 and less than even 5 assists and won it.

Iggy missed how many FTs in the final moments of games 4-6?

Curry only had one bad game 3 and that was it.

yomi96:
so kd is now the problem? After taking pay cut just to play for you guys?You ought to be ashamed of your self.

LOL.

Where did anyone say KD is the problem?

I am the one who said KD is not going anywhere. I am the one who said he is the best player in basketball. Not Kawhi. Not Lebron. Not Giannis. Not Curry. Not Harden.

But this narrative that being down 3-1 proves we needed him and not the other way around is inane. We won Rockets and Blazers when people said same. They should rest.

^^^

Warriors in 7!

I did not stop you from saying Raptors in 5. It is a free world.

Roland17:
Low risk, high reward prediction, very smart guy.
You have nothing to lose if the Warriors suffer a gentle man sweep or lose the series before game 7 or even after game 7 but you would be revered as the 2nd coming of B. Idahosa if your prediction comes to pass.

No predictions in this. I am going with my heart squarely. Has nothing to do with who is coming back, what Kerr should do etc.

I had nothing to lose when we were down in certain games that I was insisting we would win. Yet even when we led by the half yesterday I kept mute about winning. It is a heart thing.

Warriors in 7!

yomi96:
kikiki, this got me rolling on the floor, wake up guy, this is reality, not la la land. Shey una and draymond say kd can go abi, well it is now obvious, you guys need him more than he need you guys.

Rubbish.

KD is a GSW player. There is nothing like we need him more than he needs us. I don't remember him winning without us but there is sufficient evidence that we have won without him. I don't take hot-take and kneejerk analysts seriously. If he was not here we would have had a better bench not G league level players who are missing open shots...consistently.


That being said, Warriors in 7!

So let me understand something, you people are happy RM signed Hazard, Jovic etc. Want them to sign more. But if it is Pep he is trying to buy titles?

steady986:
Chai, even after the gentleman's sweep some people here will still be blaming the referee. Issorait

Warriors in 7!

KarnThornheart:
.

Naah, I only blamed him because he is the star player. The rest of the players did worse a job. 17 Turnovers and 9 missed free throws compared to them.
