donlittle25:Lol I thought the Warriors would make it a nail biter by winning Game 4 and at least making it a 6 game series. That final play just said it all. The Ill advised 3 then the Steph turnover. This is a team that only knows to win one way. Unfortunately they have ran into a wall that they can't match up for or have any answers to |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 5:38am On May 09, 2023 |
Skrrrrrrr: Still think I'm capping? I hate to say this but I told may fellow warriors fans so Lakers on 5 or 6. We are just delaying the inevitable |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 5:40am On May 09, 2023 |
A40: Hope y'all see that I wasn't capping when I said those things Lakers in 5 or 6 I'm so sure about this |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 5:40am On May 09, 2023 |
When I said all these pundits are blind. And the bookies are just out to steal your money. Cos how will anyone look at how these teams match up and think the Warriors were favorites. How?? |
Re: The NBA Begins by Kilishihunter: 5:42am On May 09, 2023 |
Seems bron is on his way to another NBA final, This Lakers roster is gpddamn stacked |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 5:43am On May 09, 2023 |
A40: Lolll Abi o bros The thing about warriors fans is that they can be so delusional. I know, trust me Poole should be offloaded. I was against them giving that guy a big contract from the start. He was an untested rookie.. Klay needs to sit his ass on the bench We need kuninga playing guard with curry while we trade for 2 more bigs. That's what I'll do |

What a game. What a nailbiter. Game ball goes to Lonnie Walker. He stayed ready. But Steve Kerr though. Man really cooked. As soon as I heard GPII was starting I began to wonder what he was cooking. That's 3 starting lineups in 4 games. Credit to Darvin Ham for having answers to all of them. Steph did some nice playmaking tonight and his teammates knocked down shots when open. But I think I'd rather have Steph the playmaker than Steph the shooter. Let him go 30 and 15 rather than 45 and 6. On to game 5. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Kilishihunter: 5:47am On May 09, 2023 |
A40:Them dey predict NBA on tete? When the smaller euroleague is really unpredictable atimes talkless of the big dawg, Cavaliers and the bucks sent home as favourites should have taught many punters lessons |

Blueelf:Poole don gbe una handicap, Man looks lost |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 5:51am On May 09, 2023 |
Budenholzer lost his job but Kerr makes even worse mistakes and get to keep his Sometimes I don't understand how the NBA thinks You sat kuminga on the bench all series but let Klay play nonsense after nonsense I've said it before, Klay Thompson os the one that needs to get traded and not even Draymond...Him and Poole can go to Detroit..thank you |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 5:51am On May 09, 2023 |
Blueelf:Is it really Warriors fans? I think it was mostly Lakers fans that were pretending this series would be tough. I just didn't see it. Cos I saw their regular season games and just their overall matchup Warriors got carried away by that Denver series and some flashes in the Finals and latter series as well but like I always say judge a player by their floor not their ceiling. Any player you make your cornerstone cannot be a yoyo player a Lebron, Giannis, Luka, Butler you know you're getting 15 pts minimum and competent level play. When the Warriors lose they would be smart to blow this thing up and look at who can run with Steph for the Final stretch of his career. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 5:54am On May 09, 2023 |
Kilishihunter: My brother It was obvious after the seven game series vs the kings that this guy wasn't it Yet Kerr decided to keep him on If Mike brown was still with us, I doubt he'll allow Kerr make some.kind weird decisions As in how is Poole still playing over kuminga? And how come we're still stxiking with jacking up three's. We had guys that could drive to the rim ....but no, we had to take nonsense deep threes Make I hear anybody troll lebron for here if I Jo go swear for your papa |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 5:56am On May 09, 2023 |
A40: Your last paragraph sums it up Klay and Poole isn't it I feel kuminga may just be the wild card. Dude is decent and very hungry |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 5:56am On May 09, 2023 |
Kilishihunter:Bookies dey tire to chop people money? Let's see what the odds of who wins the series will be now? Smart people after seeing that odds go don run go chop Sara money (I'm one of them btw) Euroleague is different beast because you don't really know who is who. Barcelona looking really strong and I thought Madrid were down and out but have tied their series. Anadolu Efes did back to back titles and this year didn't even make playoffs |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 5:57am On May 09, 2023 |
Blueelf:Klay should be traded? Klay and Poole or Draymond and Poole? Abi is it not the same podcast Draymond that has been playing like trash for a couple of seasons? Part of Curry's success is being paired with a shooter like Klay. Poole and Draymond can go. The team wasn't physically or mentally built to win this season. Every honest warriors fan knew. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 6:00am On May 09, 2023 |
And yes we needed KD for those rings against lebron Curry has shown time and again when he comes up against lebron that he can't do much by himself Warriors fans like to pretend but without KD, we for no see those 2 rings Imagine a KD in this series on our side Lolllll...for get matter abeg!! 5 Likes |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 6:04am On May 09, 2023 |
SmooshCHN: Bros, if Draymond goes, our defense falls apart and you know this How can you still keep faith in Klay? That guy don go now..those I juries rendered him less potent. The guy no fit do anything again and you know it Poole can go abeg..even though I can understand you rooting for Klay because of old glory but Poole can go to the Shanghai sharks for all I care You want our defense to fall like Legos ....trade Draymond ke? Does curry have the voice to keep those youngsters in line? Curry is not a true leader abeg. He is just skillful and a good shooter ..the real locker room engine is Draymond....abeg make Poole begin park him bags. There are lots of asian baddies in china last I checked or even in inner city detroit |
Re: The NBA Begins by Skrrrrrrr: 6:05am On May 09, 2023 |
Blueelf: Omo... I can keep shut when lakers fan speak cos they just got the win but not some KD fan boy. You KD stans need to take several seats and shut the hell up. Your matter is already long dead and buried... |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 6:05am On May 09, 2023 |
A40: Bro, na because my money dey invested into one personal project....I for stake Lakers and I go done dey smile go bank... I knew from the start ..you can bear me witness how I warned GSW fans after the kings series....and after the media was talking full nonsense 1 Like |

Blueelf: The one game we won was actually due to Klay. Nigga stop capping... |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 6:06am On May 09, 2023 |
Skrrrrrrr: You're the one who needs to shut the hell up This series just proved it You think if we face lebron last playoffs, we would've won? Loll, abeg we needed KD and to add insult to injury, make KD come win this chip, I won't let you hear word 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 6:08am On May 09, 2023 |
Skrrrrrrr: Lolll Due to Klay? And Draymond nearly had a triple double ? Who does most of the defensive work? Oga, make Klay dey go If his ego won't let him sit on the bench, he can take his leave Ask any GM in the NBA, after these last 2 season, Dem go trade am...and I'm sure the warriors organization is surely considering it now |
Re: The NBA Begins by Skrrrrrrr: 6:14am On May 09, 2023 |
Blueelf: Ogbeni shut up abeg.... KD got swept by the celtics last season. LeBron didn't even make the playoffs. How can you face someone that wasn't even good enough for the playoffs? KD has as much chance of winning the chip, as I do getting drafted into the NBA... |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 6:17am On May 09, 2023 |
Why the argument here? The series is not over If you win game 5 at Chase then you can see what will happen in game 6. Don't lose hope. After all LeBron did it in 2016. 4 Likes |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 6:18am On May 09, 2023 |
Blueelf:Hehehe relax. Since you already knew this series was a wrap like I did you no need too vex. Like I said this Warriors team if they want to maximize what is left of Steph's prime they are going to have to let go of some fan favorites. There's no point paying abhorrent luxury tax for a team that can't win it all. |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 6:21am On May 09, 2023 |
Blueelf:And where did this same Draymond get the Warriors to this season? Him focus to dey d1ckride Bron for podcast. I don't even see the need for his defence when he's proven to be a bad teammate and an offensive liability. He hasn't done much for the team in a while. GPII's defence is what brought the win last season and I can argue we'd have lost if we faced the Lakers that season. Imagine the best defender after Draymond is Gary Payton. That's laughable. Trade Poole for a decent defensive big and get PJ Tucker in there to check those splash girls abeg. It can't be more simpler than that. 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by Afromentalist: 6:22am On May 09, 2023 |
Blueelf:You too dey overreact. Trading Klay and Poole and keep Draymond ? Lool. |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 6:23am On May 09, 2023 |
A40:I don't think any serious warriors fan would cry about it to be honest. |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 6:24am On May 09, 2023 |
But by and large, this series has been relatively even. The Lakers are 3-1 up but it could easily have been the other way around. Game 1, the Warriors could have won it. It was literally tied with less that 2 minutes to go. Game 2, Warriors blow the Lakers out and the Lakers reciprocate in game 3. Game 4 went right down to the wire and the Warriors could have been the ones smiling at the end. The Lakers have not been the dominant team in this series. They just happened to have won 2 clutch games. That's why I won't sit here and say the series is over. 3 Likes 1 Share |
