**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[lynchpin33]

Middleton was like n**** you really just gone leave

Middleton's face looked like he just got a skip pass from Greek Freak double team and they needed him to hit a jumper to go up one with 10 seconds remaining....

No matter what happens at least I have a lot more intrigue than last years finals

Toronto, MIL and maybe even Philly would have destroyed that Cleveland team

I had warriors over raps in 6 in the bracket, without Dur

Bron still does not get enough props for that run, was his next leading scorer even in double digits?

 

[QU!K]

The 2 “MVP” candidates this year have been proven to be less than MVP caliber as I’ve said all along.

It’s almost like MVP is a regular season award

Shut up

You said Kawhi wasn’t a #1 option

Just proves how weak a team he had that year. They went 7 games with Indy and an irvingless Boston

Their regular season was a **** show, especially defensively

Nipsey

I can totally see this and I’m 100% down for it.

RIP #TMC

Like I said I had Bucks in 7 I ain’t lie. I ain’t got nothing to hide.

Bucks were the better team, COTY, and MVP

I’m happy I was wrong

How is it the revenge tour if they won the last 2 years???

Revenge to me is if they lost or were heavy underdogs

Steph better hope he plays well if he wants that mvp.

Steph Revenge Tour
A lot of y’all have picked the W’s to lose since the playoffs started. Each round the narrative has shifted

All 3 finalist had sub-MVP series.

Giannis had a 100 ORTG, 51.8% TS, and 48.1% EFG against the Raptors and blew a 2-0 lead. Yuck

Harden against the Warriors: 119 ORTG, 59.4% TS, 53.4% EFG with 35/7/6 on 44% shooting.

Do I get to refer to the #GreekFraud as a choker now then? If Harden choked, what did Giannisn't do?

Just want to see what type of standards we're supposed to be holding these guys to.

Gotta choke for 5 years. That’s what it took for people to turn on Westbrook a couple years ago and that’s what it took for people to turn on harden this year

Masai really is god, only mistake was Bruno Caboclo, and even that looks not so bad in hindsight.


His mistake with Bruno was not stashing him in europe.

I haven’t been on NT for nearly 10 years... came on here to say hi to my fellow Raptors fans (OKB comes to mind)...

4 more wins!!! Let’s go!!

Got it. Since we hold Harden's 6MOY 3rd season of his career against him and every series he's lost where they've literally been the underdog prior to the series and then losing to the greatest team of all time 4 times, then we just got one more year for Giannis then? 3 straight first round exits and then the Raps series.
