The Official 2019 NBA Finals Thread

What court vision!

 

@dviss1 I watched a few of those video's I saw a few different schemes, defensively, but mostly straight man and putting longer guys on Dame. Didn't see 3-2, some hard traps from OKC, but they did a bad job on the gaps as they were getting split frequently with no roamer with a good angle to square up the ball handler.
Not gonna watch em all! though that's a lot of video lol.

 

yeah, I never hope to see anybody injured, no matter how stupid they were when they got injured

that's mainly because I've injured myself so many times doing stupid stuff, and even normal things; for instance:

* one time I got up late and was hurrying to get dressed and I threw my back out just trying to step into my underwear; I mean, I was out of commission for a couple of days...damn

* one time I was sanding a hardwood floor along the edges near a wall; I was down on my knees and the cord got hung up. Instead of getting up and going to free the cord, I started pulling on it harder and harder. It didn't budge so my response was first profanity, then second, I jerked that fucking cord with force, like a man with a mission. It had a big hard-plastic end that tore out of the plug, came skipping across the floor like a bullet, and nailed me violently right in the balls...then I couldn't get up but rather spent the next 15 minutes moaning in the corner in a cold sweat on the edge of puking. Damn cord

* one time I got out of the shower and went into the bedroom to get dressed. It was summer, near dusk, and the room was kind of dark but I didn't turn on the light...just went in and started to sit down on the bed. Well, little did I know that my wife's goddamn cat was napping on the bed; the cat was the same color as my wife's fucking bedspread. Apparently, the cat woke up and saw my fat ass descending on it and panicked (common reaction); it reacted like cats do when they are trying to escape doom, and one thing it did is use those same balls the cord end hit as part of a traction surface for it's extended claws as it escaped ass-death. I know this is a fairly common injury...gashed balls by cat...but if it hasn't happened to you yet, you bleed a lot; like a whole lot. And in this case as I was howling and bleeding on my wife's bedspread and carpet, she heard me howling, came running, and guess what, she didn't give a shit about me bleeding except that I was bleeding on her stuff; she started yelling at me, and swear to god, that fucking cat was sitting in the doorway watching the whole damn show. I had to cup my bleeding balls and go back onto the tile of the bathroom and bleed there.

Let my experience be a lesson to you younger guys: sit down to put on underwear, don't get pissed off at electrical cords, and don't marry women with cats.

 

Really?? No it's not... Shaq was in the Dunk spot.

 

She will get a cat after you get married.

Who else thinks Durant is hurt way worse than they are letting on?

 

Me.

I don’t think he’s coming back even if it goes 7 games. He apparently hasn’t even practiced yet and is still limping when he walks. No way he can get back to full fitness within the next two weeks having missed a month of basketball.

Raptors can win it. If they had won game 2 they would have it nearly wrapped up already with Klay also hurting. Hope it doesn’t come back to haunt them.

 

Save it Mr. Salty. Recognize the dime and the context. Don't let your hate clog up what common sense you're still hanging onto.

 

I coach that pass. It's not hard. It's basketball sense.

Youngsters don't throw alley oops though.

 

Really??

Understood, but a dime is a dime. And when you have a play like that in that situation, you gotta give props regardless of the colors of uniforms. Had Pip thrown that lob to Sheed, that would be like the Holy Grail around these parts.

 

Had pip played some actual defense the pass wouldn't have happened. That move by Kobe was one of the most casual ass crossovers I've ever seen.

 

Wish Portland couldve played this version of the warriors.

 

Ive thrown an oops in transition that got completed before...

 

Seems like Toronto should be much further ahead, especially when GS has like two healthy players left...

 

We would still have lost.

Maybe but this version of GS is not very good. DMC is like 50% of himself, and the offense is basically hope Steph makes a circus shot, which is incredible how good he is at it, but this is pretty bad basketball...
