Hmmm I wonder if OG is going to be available at some point?
Nope seems unlikely

It feels like Groundhog Day. Read the same things in rounds two and three. Raps have no chance, got it. Time to get to work. Raps in six. GS has no idea what's coming for them. Perfect.
Ha ha! He's a tool from way back on the SF Giants board.
Kawhi's a decent shooter, but as a PG, it's Steph's job to be a facilitator. In terms of judging a player, Kawhi has near the offensive impact on a game that Steph as, along with a significant impact on the defensive end (which Steph doesn't). Kawhi just shut Giannis down to make the NBA Finals.
And in terms of leadership, you don't really know what type of leader Kawhi is.

Like @bksballer89 , I picked the Warriors in 7. Again, nice try.
Series Thread: - 2nd round: Houston Rockets vs Golden State Warriors
Bullshit. Curry has been irreplaceable. Leonard did not have the best player in the league go down with injury and have to take over himself.
I do not.
Even if offense were 80% and defense 20%,
Kawhi would still be better.
Because Curry isn't that much better offensively than Kawhi.
Or at least he has not been in the playoffs.
In fact, Kawhi has been better offensively than Curry has since the playoffs started.
A lot of folks are picking Warriors in 5, but are they even considering who has home court? Seems much more likely they win in 6, at home. Something like split in Toronto, take 3 and 4 at home, lose 5, win in 6
warriors are 6-2 on the road in the playoffs
I really love what Kawhi has done for the Raptors and if he is smart, he will sign with Toronto in free agency, but they cannot beat the Warriors1. If you don’t understand that Steph has impact on a defense never seen before in NBA history, I can’t help you.
2. The fact we don’t know what kind of leader Kawhi is tells you all you need to know about that. He’s never been spoken of as a leader. Not much negative talk about him either, but nothing postive. With Steph, there is ZERO doubt.
Again, Steph is in a different stratosphere. He’s changed the entire game.
You’re looking through too narrow a lens. It’s not Steph v. Kawhi. It’s Stephs effect on the game vs Kawhi’s. When Steph is out there, he opens up the game for every one of his teammates. The gravity of his presence leaves others wide open. Kawhi, as great as he is, doesn’t do that. He doesn’t completely change the game the way Steph’s game does.

Its going to be tough but we are here. And the games still need to be played.
They earned their spot in the finals and they will fight to the last buzzer.
This team is full of heart and grit. Hopefully they have enough to shock the NBA world
LOL! Somebody is triggered.
Never said he was. But he’s responsible for that whole AD cockup. And the retardation of a good young core. Dude is bad news. I’m glad it happened to the Lakers.
