I think the gameplan is to double team Steph on the screens, contain Klay and make the role players beat you.

But Steph is Steph. He's gonna get open and hit his shots. But if Kawhi bounces back and continues shadowing Klay, that should be enough for them.

Yeah, definitely expecting Kawhi to heat up in the second half. Curry or Klay or both are inevitably going to string together some big shots though too.

Litwing · 05-30-2019, 09:24 PM

Hoping Raptors can get game 1, at least one game man.

Yup. One thing the Raps are doing a much better job (at least for a half) than what we saw with Houston or Portland is that they're crowding Steph off those screens with help defenders. But he's going to make the impossible, because that's what Steph does.

go gasol, iggy, and siakam---fun second half. ten points is nothing,GS clean it up, and its tied boom! Durant pulls the willis reed entrance at some point this series, i say boooooooooooooo!

Melagoo · 05-30-2019, 09:31 PM

SEE ... Attack HIM

pennywise · 05-30-2019, 09:32 PM

Man, Gasol has been great on both ends.

Melagoo · 05-30-2019, 09:36 PM

nice fast break Raps!

M4YH3M1 · 05-30-2019, 09:37 PM

GSW just lull you to sleep with all their running around then all of a sudden, "oh sh1t, theres a wide open Klay or Curry"

Melagoo · 05-30-2019, 09:37 PM

Kwahi the foul magnet

ninjacookies · 05-30-2019, 09:37 PM

Whatever that PBM Goldminer says, bet the house against it. Siakam will undoubtedly get the Finals MVP now.

Siakam is in the scoring zone!

Ha ha.

It could be someones alt account.

What was Siakam paying before this game?

And someone was saying that Kawhi had no Pippen.

Curious what his next bold prediction is. I already have my vegas money ready.

No clue. But I'd prefer he not continue to play at this level so I can afford more of him this offseason...

He is the Paul Pierce of Blowout

ballhawkdawk · 05-30-2019, 09:42 PM

So much for the Warriors blowing the Raptors away.

drobfan8 · 05-30-2019, 09:42 PM

I don't get the Jordan Bell mins this game either.

Get your best screener and big man passer some mins. Andrew Bogut!

That's being way too hard on Pierce.

What were Siakam’s MVP odds?

ninjacookies · 05-30-2019, 09:49 PM

All this and the Warriors are only down by 7.

I guess good side is that Raps didn't completely implode early like the Blazers.

CubKings · 05-30-2019, 09:53 PM

I may be in the minority, or just the minority by myself, but I think Curry is an ugly player. Haha I just don't like his style, his shot or anything. Most of the time he looks like a awkward little kid playing against a bunch of older kids. I don't get all the excitement from watching him at all.

And he flails on every shot trying to get calls. But only Harden gets sh!t for that...

Agree. Not sure why we haven't seen any Bogut.
