2018-2019 NBA Thread

To think this series would be over if Toronto didn't build a brick wall in Game 2. They could have swept them. Nick Nurse has been coaching circles around Kerr.

Would be hilarious if Durant came back and dropped 50 leading the Warriors to an epic comeback where they end up winning on Toronto's home floor in game 7.

And then he gets Finals MVP after missing the first four games.

Durant is playing tonight.

Warriors record in the post season with out Durant is garbage.

Kerr-led Dubs pre-KD was 31-14 in the playoffs. I would say that's objectively not garbage. Or are you saying Dubs all-time pre-KD? Because that's really stupid if you are.

Even now their record is 6-3 (almost 7-3?) without Durant. Also not garbage. But if you want to say the Dubs record without Durant is garbage in the last two games I will agree with you.

yea lol Golden State were bonafide champions without KD.

KD simply tipped the scales further in their favor, a seemingly unfair advantage, which the basketball gods cruelly and passively manufactured with their loss to LeBron in 2016. Now KD has a chance to propel himself into the pantheon of all time greats, the mount rushmore of basketball if he wills the Warriors to a title after being down without him.

That's an oddly cherry-picked stat.

Well, I mean the team isn't literally the pre Durant team + KD. They did lose some depth when they got him.

how does a team that passes as well as GS trap themselves so often?

Congratz Toronto, GS it's been a great ride!

That was tough to watch.

It looked like he went to grab his achilles.

I mean it could be his calf, I dont know why they would lie. But it very well could be his achilles.

Also Shawn Livingston's head is gigantic.

either way it's tough to watch, the few minutes he played shows us all his greatness and what we're missing

Were the fans actually cheering the injury?

Yea fans were cheering when he went down.

The TV broadcast had cameras rolling as Durant walked back to the locker room and screamed FUCK which they tried to bleep unsuccessfully lol.
