NBA season 2018/19

Great game!! Curry couldn't take the moment (tough shot though). Toronto to close this out by winning everything on the road. Well done.
Kawhi is the fucking man.
-
Interestingly Kawhi was pretty anonymous in that game. Was Van Vliet, Lowry and Siakam that ultimately won it for them.
Once Klay went down, it was amazing for the Warriors to get as close as they did.
Almost fair to say this series had no real losers. The Warriors would have won a few admirers from the way they hung in there.
But I was happy to see the Raptors win. They were the better team. Nice to have a new side with the trophy.
Now the REAL game begins... free agency!!!!
-
@barbarian free agency will either be awesome, or a complete fizzer. No middle ground
And i wonder what KD's injury has done to the FA period?
-
Awesome game. Game 6 Klay turned up. Lowry and Fred really stepped up. Iggy was aggressive offensively. Gasol and Ibaka were big in the boards.
The GS inbounds play was well set up but the inbounds pass was off the mark giving the Raptors defence time to set towards Steph to contest a tough 3.
So many moments in this one and in a high intensity game it’s hard to be critical of anyone. Although if DeMarcus could get half a foot off the ground he probably would’ve got that offensive rebound at the end.
Well deserved championship to the Raptors.

4-0 at Oracle this season.

In early breaking news, KD signs with the Raptors 😎

Draymond was the interesting one. Had a triple double, but also 8 turnovers. Missed his only two free throws, while Iggy was 1/5 from the line too despite a good shooting game.
But really there are no scapegoats, which is kind of nice. Good to see Lowry bounce back as well.

@barbarian Cousins 4 of 7 also.

Has anyone checked on Demar DeNoRing in San Antonio to see if he is ok?
Kyle did a shout out but I hear he’s just holding it together with his $139 million.....

Trade for Leonard has to be one of the great gambles in American sports history.

Ujiri, the GM showed massive cahones and he won big

Klay did his ACL. Fuck.
Warriors next year will be fascinating. Transition from superteam to underdog in less than a year.
They had so many miles on the clock over the last few years, and with bench depth dwindling, these guys broke down. So no Klay or KD to start next season. Maybe no Boogie either

But if KD goes then at least they will have a bit of cap room. Should be able to find a decent enough third wheel to support Curry and Draymond.
The problem comes when they have to rely on Livingston and Iguodala, who now have way too many miles on the clock.

Drake breaks the curse

Good analysis.

Nope. If KD leaves they will have no cap room Unless they pull off an impossible sign and trade.

Onions baby, onions.
(As Chuck Swirsky used to say. Maybe still does?.)
Rumours abound that Washington is offering Ujiri a contract for $10-million per season.
(Edit. Now hearing on ESPN that offer is $60-million for six years and a stake in ownership. Eye-popping if true.].
