Maybe next year we will get the first clutch performance out of:

 

Harden or Paul or D’Antoni

 

Sometimes being petty can come back and bite you. Paul is a ferocious competitor. But that doesn't mean that you have to lack a sense of sportsmanship and respect towards your opponent.

  Paul is a douche. Good riddance, not a fan of Chris Paul, James Harden or the Rockets style of play.

  Golden State plays more like a team and led the league in assists, Rockets 28th. Good team play much more entertaining imo.

Golden State plays a more entertaining brand of ball without KD. I'm not saying that they are better without him but there is better ball movement and better play from the backups when he is not in the lineup.

I agree wholeheartedly. Klay really stepped up and the bench was a big factor. Not a fan of the isolation game.

In a nutshell why KD won't be back.  He's their best player but it'll never be his team nor city.

What a game, what a shot.  Sixers could have, maybe should have, won that game but they are still young and learning and they played against maybe the second best all- around player(behind durant) in the NBA in Kawhai.  Hopefully the Sixers sign Harris and Jimmy Buckets and continue to "Trust The Process"

Kawhi! Shot of the year? What a game.  Congrats to Raptors. Also Kevin Harlan on the broadcast continues to be the best in the business.

Either Ben Simmons grows a pair and starts to shoot or the process is a huge fail.

Kawhi Leonard is one bad mofo.    

 

The spurs should shoot whoever pissed him off.  

His injury last year was so strange.  You think him and Popovich were a great match given Leonard's reserved personality and I don't think Leonard is the player he is today without Popovich's tutalege.  Maybe they'll be a 30 for 30 on why the relationship went south someday.

I’m not so sure he should start to shoot. I think it would be better if he first learned to shoot. 

 

I’m worried how committed he is if he still can’t shoot a lick.

Are they gonna trade for Siakam ? 

 

Or just activate the Durantula ? 

I haven’t watched as much as I usually do so your guess is as good as mine. I figuered last nights game would show that the Raptors could win and then GS takes over the series. 

 

I don’t think Durant will be a factor a strained calf is a big deal. If he comes back I’d bet good money that he pops it again.
