How do you miss 27 consecutive threes? Nets don't even do that.

This post may not age well...the Nets having a "here, hold my beer" moment in this regards isn't that far fetched :lol:

The Brooklyn Nets don't even miss 27 consecutive threes in a Western Conference Final. Unless the Nets move and still call themselves the Brooklyn Nets, this post will age well. Take that!

i get durant is great and thats how you win but its a sin against basketball that the warirors went from poetry in motion on offense to durant iso jacking shots(efficiently) every possesions as All time great shooters/passers sit and watch

I honestly don't think I'll watch a Finals game. I'm so tired of this matchup.

Remember when a certain poster said we should’ve hired Colangelo over Sean Marks and called him the KD of GMs?

he even defended his bigass collars from his burner account

When user @Philly_Asshole commented on the executive’s well-documented sartorial preference, “This dude just love collars,” Enoughunkownsources responded, “That is a normal collar. Move on, find a new slant.”

And who was the poster who became a Sixers fan?

I totally agree

What makes Warriors special is not that they are dominant but that they were a touch of crazy magical

I still blame it on NBA forcing Draymond to sit out Game 5 when he was clearly their best player that series and Curry was hurt. .and they lost that series . Durant never goes there otherwise

I don’t care I you hate Draymond that was an astonishingly bad call by League

if it was a 1-off or even second or third offense id agree with you. but draymond has punched like a dozen dudes in the dick. they had to do something.

warriors also lost game 7 at home not scoring in the last 4 minutes. they also lost game 5 up 3-1 at home.

I agree with everything you're saying BUT not only was Draymond long overdue, but he did something against the NBA's cash cow. Suspending Draymond created a new storyline and ultimately extended the series. I don't think that the league is rigged, but if they do something that allows them to hide behind rule technicalities as well as benefit their bottom line, they're always going to take it. Draymond should've been suspended in the WCF and cost the Warriors the series against the Thunder. They let him off the hook and took the opportunity to punish him at a more convenient time.

clear charge. not even remotely close to being a block. lebron beat him to the spot, outside the restricted area. he slid yes but beat him to the spot.

and thats just 1 of 9 or 10 awful calls/not calls against cleveland in crucial times. this was rigged. plain and simple
