Mad? I don't have a single thing to worry about right now. I'm chilling while waiting for my team to play in the NBA Finals tonight. Couldn't be in a better mood to be honest. You're just making yourself look bad, if anything i'm sad for you. You must have it tough, hopefully things turn out better for you soon and you don't have to worry about trying to troll on the internet anonymously anymore. Good luck man.

I'm not trolling anyone buddy, you tried to troll me and I came back at you. Then you wrote an essay about how you weren't bothered at all or something and I responded with two words to end things. But here you are, still quoting me.

Man i'm sorry you got so offended I forgot a capital letter. Must be tough getting upset so easy. Easier to do it online than in real life where someone might slap you for it though.

Lets get this thread back on track already.

I’m going to have to see it to believe it. That said, the timeline is right for his injury to be just getting better right now. Doesn’t have to be a conspiracy. I imagine he’ll be a defensive liability as I assume it’s still not 100%. If he hits his first few shots though, you never know. I don’t place as much emphasis on the break and fitness as others here. It’s a factor, and he’s not playing 41 minutes, but I don’t think his cardio will be the issue. His calf/Achilles will be. Or he’s just off. Shooters hit shot. That doesn’t leave when they’re retired, let alone sitting for a month. Plus, sitting a month after playing all year, and not spending the month on vacation, is way different than the off season. There’s no substitute for playing, but there’s ways to work around that injury and stay in shape even with a bad wheel with upper body work, single leg work, pool work. It just depends how hard he rehabbed and motivated to get back he was.

You're the kind of guy who wants to troll people but blow a gasket when somebody gives you a taste of your own medicine. Remember, you started it, and if you don't want a response next time keep it to yourself, idiot.

Cut out the personal attacks and nonstop trolling

KD walked by the media this morning and we all got quiet. His aura felt like he’s playing. KD left media largely speechless. He dominated the press in every way.

SSB KK X20 will not be enough for KD to beat the Raptors tonight. It's Ultra Instinct or bust.

I don't care you responded at all, i'm also not mad so I hardly blew a gasket. You're just trying to make yourself feel better about something. All i said was this isn't grade school because you made a childish remark. Hardly blowing a gasket but hey you entitled to your own opinion. I'm gonna just go ahead and bow out of this nonsense now since its not going anywhere.

Marcus said all 150 media members were quiet and basically like when he walked by. As in, yep, I’m THAT guy and tonight is mine. Tyson, Jordan, Jackson type vibes.

I’m suddenly so, so hype for this game tonight.

Michael?

I really hope KD plays. He is going to be rusty as hell and yet the pathetic / desperate GSW will look to him to save them; Kawhi is going to swallow him up and it will be painfully obvious KD won't impact anything. That psychological letdown will be the final blow to the Warriors; I predict a Raps blowout.

"Go off tonight" SMH

problem is, even if kawhi locks him down, that opens up the floor for curry/klay.

as a raps fan i must say, this is most scared i've been all series. we can't slip up tonight, bc then we head to oracle with a further rested kd and iggy and on the road, the warriors knowing they only need to win 1 game to force a game 7.

we NEED to close it out tonight or it could get dicey

PhilBlackson · Post #111 » by **PhilBlackson** » Mon Jun 10, 2019 8:28 pm

While I'm not buying this whole "aura" bit lol

Of course KD will carry himself like he's ready to go off. He's been chomping at the bit to get back out there and there is no greater opportunity than this for him to "validate" his decision to join the Warriors by "proving" that they needed him to win.

It's also the confidence he has to exude to lift his team's spirits up and give them belief they're going to pull off the comeback....

It's why idc what overly confident/excited fellow Rap poster says...its a big deal because at absolute worst this at least helps fuel their energy and belief for a Warriors team that was already going to come in with everything they got. You can bet KD is looking to try n blowout the Raps to send a message, so Raps better be ready to try n match energy and not let the storm get too outta hand because their intentions will be to send a huge message.

It's going to take a Herculean effort by the Raps to close this out tonight. Everybody absolutely must be locked in.

Not a big KD fan but if he can come in and lead GS back to a championship from being down 3-1 that would be legendary. I'll definitely be watching tonight.

This would make the 2019 playoffs a little less boring—but imagine concocting a story based on someone’s “aura” and how “people were quiet”.... lmao wow. I guess you have to work with what you’ve got in terms of story-telling.

KD is a mythical being, not just a regular human. Put some respeck on his name.

Lmao! These Takes are absolutely embarassing! KD hasnt played in OVER a month, is 60-70% at best and he's "going to go off" against the best defense in the playoffs??? who happen to be focused and dialed in and peaking at the right time?? FOH!

Mike Anyone. Originally a line from Notorious B.I.G.'s verse on "Victory"

Excellence is my presence, never tense
Never hesitant, leave a n**** bent, real quick
Real sick, brawl nights, I perform like Mike Anyone
Tyson, Jordan, Jackson
Action, pack guns, ridiculous

Watch on YouTube

Jay-Z also bit it on "N***** in Paris"

Ball so hard, this s*** weird
We ain't even 'pose to be here
Ball so hard, since we here
It's only right that we be fair
Psycho, I'm liable, to be go, Michael
Take your pick, Jackson, Tyson, Jordan, Game 6

So much overreaction in this thread in both directions. Sigh.

I think it is great he's playing. Should give us a more exciting game. My team has been playing quite poorly. Will be good to see Durant just give it whatever he's got. If we lose, Toronto has earned this start to finish of the series. If we win, then things just get more interesting and exciting. I'd really like our odds for a game 6 at home with a full squad, and game 7 in Toronto would be pretty epic at that point.

hoop_head · Post #119 » by **hoop_head** » Mon Jun 10, 2019 9:04 pm

Not hoping against KD at all, his health is his living and right now GS could use even a semi-productive KD. This imo is just fluffy feel-good talk, and most helps get casual American viewers to tune in. The narrative flips from "GS is tired and Raps are locked-in, meh" to "oh wow KD might play tonight and save GS, I'm watching that!".

Reading your stuff just makes everyone of us dumb.

Why because I don't go along with the circle jerk that Colin Cowherd is a doofus, or because I called the guy out on his **** grammar when he was trying to make a joke about me being in grade school? Here let me change to a Raptors flair and say how done the Warriors are tonight, will that make this into your safe space again?

Good lord my mental faculties just went on vacation for a second trying to take that diatribe seriously.
