so you think Giannis would be interested in playing with a 32+ year old non-3pt-shooting small forward? and one-way players like Tyler Herro or Duncan Robinson (2-for-10 in the Finals so far, looking like a total scrub)

Our “best player” looked like a total scrub.

the player that ended up on All-NBA 2nd Team, that best player?!. Sure, buddy.

Forgot, raptors fans love regular season awards and don’t care about playoff performances.

It puts the 90s in perspective, the Utah Jazz had 6 rotation players that fit that criteria in back-to-back Finals. It really makes me look at Jordan in a different light.

John Stockton is an original dream teamer....Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson, well.......
Additionally, Karl Malone is an all-time great...Jimmy Butler is a 3rd tier player

media was hyping up herro like he was gonna be the difference :lol:

Forgot, some raptors "fans" have already forgotten 2018/2019.

If Heat actually won, then no, but I can see Giannis wanting to join a Heat team that came close to winning it all vs getting swept.

The NBA Finals MVP race between AD and LeBron?
After the 9 Qs, it is a tie now

TheAlchemist · Post #3529 » by **TheAlchemist** » Mon Oct 5, 2020 12:29 am

At this point I'd of rather seen the Celts, Bucks. Hell, I'd rather of seen Indiana lol.

Is Davis doing Lebron a solid by getting into foul trouble so Lebron can get the FMVP? What a teammate!

You really think anybody but the staunchest MJ fan/LeBron hater is voting for AD as finals MVP when LeBron is averaging a triple double?

Good luck with that.

I know you have been living in that LeBron-Bubble but after 2 games there was only one player that has dominated the games on both ends then you look at the numbers. Good luck with that.
AD 33.0ppg 63.7FG% 11.5rpg
LJ 29.0ppg 54.5FG% 11.0rpg

MJ would not lose a game to this heat team. :lol:

I can hear the headlines tomorrow.

Basketball_Jones · Post #3534 » by **Basketball_Jones** » Mon Oct 5, 2020 1:25 am

Butler really stepping up. Pairing him with a superstar like Demar this offseason would make the Heat a powerhouse I think

I like how you have purposely ignored assists in your statistical summary of the games (and have also ignored what has transpired tonight in game 3). I wonder why that could be.

Don't think the Lakers will lose a single game

Thank god Butler left Philadelphia. lol

Outside of the LeBronBubble: Whenever a player leads a NBA finals in Scoring, Rebounding and with a high-shooting percentage that player is the MVP of those finals. AD's foul trouble today will limit those numbers potentially making LeBron the front-runner at the end of the night.
