Because they're going to a larger lineup with him on the floor (because of injuries) and the Raptors have small guards and Siakam also struggles against bigs in the paint. It's a catch 22 for the Warriors... they prefer the small ball lineup but that's also the lineup the Raptors prefer

Raptors lack the ability to put Boogie in the blender on the pick and roll.

I couldn’t believe Lowry couldn’t get by him. Boogies as zero lateral quickness, but Raptors don’t have any guards that can abuse him.

For a minute they were exploiting it, but an adjustment was made.

Lowry is kind of pathetic man...and how are you a guard fouling out in 27 minutes?! that rarely happens :smh:

Man media already set the narrative from the blazers series to give it to Dray...

Curry ganers so much attention Nurse literally made the Raps play a box and 1 just to get the ball out of currys hands... That’s some MVP level attention Curry is getting because of his presence but the Media dead set on not giving it to Curry... Shit is fucked up, same clowns cost Klay 30 mill not voting him to an all NBa team

They had no reason to go box and one.

That’s the dumbest shit I’ve seen from a coach at a finals game.

He need to cut that taking charges shit out of his game until the 4th quarter. None of that matters in the first and 2nd quarter. All he doing is getting himself into foul trouble, which causes them to lose an additional ball handler. And then fouling out at that.

Shit is real pathetic.

He basically told Drake keep that same energy.. don’t yap when your up and be quiet when the losses mount lmaoo

Called Drake a bum ass lmaoo
I’m not mad at that. I’ll be glad when they lose and they shut him up permanently. I just want GS to have that same energy when they down or it’s really in the balance. That’s why I respect Dray .. he’s the same no matter what. He was the only one talking walking off from game 1

The Media hates Green man. Steph is a media darling. Are you watching the games ? Green is making them go. Green made plays down the stretch ... Steph didn’t even score. Iggy and cook hit the much need buckets.

This is their 5th run and Skip Baylee’s the number 1 Steph lover even said that 3 in the Portland series was the first clutch playoff bucket he’s hit.

It’s not hate that he hasn’t won any Finals MVP he didn’t deserve any of them and of these first 2 games he’s not their MVP.

I watched the games.. it’s clear you don’t seeing the amount of defensive attention Curry getting.. For a coach to go box and 1 they are scared to death of curry having the rock in his hands.. Thats Jordan level type of defensive attention.. Gravity as they call it.. That’s MVP status and if you don’t see that then you either don’t know anything about basketball or you just a straight out hater..

Thanks Paul. Raptors got this.



When they were talking about Quinn Cook hitting shots I mentioned this before. The Warriors has a system where they tell the players I don’t care who you are if have a open shot or feel you can take your defender then you have the green light to take the shot. None of their role players hesitate when they get the ball I think “should I shoot it or not”, even that big white guy was jacking up shots without hesitation. If you’ve watched the Raptors and familiar with Norman Powell, he comes off the bench but will take any shot like he is the star player, all of the Warriors players have that same mentality and it’s the reason at the end Andre Iguadgoga shot that shot with so much confidence

You know...

I always felt the Kings did him DIRTY

I really don;t know how MUCH he worth.

Maybe so, but Boogie wasn’t easy to work with either.

I don’t know what he could do for a franchise as far as winning. As long as he has reduced responsibility like he does on the Warriors, he’s better off that way.

I definitely wouldn’t pay over 100 mill for him. If that much...

I think losing a finals being up 3-1 is more than enough humble pie...

Dray will always be the shit talking.. Curry and Klay don’t really have too their games prove that..

Considering his stats from last year's Finals he could have gotten it then. At the end of the day the "ring" is the only thing that matters. He's already in the conversation for best shooter EVER. Not bad for a 6'2" dude playing among giants.

All that shit you say about Curry doesn't even matter. But fact is he's in position for 4 rings! And counting! Fact is he will go down as the greatest shooter the NBA has ever seen, EVER!! fact is he will be considered top 5 pg ever. Hes already considered that right now. So all that finals mvp shit that you and other dumb posters like to bring up means absolutely nothing. Everything that GS is is because of steph, period

I can't wait for him to win Finals MVP just to end this stupid ass conversation.

It's just unfathomable that any serious person inflates the importance of an award for one series like it means that much. Like Steph's value is lessened by who sportswriters felt had the best numbers in last year's four game sweep. Like Andre was more responsible for the first title than Steph. I think it's dishonest bullshit not even worth engaging on.

I heard the SPORTS MEDIA pushing that Finals MVP bullshit the other day and the people at home running with it. It’s stupid because just like the NBA All Team selection it’s picked by people who don’t even play basketball; THEY gave it to Iggy in the first championship knowing good and well it should have gone to Steph. The only people who are gonna run with that “oh he doesn’t have a Finals MVP” are those looking for something to take away from his legacy. Teams designing their whole defense to stop him and he is still scoring but they gonna say he is coming up small

Nah, Kyle needs to keep doing what he’s doing.

:giggle:

What “Energy” can you have when your team loses? :lol:

All Drake can do is talk trash like Draymond did to him when the Warriors lost.

You know...

I always felt the Kings did him DIRTY

I really don;t know how MUCH he worth.

Why would the Kings give him the max? They didn’t make the playoffs with him so a 200 million dollars investment would be foolish.

I watched the games.. it’s clear you don’t seeing the amount of defensive attention Curry getting.. For a coach to go box and 1 they are scared to death of curry having the rock in his hands.. Thats Jordan level type of defensive attention.. Gravity as they call it.. That’s MVP status and if you don’t see that then you either don’t know anything about basketball or you just a straight out hater..

We all know Steph is an MVP caliber player, he just hasn’t played like it throughout the Finals. :dunno:

Regarding the defense played on him, he’s the most dangerous player on the court whether he’s doing good or bad so they play defense on him like it.

Klay carries the Warriors in the first half last night, the Raptors were scared Steph was gonna get hot. If he hits two shots the momentum changes and it’s a wrap. Which is what happened in the 3rd quarter.

We all know what Steph “Can Do”, he just hasn’t done it consistently in the Finals.

He’s not getting a max contract, so I hope he doesn’t expect that to happen.

He’s not worth the max so it’s no point giving it to him. I felt that way when he was in Sacramento. It’s nothing personal, it’s just few players are worth the max.

I'm fine with the charges shit...it's the dumb shit he does reaching in trying to strip the ball especially after he's got 4 fouls. He's just gotta make better decisions. I hope he reviews his fouls and sees how silly they were and make the adjustments. If you're going to foul any one, foul Curry not Boogie after he grabs a defensive rebound.
