Man game 7s...damn. Have to drink more than usual tonight haha. It’s just if the spurs win they have a legit chance to make it to the WCF. I don’t want them to blow this opportunity. They just need to play with energy and heart and they will be fine.

[Keepin' it real]

Huge chance for some DDR redemption for past playoff failures. Will he come through???

[BillMc]

Spurs by 6

[Spurch]

I sure hope kawhi leaves the raptors because damn they’re gonna be good for a long time if he stays lol call me crazy but pascal siakam has some Greek freak in him

Nephew should surprise the league and return home to the Spurs, your he has some giannis in him.

[Spurch]

Kawhi is balling right now, unstoppable.

[cutewizard]

Kawhi with 41 points

[Nathan89]

Trading the best player in the NBA for Demar Derozan.

He damn well better!!

[cutewizard]

Giannis is the ruler of the game of thrones, lol

[Genovaswitness]

I hope kawhi gets 50. PATFO getting cucked on the trade

paying DePression 30 million dollars

[Nathan89]

If Tim Duncan forced a trade they would've traded for Jermaine O'neal and threw in Bruce Bowen for good measure.

[cutewizard]

That would be Giannis vs Durant, no debate

So you smart guy think you could do better? Who do you think you would have gotten? I am interesting in hearing it.

Head Coach Michael Malone said if he has to tonight, he will play Nikola Jokic 48 minutes.

“What am I saving him for?”

[cutewizard]

I smell this for Coach Bud lol

[Nathan89]

Durant plays with the best shooters to ever exist. One of which is probably a greater focus for defenses than himself. I'm not giving him the moniker of best player in the game.

His career dumbass. I have a bad feeling this is the end this season. Good run considering everything.

I am hopeful for that
It would be a good story

Couldn't be worse than a 30yo midrange playoff choker tbh

Yeah, because it was the best deal San Antonio got offered. Even the lakers only wanted to trade one young player. Sometimes it is easy to talk, but the Spurs were in an awful situation. Getting an Allstar back is the best you can do.

[cutewizard]

Lamarcus should pour on 40 tonite too

If the Spurs have a chance

would've at least gone for siakim. salary dumping kawhi would've been a better move than getting DePression. 30 million dollar albatross. playstyle that didn't win championships in the 00s that is horrendously out of place in the 2020s

Nice point, what about Giannis?

[RD2191]

No way Demar doesn't lay an egg tonight, especially after Kawhi dropping 45 against the Sixers.

[Genovaswitness]

one thing is for sure and I am happy about it--lebron is no longer the best player in the league
