Raptors 4-0 at oracle this year. Domination
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yep. Though, stats doesn't reveal much.
Still, fantastic achievement. I am actually very happy for the Raptors. The parade must be insane.
What will happen with Kawhii? Stay? Go - to where?
Lakers would be cool lol. But yeah...imagine he went golden state

They can't afford him and keep the roster intact.
I would still take a fit/firing KD over Kawhii - just!
Kawhii got outplayed by half his team for half of the series; his team were closing games out for him. He missed all FGs in the fourth quarter and was the 3rd highest scorer.
Still the finals MVP, don't get me wrong but some perspective.
He was the best player by far. Should have even wrapped it up in game 5 if not for a silly time out where kawhi scored 12 straight. Plus defensively he’s a beast.
Wouldn’t say he got outplayed by his team, he’s still what made them go. And looked like he was still carrying a knock a lot of the time.
As with anything you need help, even Lebron did.
Hey, not dumping on Kawhii. I have been on a Kawhii high for years ( top3-top 5 player currently). It was just not as a dominant finals performance as the narrative suggests.
The facts are there, the good, and not-so-good! He was the best player, no doubt. Toronto are a very very good team though. Kyle Lowry was a monster even.
Kwahi in the finals wasn’t as dominant as prior games leading up to finals. But he was by far the best player in the finals nonetheless. He was injured as well. Klay and KD will come back in time for next years conference finals but probably will be too late
I won't say 'by far' tbh - though he was the best overall. The last two games; I watched it in its entirety and Kawhii came up small, actually. He was probably knackered though.
Good series - if ruined a little by injuries.
Klay’s a tough sob, coming out to sink the free throws and running on a torn acl.

Straight from KOBE playbook (and a few others), If ultimately a stupid act of 'heroism'; probably made his injury worse.
Hmmm, AD to Lakers.
Lakers still need shooting though and filling up their roster.
Holy fk, Nets getting Durant, Irving & DeAndre Jordan
So Knicks thought they were getting Kryie and KD, now they are going to the Nets.
The meltdown is glorious.
Free Agency's has been maaaad so far
Kemba to Celtics, also Kanter.
KD, Kyrie, DeAndre to Nets
Pelicans have some very useful players
Warriors sign DLO on a max(mistake?)
PG and Kawhi to Clippers(title contenders now)
The L has to be taken by Knicks. And at this stage, even the Lakers, they look very light.
Westbrook will be on the move too
PG13 and Kawhi to Clips is a big move
Tbf lakers can now go and get players around them.
Lebron
AD
Kuzma
Rondo
Cousins
Danny Green
Javale Mcgee
Not sure how many salary cap left but they got Caldwell pope and quinn cook who are average but can give minutes

? Very very good summer for Lakers, I make them favs, they’ve got Lebron & AD, and a whole lot of strong depth and good player like Kuzma Green Rondo and if they get that Igbala
Apart from the 5/6, Lakers don't have much depth though? Or is it just me hating Lakers. I don't make them favourites at all.

Very true
Next year will be a very interesting watch tbh, best the NBA will have been for years
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwtffffffffffffffffffffffffff i've just seen that.
Literally wtf.
How are harden and russ gonna work in same team
Be interesting to see them link up again. Not sure how it will worth though lol.
Next season about to be craaazzzy, so many duos
AD/LeBron
KD/Kyrie(maybe year after)
Russ/Harden
PG13/Kawhi
Not forgetting
Klay/Steph(year after)
Who would you have in a 2 v 2?
I'd have AD/Lebron every single time.
Harden and Russel Westbrook is a joke. There is only one ball.
CP3 to OKC
Lakers are have the best duo and it's not close IMO but other teams have better team chemistry. Plus, Lakers have no wing players. If DMC goes back to 90% of his peak, then it is over.
