Bucks win game one in the East Conference Finals. First Conference Finals win since 2001.

Bucks vs Warriors in NBA Finals, hoping Bucks can be the team to be the Warriors.
 
Oh look. The Warriors were down both KD and Cousins and they still fucking swept the Blazers. It's almost like KD and Cousins don't even need to be there.

Yeah fucking right.

Don't feel bad @Dom McRaven . Warriors are just in another league even without KD and Cousins.

Call me after they sweep the Bucks

No way in hell are they sweeping either team in the East ESPECIALLY without KD. I completely forgot Cousins was even with them and quite frankly, do they even need him? Maybe off the bench, but not a starter.

I can see the Warriors sweeping the Raptors. That being said, Leonard is great and I don't think he goes down without a fight.

Zion Williamson was QUICKLY whisked out of the room after Pelicans were announced the winner of the draft lottery. Source said the former Duke star was rooting to go to New York, but now is going to New Orleans.

If you had a choice, New York or New Orleans. Everyone would say New York.

Sucks knowing that he is probably going to go to waste there just like AD.
 
I'm so torn. On one end, I want the Raptors to win it all because of Leonard and they have a dope fanbase (which basically invaded the Oracle if you saw the videos of them after the game). On the other? I want the Warriors to come back if this means KD finally leaves them for good.

KD won’t stay with the warriors. He will join the raptors on a discount.
 
I think if Leonard closes this series out that puts him above Steph and KD all time, and solidifies his status as one of the 15 greatest players in NBA history. This would be the second 3-peat that he busted, and the second finals MVP. Sure, he lacks the regular season MVPs that Curry and Durant have, but Curry was outshined that year vs. the cavs in the NBA finals, and Durant’s MVP amounted to nothing. Durant’s finals MVPs have been jokes, he took down two teams that stood no chance.

“But KD isn’t there”. The Warriors on paper are much better still even without him and have a better coach. The second best player for the raptors this series has been Siakam. Even though Klay and others have been banged up, Klay has been money this series and Looney isn’t big enough of an impact player to truly affect them. Cousins wasn’t much of a factor to their success anyways. Draymond has been Draymond. They’re just getting outplayed. Sure, injuries have made some impact and KD being here would’ve made it a different series, but most people including myself though the Warriors would still take this without him. Leonard has been a stud.

Toronto’s star, Lowry, has been trash, and the rest of the team is just a bunch of really good role players. Leonard has been elite on both sides of the floor this series and has outplayed Steph and Klay respectively.

Close the damn series out Leonard. Don’t go down as a choker
