2024 NBA Season

[Finestream]

I hope Cleveland can sweep this weak Toronto Raptors team. I think if that will happen it will be history, correct me if I am wrong I just really love how the Cleveland Cavaliers played recently, they area almost unbeatable with the way the showcase.

Remember that it is the same team that go to the finals last season and they are not fully healthy that time, Irving was not healthy and love is out after the series with boston. If they can sweep raptors I will bet on them to win in the NBA finals. This is revenge and Lebron with company is getting another ring baby.

Really a "weak" Raptors team? They able to clinched the second seed of the East, destroyed the powerhouse team Indiana Pacers and the crowd favorite Miami Heat and also reached the Eastern Conference finals still you called that a weak? Cleveland Cavaliers will definitely win the series but if you are really into basketball you can't say that Raptors is a weak team. It's just that CAVS is much dominating than the Raptors and that is obvious.

Oh yeah! that is just my opinion anyway, I said they are a weak team against King James team, they are good with other rivals but we know man who is the only legit team in the east and I will say it over and over again it is only the CAVS. This is not an exciting series to watch as you can really tell that they are dominated at all ends of the floor.

I understand that you are a Toronto Raptors fan and you should react that way, the way I reacted because your team just beat my team's best friend wade. You know what, I heard them talking, bron will break some bones of lowry or derozan for wade. Just kidding Man. Cool off.

Yeah! that should be the idea, and if you are backing with the OKC just take the series line after the game tomorrow as they will probably loss the game 99% most of the time. This league is partly rigged so they will do everything to extend the series for ratings and of course money. I can see that this is going to go to long series because the east series is a boring game. They failed to bring up the Miami against the Cavs that is why the NBA is at lost now on the projected income.

i hope they will and that they will play all seven games in this
also think that if OCT won and got 2-0 lead then they have big advantage and they will use that

Look like you are new to this thread. My fave team since then is Mavs and I posted that in this thread I think a thousand times lol but unfortunately they've been knockout by the monster OKC and that is expected.

I just want to change some others thought here about Raptors thinking that this team really can't be considered as a tough team in the league. In previous post here back in semifinals, someone stated that Miami Heat is too much for the Raptors. But what happen? CAVS will be eastern conference winner but it doesn't mean that Raptors is a weak team.

Don't just watch and start to become an analyst if you are just watching NBA during Playoffs.

Yes Toronto is not a weak team, they didn't get the 2nd seed in the East if it wasn't for their talent.

[harizen]

Oklahoma City Thunders @ Golden State Warriors = OKC + 8.5 @ 1.86

I see a bounce back ballgame here for the GSW because they will truly not allow a 2 game loss in their beloved Oracle home but the final score I think will be a close one. Remember that in first game Westbrook only got his monster stats at the second half. If he will able to do some nice production the whole game at Game 2, it will be a close game match until the end resulting for covering the spread.

I'm cheering for Toronto, but I really don't think any of these games will be close if JV doesn't return soon. 

Without an inside presence beyond Biyombo, we're exposed.  If we try to limit the perimeter, they just drive it in.  If we cheat on the inside, we get exploited by the 3 point specialists on the Cavs. 

Not a great match up at all for Toronto.

He is a big factor but Im sure CAVS exactly know how to cover the hole even he's on the floor. If we see their recent game, most CAVS able to control all the spots- perimeter, outsides and the most important, the paint. Also some of CAVS players can do multiple roles to that three spots either it's of offense and defense and the best example for that is Lebron James.

This will really be a tough game for the Raptors. I think Raptors can do some regular ISO's inside or in perimeter (no penetration) especially for DeRozan but it will just be effective if CAVS won't always do some help defense. It's the same in Kevin Durant's plays in the remaining minutes of their previous game on GSW last Game 1 but unfortunately he just shoot at 0/5 fgs in his 5 consecutive shots but it's effective since he uses his height. Thoughts?

I also bet here sir I personally think that gsw will play big in game 2 they will not let the fans disappointed and this handicap can be covered we just needed to see clay and steph to play big I know they will do their best. good luck gsw fans.

Toronto's play-off experience is nothing against LeBron James and Cleveland Cavaliers. I read somewhere Lebron have over 120 games in play-off but Toronto's all team have around 20 games. Their lack of experience is a sign that they have no chance in this final serie.

Yes, saw those ISOs on Durant but he missed them. Durant has length though which DeRozan has not so it will be manageable for Shumpert to defend DeRozan on ISO.

Well DeRozan is 2 inches much taller than Shum so he can managed it but it will only become effective if there's no help defense from the CAVS. But that is just only an option since all spots are fully controlled by the CAVS especially the paint which is the key for offense and defense. CAVS really a quiet perfect and healthy team that fit to NBA finals.

warriors cant go down 2-0 at home?

Well noone on earth expected for Warriors to lose in that first game but it still happened, now for second game it's sounds even more impossible for them to lose again, but who knows, maybe playing OKC would be sharp thing to do instead

There isn't likely to be  sweep in both series as Toronto will be so Warriors will win tonight.
Just can't believe the amount of points Cavs scored last night. That was unreal.

[ingiltere]

Before the first game I said OKC Thunder has a chance of getting 1 of 2 away games in Golden State. Now they won first game I expect Warriors to win this game. They (and NBA organisation) won't let this serie to go 0-2, so it's an easy choice for me. I don't know about handicaps, I'll play straight money line bet.

[Karpeles]

Oklahoma city thunders won two games in a row at San Antonio Spurs'  home, and SAS was as good as the Warriors at home. They may very well have another win today. Odds are attractive for the try(with a small amount)

That a bit risky , GSW haven't lose two times in a row at home this season
Of course , you might win your bet , but I think the chance are really small
Losing two times at home are not really GSW style , they will fight back...

I believe a 2-0 in favor of OKC would be really risky too, but hey, they knocked out the Spurs, and they still have the momentum going on, so IMO it's worth it to go for that risk. 

[West man]

I really believe that the raptors will get knocked out of these semi finals with a sweep the way that the cavaliers played yesterday showed that.
They were blown out of the game early on!
