A40: LOL! If you lot think you are going to see a better version of fury than the one that fought wilder you lot are tripping. You forget the man has literally never fought anyone credible until he fought that old man and took his belt. That clout he has is based solely off of that. I can easily claim that fury looked in better shape vs wilder than Wladmir, many people clearly didnt watch that fight. Fury literally stunk up the place on his way to a decision win. One of the most boring fights i have ever watched. Theres a reason he ran away and is fighting someone ranked in the 80s. |

Why did the Bucks pay this wasteman Eric Bledsoe again? |
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 2:23am On May 18, 2019 |
The Raptors are really struggling with transition basketball on both ends. Siakam looks overwhelmed. |

Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 2:25am On May 18, 2019 |
The depth of the Bucks is scarrrrryyy. Ilyasova is torching these guys. Ilyaphuckinsova |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 2:26am On May 18, 2019 |
steady986:Please Bledsoe is a bum. If the Bucks relied on Bledsoe they would be in Cancun by now |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 2:27am On May 18, 2019 |
Yes, they have got depth, probably why everyone thinks they will win it all. A40: |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 2:30am On May 18, 2019 |
Man the Raptors might as well go to Canada by halftime |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 2:33am On May 18, 2019 |
benji93: Who is this everyone? I'd like to have a word with him. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 2:33am On May 18, 2019 |
benji93:The Bucks have a lot of guys that do things that don't show up on the box score. Especially Ilyasova and Connaughton. These guys weren't even bench worthy guys for a playoff team this time last year. Its a miracle what these guys are doing thus far |

Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 2:35am On May 18, 2019 |
The Raptors have done a good job on Giannis but Nick Nurse has to figure out his offense, this is too blunt and lacks bite. A lot of guys with "poverty numbers" for the Raptors. They just look deflated and pitiful. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 2:39am On May 18, 2019 |
benji93: Just stop it! |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 2:41am On May 18, 2019 |
They are not shooting well. The only way you can match length is to get them running around like chickens. The raptors seem to match them length for length though, they are just shooting terribly. Roland17: |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 2:54am On May 18, 2019 |
I hope Mirotic and co are done with their shooting now, so the raptors can claw back into the game. |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 2:56am On May 18, 2019 |
Bledsoe was relieved he got his first field goal |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 2:57am On May 18, 2019 |
Man, Kawhi's midrange game is legit |
Re: The NBA Begins by Kophschmerzen: 2:58am On May 18, 2019 |
This is definately bucks in 5. This game might be a blow out. |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 3:00am On May 18, 2019 |
You never know, they might just run out of gas. Kophschmerzen: |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 3:02am On May 18, 2019 |
The Raptors might just be able to cut it down to a single digit in this quarter. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:03am On May 18, 2019 |
KarnThornheart:That's because most of Wilder's opponents were the who is who of bums. Including the notorious British scam known as Fraudley Harrison. Styles make fights but based on what I've seen so far there is nothing that suggests Breazeale wouldn't go at least 6. That's par for the course for any half decent fighter that had faced Wilder Of course, nothing wrong in barely surviving one of the longest reigning Champions in boxing history. After all rumor has it Wilder was dropped twice in sparring by Wlad KarnThornheart:We can only judge based on the first fight we all saw. I was pulling for a Wilder win but prior to that last round Knockdown Wilder was heading towards an L and that's the bitter truth I'm not disputing that Fury is obviously ducking a rematch KarnThornheart:It's not about MMA it's about you slightly overrating Wilder's power overall. You have and are merely relying on speculation! Unless you have some device that has measured their power then you can't say for sure. Perhaps we can deploy MMA style to settle this once and for all. At least among heavyweights we know Ngannou is the heaviest hitter. We should apply to boxing as well Their margins are so fine and their fighting style has to be considered as well as you alluded KarnThornheart:My point is AJ's devastating combos are likelier to end a fighter than just one hit. That's why when they fought the same fighter AJ was able to end things quicker Why was Molina not able to take the punches Breazeale took? Why did Wilder take so long to put out Molina and even got wobbled. Why did Molina get up from not one but 3 Wilder knockdowns? Yet didn't survive AJ |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:11am On May 18, 2019 |
Kawhi. One Man MOPOL These refs are making some funny calls though. Middleton didn't touch him there |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 3:11am On May 18, 2019 |
We can do this raptors, 2:51 to go in the 3rd quarter. |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 3:20am On May 18, 2019 |
They give Giannis too many cheap fouls, it's annoying |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 3:22am On May 18, 2019 |
Common, Giannis bumped into Ibaka, and they still called a foul on him. |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 3:39am On May 18, 2019 |
Kawhi working hard to get them back in this game. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:50am On May 18, 2019 |
Time to put a fork in this one. The Raptors are going to forever rue not stealing Game 1 |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:55am On May 18, 2019 |
I think the demoralizing thing for the Raptors is that watching this game you feel like the Bucks could reach an even higher gear. Thus far they are almost +180. In 11 games |
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 4:01am On May 18, 2019 |
2 down against the Bucks spells doom for the Raptors. They will have to come out with a lot of intensity and use the noise from their home arena to play with purpose. A lot is on coach Nurse now because they are not taking high percentage shots and more importantly, the P&R combinations with Kawhi have not been successful. Nurse has to find a way to control the tempo and pace of this game else, it will be another blow out win. |

Roland17:Kawhi's numbers look efficient from afar but if you look at how hard he had to work for each bucket compared to Giannis, the difference is quite clear. With Bledsoe, Brogdon and Giannis Milwaukee has 3 guys that pass and facilitate at a high level 1 Like |
