You can only win one game at a time. I told you before game 4 that he would play in an elimination game. That's perfectly fine, yet doesn't make my statement any less true. The Raptors are on too good of a roll right now and are firing on all cylinders. And Durant can't just play, he has to play well and be a force to pull this comeback off. His presence on the court alone will help, but this isn't just game two of the series, it is game 5 with the team down 3-1. He's going to be rusty and will have the best defender in the league guarding him.. No pressure KD, no pressure lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RavensTillIDie Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I know Kawhi has this shroud of mystery surrounding him and no one has a clue as to his motivations, but you're a damn fool if you think this man doesn't feel some type of way about what happened 2 years ago when he last faced the Warriors lol. He is on a mission and he will not be stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell him to be a help defender/rim protector on defense and keep him out of the pick and roll/switching/guarding smaller players on the outside. He just needs to shoot the ball well in this scenario to get us over the hump. Calling it right now, Durant for finals MVP lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calling it right now, Durant for finals MVP lol That's being disrespectful to the Raptors to think that's all it will take for the Warriors to win three straight. And be a rim protector? I mean that sounds good and dandy, but how much lift will he have with his calf injury? He's going to have to be a big factor to pull this off. The Raptors are too good and too disciplined for Durant to just be a spot up shooter and think that's all it will take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying it's one game at a time Having him be the rim protector/help defender will limit the amount of lateral movement he will need to make. I don't want him switching onto small players on the perimeter. Let him occupy the paint and use his length. KD wont need to jump that high if he knows when to jump and how to use his hands. Then on offense he just needs to be able to shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For one, we have to see his conditioning and if he can handle the finals game speed. That's going to be very difficult for him tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
