Xtra- jfc man
1) I said Siakam is not a “star”. I clarified what I meant by star, listed some players, all that Jazz. Several games were played in the playoffs (where things matter) and Siakam was underwhelming. I know he’s beloved in Canada and he’s ascending, but he’s just not there yet. Yes, small sample size lol. But Luka didn’t need a large one. Neither did Donovan. Or Jamal. Etc. see where I’m going?
2) I was saying it was amusing you thought the Raptors had a chance to compete for a title (win 4 games in any universe vs a West Squad). I do believe Boston, Miami, and admittedly Milwaukee could do it.
3) Boston > Toronto. Miami > Toronto. Milwaukee > Toronto. Lakers > Toronto. Clippers > Toronto.
No, the result of one series doesn’t prove that. The way the Raptors played, they would have, deservedly, been a massive underdog to one, of the West teams in a series. It doesn’t matter that much what happened in the regular season (yes the raptors went 2/2 vs the lakers and 0/2 vs the Clippers). In the playoffs stars, and especially superstars, matter. No, that does not mean an East Team can’t pull it off, but imo the two East teams left have more firepower to pull off than the Raps (because they both have stars).
No, I do not care lol, my sole priority is poker atm but I do get a kick outta people not giving credit where it’s due itt. Excuses, excuses, and then more excuses. Haha, w/e man.
