Right -- I'm not putting them in the Finals, just saying they have an outside shot now vs. 0 without AD. I think most would agree, though, that considering the sad developments with GSW in the past...

AD to LA

Anthony Davis has been traded to the Lakers for Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and picks. But they were able to retain Kuzma, which gives the team three proven scorers and an excellent chance to win the...

Hi RF,

I think you mentioned your own recovery from a sports-related injury, so I'm sure you can to relate to some of what KD is going through right now. Gotta be rough.

Don't have quite the same level of interest in this series after watching KD blow out his Achilles the other night. Amazed that GSW medical staff gave him the green light to play -- guessing a suit...

Achilles

I was sidetracked after the game, but just wanted to add, for those who don't follow hoops, that if the MRI reveals KD's injury to be a complete rupture of the achilles, which seems likely, he has...

P.S.

Thinking KD's contribution on D may be more important (and probably more reliable) than his shooting tonight. E.g. he's the only GSW big with the athleticism to hang with Siakem -- will be...

Durant had a short practice with the bench guys yesterday and a longer one with the full team today, without any apparent problems. so looking good. Supposedly, his eligibility to play is a game time...

You could absolutely see the pain, but even in his limited state, he was much more effective than the pitiable Cousins, who just wasn't ready, and the aged Bogut. Looney was actually tied with DG...

I agree with you that 'asterisk' is the wrong word in this situation because it seems to try to deligitimize a championship which the winning team deserves -- however, that meme is absolutely out...

Wish I could say this has been a great series, but another blow-out -- unfortunately not. But seems more questionable whether GSW had a clear edge even with a 100% Durant -- would have been...

Reading that Looney has been cleared to play tonight -- should make for a better game, if true.

Not sure about the spread, but I think GSW, with their backs to the wall, at home and with Klay back, take this -- so would go with -220 moneyline. Think that 3 pt. variance aptly noted by Valuist...

After today's announcement, sure looks that way --- for once Charles Barkley was right about something. Will be happy to see Kawhi and Raps win it, but sorry to see the value of the Finals destroyed...

Klay?

Some interest returning to this series, due to injuries to Looney and Klay, with Nate now effectively putting the series price at -110, while the Vegas line is -280, and the line for Game 3 has moved...

Sayonara

Raptors all but threw away a shot at their first championship with a loss to a beaten up version of GSW at home in Game 2. Many stupid mistakes (of the kind the GSW rarely makes) by Lowry and Siakem,...

Agree with your basic point that Durant won't be in 100% condition upon return, although there are cardio options like the upper body ergometer (hand bike) and working out with a heavy bag while the...

Yes, that's what it sounds like. I'm getting the feeling that he'll at least be back by Game 5, though his condition will still be a mystery. Hearing some insiders say they don't think he'll play at...

Generally agree with V.'s take on Game 1 -- think this is the Raps game to lose, so I'd give the point -- if they can't beat the Durant-less GSW off a long layoff at home, they're in serious trouble...

I think you're right about Van Vleet likely reverting to the mean, but I also think the 180 reversal we've seen in this series is mainly attributable to Kawhi's increased coverage on Giannis in Games...

Kawhi outplaying Giannis

Amazing turnaround in this series by Toronto, thanks to Kawhi, as usual, but also to a born-again Raptor bench, especially Fred Van Vleet. To make amends for calling this series for the Bucks, I...

Yes

My DIY emoji probably didn't convey the tongue-in-cheek nature of that line. He has no veto-power over trades, although, as with Kawhi and PG, the team was making a (supposedly) good-faith effort to...

I'd say Bucks in six, but wouldn't necessarily bet it. I do think the series price of Bucks -280 that I'm generally finding, seems like a safe bet.
