Exactly tell me how I've flipped my positions. Really, I'm dying to read this one.

Just days ago you said you were surprised Toronto won the series but put a lot of the onus of the loss on Milwaukee and said GS would not have the issues that the Bucks had, now you are saying Toronto has a chance.
The point you make about Durant is accurate. He prefers to play ISO and it throws off the offense that GS runs best with. Not sure I'd go so far as to say Durant being back increases the chances of Toronto though because Durant has gone HAM and absolutely carried the team on poor shooting nights.
In that exact same post you reference I pretty much SAY THE EXACT SAME THINGS THAT I SAID IN THE POST WHERE I FLIP FLOP. Again, how am I changing my positions?
You like to talk about how a team has a chance before a series and then act like you knew all along they were gonna get beat when they lose. You have done it with the Rockets the last few seasons.
So I say a team has a chance at winning, in which they do, and somehow that makes me a flip flop? I don't ever remember saying who I wanted to win and if I go back and read my posts about the Rockets, I'll guarantee that before the series I stated that I didn't think they'd win. I only pointed out how I thought they might have a chance. Somehow that makes me a flip flop though. What would make me a flip flop would be saying, "I don't think the Raptors will win". Then when they do, I say, "See, I knew all along they would". I've never done that. As a matter of fact, I said I was wrong about thinking the Raptors would lose to the Bucks.
I don't think you understand what a flip flop is. I'm simply trying to drive conversation with basketball fans on this forum. I've never once changed a position and have always admitted when something I said I thought might happen didn't happen.
No, you push the narrative. You did admit the Bucks/Raptors, which fair play to you. You just tend to push the narrative and when the narrative you push doesn't come true you tend to try to backtrack. Maybe flip flop was too strong, but you could get a job shouting opinions next to Skip Bayless all day
Bold prediction - Warriors in 5 and Klay gets MVP.
Getting Finals MVP would give Klay a lot of leverage in contract talks. Idk if he wants to leave GS, but that would bode well for him if so.
I'd love to see Klay get Finals MVP. That would be amazing, but as of right now it looks like the Finals MVP will be Siakam. I know that won't last, but the amount of players that stepped up last night for Toronto was awesome to see. That's the only way they'll beat GS. Leonard can't be the only offensive threat on the floor. What was more impressive then the amount of players that stepped up offensively for Toronto, though, was their defense. It was amazing to watch and very consistent.
Now if you were to ask my honest opinion, I think GS lost GM 1 because of the long lay off they had from their last game to now. We'll see how it goes, but if the Toronto role players continue to play at this level then they have an excellent chance at winning.
