That's Durant's fault, not Golden State's, but either way your assertion makes no sense. Spurs? Spurs played boring basketball - low scoring games. The last team I remember that was fun to watch was the Lakers (Lakers-Kings, Lakers-Blazers were amazing series). Not the Warriors fault (or KD's) that a few things worked for them - KD was a FA, cap went up, Warriors had cap room, Curry/Klay/Green were on great contracts. Regardless, I don't see this core team staying together after 2019/2020 - Klay/Green/KD become FAs. Because of the Warriors (even without KD), teams are now focusing on small ball lineups.. and letting their Centers shoot 3s!! Perhaps. the NBA should have a hard cap like football Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I post, you always quote my posts. Like I said, we get it, you don’t like Lebron. You value Hero ball. Why are you here trying to argue with me. Yes both Kobe and Jordan won 11 titles. But as the debate has been all this week which you either agree or disagree, Jordan needed Rodman to win the last 3, Kobe needed Shaq the first 3 hence the reason why Shaq won the finals MVP’s. 6 years later, Kobe wins again because his team of Smush & Kwame Brown wasn’t winning crap.

And LeBron needed Kyrie and Love. He chased Kyrie away. Chased Isiah Thomas away. Tried his damndest to chase Love away. The big dummy has no one to blame for himself for yet another playoff failure. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Did he ask the new GM to trade away, Crowder, Wade, Rose & Shumpert? Which team do you think would of did better? That team or this team with a Clarkson, Hood, Hill & Nance? Minus Lebron, do you see a Hill, Clarkson, Smith, Love, Nance team making the playoffs with the bench consisting of Thompson & Hood making the playoffs? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They were playing like a** in the month preceding that and had one of the worst defenses in the league. Don't play dumb with me, it won't do you any favors. They needed to make an effort to create a title contender, because Lebron was leaving without one and leaving them with a long rebuild. We both know it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We both know it. You said I’m serious danger, so I’m arguing that remark. Nobody has answered my question. Would you rather have Wade, Shumpert, Crowder and IT2 or Hill, Hood, Clarkson & Nance. That’s all I’m asking. At least Wade and IT2 could create for themselves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
