Sonic is definitely dropping his *** lmao

 

[tay1]

Because people don't want to see the NBA become a two team race?

Doesn't matter. It's a smart move for Durant and everybody knows it. Just because other teams can't make power moves don't mean ****.

 

[casper90403]

You won bro. Even I can't entertain your stupidity anymore

of course I did. You're a Knicks fan. Take your place.

You know better.

Can't knock him for a tweet 7 years back but man... what a crazy move.

Exactly, **** changes.

OKC was gonna be stuck exactly where they were. 2nd best team in the conference to GSW for the next few years. 2nd best doesn't get you anything.

OKC was going no where unless it was by some miracle.

This is a smart move by KD. Anybody who thinks otherwise is on their feelings and just salty.

Warriors were an inch away from getting beat by OKC tho.. If Westbrook didn't have ADD they would of been in the finals fam.

We gonna act like KD didn't play like absolute garbage.. game 6 in particular.

Don't let KD off the hook for his trash performance

 

[da hen]

Kobe, Shaquille, Karl and Gary. It doesn't always work out

I mean yeah the Warriors got exposed for a bit but they rebounded and dont have to deal with the thunder anymore

Can't really compare it though. Karl was done begin Karl, GP was well on his way.

 

[ill steelo]

The warriors essentially are going to have to fill the team now with vet minimum guys then let those same players go next summer.

Depth is important but we saw Miami make a run in 2011 with both Haslem & Miller injured. W/o those 2, players 4-12 were all on the vet min or 2nd round contracts like Chalmers.

It didn't work out that year, but that primarily fell on Bosh & Bron's pedestrian offensive efforts. This GSW team has more fire power & a better offensive system so I don't see most of their stars struggling all at once like that.

very minor concern IMO.

 

[Nike Still Sux]

Now he can go to Stephanie's barber

 

[OTG]

why

 

[romcadoo]

It's not even a reach. It's just flat out nonsense. Type of response that you just scroll past without even thinking about it.

It was in my draft for 10mins couldn't let that slide lol

 

[brendasdeadbaby]

Kobe, Shaquille, Karl and Gary. It doesn't always work out

Karl and Gary were washed by that time. Curry is the oldest of the 4 stars on this team at 28 years old

 

[LA Diggler]

:x The amount of illegal screens we're going to see

 

[Kaleo15]

The only thing that's different is the fact that KD was defeated by the dubs. They both essentially went to teams where they knew they'd have the best chance to win a championship. So pretty similar actually. Both are **** made moves. Lebron couldn't beat the Celtics so he joined two future hall of famers. KD couldn't beat the Dubs, so he joined forces with the MVP.

No just no

Miami wasnt coming off two straight finals appearances and 73 wins b. Stop

Dat Denial...

C'mon man, how quickly y'all forgot.... Don't y'all remember? Not 5, not 6, not 7

THEY KNEW they were gonna be a Super Team. They weren't assembled out of thin air.

They gathered all the pieces to make it to the Finals and win a Championship.

Their record in the previous season is irrelevant.

 

[casper90403]

The funny thing is the Mavs are now stuck with Barnes.

 

[shotsrangout]

Thunder need to trade Westbrook by the deadline. There's such a minuscule chance that he comes back that you might as well trade him for a few young pieces

 

[Bad Religion]

Trade him for Kevin Durant

But they won 2 out of 4, and it wasn't easy.

So depth is a concern. Plenty of dudes out there willing to sacrifice and be along for the ride. KD won't be the only soft dude to join GSW. More to follow in the next couple of days

I wonder if Chef Curry is going to cry like that baby Wade about never being the highest paid player on bis team
