I feel like the Warriors are gonna make a run at Chase Budinger

if that happens, its blouses for the league

Warriors add at worst a top 3 player to a team that won 73 games and has the reigning back to back, first ever unanimous MVP, along with two other All Stars, but signing Chase Budinger is what will put this team over the top?

David west : Ride coattails or die Trying

Not me, bruh. That $10M or whatever it was he gave up...not me.

 

[bronconation24]

As a Spurs fan I can tell y'all David west means nothing. Dude is done and is lost on the court these days. Tristan is still gon feast on these Warriors

Frustration with Westbrook Sent Durant Fleeing, Opens Door to Trouble for NBA

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...-durant-fleeing-opens-door-to-trouble-for-nba



Welp welp welp.

Damn it, damn it. I really didn't want it to come to that.

[QUOTE url="[URL]http://bleacherreport.com/nba[/URL]"]
Durant wanted an offense that kept the ball moving and provided him easier scoring chances. The Thunder fired coach Scott Brooks, brought in Billy Donovan, and still the offense stalled out at key moments, often with Westbrook dribbling into oblivion. The Thunder led the NBA in blown fourth-quarter leads last season, despite their firepower.

"Ultimately he got frustrated and felt that they had plateaued," said a person with insight into Durant's thought process. "[Donovan] came in, and he still had the same issues that he had with Russ under Scotty. The offense didn't change much. He still had to take a ton of contested shots every game; and that's when he had the ball at all. 

"He's never going to have a game in Golden State where Steve Kerr has to say at halftime, 'You guys need to get Kevin the ball,' which happened in OKC," the same person said. 

Man...

The thing is...no one is wrong here. I get why he's frustrated. But ****, I hate that it ended like this.

I'm not a cap expert, but can someone explain to me why Lebron opted out?  From the above, it looks like the Cavs only have 18M to resign him so didn't he just take a paycut for no reason?  He hasn't been there 3 years so they wouldn't have his bird rights.  I'm just trying to figure out the business side of what he did because it seems like he screwed himself out of money unless I am missing something here.

You earn "early bird rights" after 2 seasons.
