You dumb as hell if you think Klay isn't going to make that money up one way or another staying in GS.

If you talking NBA contract money, sure they can pay him the most Supermax or not

But off the court nah, especially if he went New York or LA
 
Eh, I was willing to go up to 3/1 but 4/1 is pushing it. Too much value for you. Let you know if I change my mind. Do think the Raps finish it at Scotiabank.

I mean, 3-1 is even more value for you. All things considered, I think 4-1 is fair since 5D is offering +375.

Since you're contemplating hitting that +375 before G6, any concern Milwaukee takes the next two?

I thought about it and can't really see it happening even if the Bucks manage to force a G7.
 
Kawhi is the 2nd best player in the world. It’s KD, Kawhi, Curry, and everyone else follows.

Bron is on the back end of his career so, I can’t include him.

IMO to be a top 5 player, your game literally has to have no flaws. My top 3? Their flaws aren’t even a part of their skillset.

Steph’s flaw? Size
Kawhi? Health/injury history
Durant? Insecurity/personality

These 3 guys have no SKILL flaws :pimp::pimp::pimp::pimp:

(For the record, Kawhi is my favorite player. I’m a Spurs fan but wherever he goes, I’m on bandwagoning, idgaf)

Not the next two. I think the Raps blow them out tomorrow. Just don't want to rush and pull the trigger too early just in case I have a change of heart. But as of right now, I'll be taking that bet tomorrow.

Intangibles HAVE to be part of how you rate players. Doesnt matter how skilled and talented you are if u have a mentality that shrinks under pressure thats a major flaw. MJ and kobe for all the talent they had their biggest strengths no question was their killer instinct and work ethic

Lebron was labeled the best player For 10-15 years......... he shrunk under pressure 80% of the time and was a beta. Left a pressurized situation in Cleveland to get help, like a chump (same as KD) but that doesn’t take away from their elite skills as players.

AI, Melo, etc are some of the most confident, headstrong, alpha males you’d ever come across... BUT, their games had flaws. What does that classify them as?

Intangibles don’t matter when you’re skills are superior. Some guys are just more special than others.

Lol thats just blatantly false. Was lebron shrinking when he single handedly took gs to 6 games without kyrie and k love? Or when the dubs gave up a 3-1 lead? Was he shrinking when he swept the raptors outta the playoffs? Was he shrinking when he single handedly took a cavs team where the second best player was zydrunas ilgauskas to the finals? And did i say that intangibles were the only measure of greatness? No you need to factor everything in

Why’d he leave Cleveland? I’ll wait. Blame Cleveland’s front office for giving him
Mo Williams or Delonte West in the backcourt. Big Z made a couple all-star teams though.

Bron done folded numerous times in the playoffs.
Bron is an all-timer but he’s just as much of a beta male as KD. Nothing wrong with that. He’s still an all-time great.

This man really shook his head when Kawhi re-entered a game. That’s all I needed to know about Bron. Lebron is scared of competition.

This man sucked his teeth and shook his head at another grown man
 
Shrinking



it's called having a bad game. everyone has them from time to time. and you guys really trying to make me defend lebron when all i was doing was pointing out the flaw in dude's argument implying that intagibles dont matter in measuring greatness
 
@BIG LEEMELONE geno90221 geno90221 y’all been here before? I drive by it to/from work every single day and finally pulled up. Place got line going out the door. Supposed to be fire :lol
