Jay what is with this BTS hype? I see them trending all the time


Not sure. Some guys on the Raps board are pretty into it tho.

Personally, if I ever got into k-pop, I wouldn't be watching the dude groups smh.

So this is how y'all cope with the Hampton's Five domination? Korean boy bands?



I used to dabble a bit back in my heyday, but now I'm that washed dude liking songs on Soundcloud.

Is there a realistic chance of someone challenging the Warriors this year or the next? Who has to fall in the shower to prevent KD from winning more rings?

Hello NO

Honestly 2 of their big 4 need to be out with injuries for any teams to have a shot imo.. one isn't even enough.

at the moment, none of their big 4 is injured (Curry is "injured" whenever he shoots like Norris Cole :roll: ) and when they are healthy, they are fully capable of blowing the second best team in the league by a mile out of the building by 41 points. and said big 4 are all in the smack middle of their prime (28-30 yo).

you can't realistically expect them to physically regress for another 2 seasons at least, so bearing some bad juju injures they should be the favorite to win it all for the next 2. After that teams like Bos, Sixers and whomever up and coming teams with younger core might have a chance (or at least the gap will be closer) since GS core will be still relatively young but probably very tired from too much winning maybe BOOKI? and I don't care where 34 yo LeBron goes next szn GS will still be the favorite. I get that some people say "hey you can't have this defeatist attitude anything can happen GS is beatable" but they are really talking about injuries/bad luck it has nothing to do with talents or strategies because GS trump em all. they have the best talents by far, and they play damn good basketball as a team.

This is why KD joining em was ridiculous. but it is what it is. Enjoy the hunger games BOOKI



TL;DR: KD SNek Hello NO

I don't think it made any difference if GW repeated that szn chalms.

why would KD not go to GS and why would GS not recruit KD and sign Harrison flippin Barnes for the same price? :crazy: :crazy: for his pride and dignity? LMAO

sure KD would have gotten a little more flack for it had he joined the 2 peat-GW, but he got enough flack for it anyway wouldn't make much of a difference and the snek that he is, he knew it too. his legacy is forever tarnished as a competitor, but who cares he gets em rings, accolades, money and all that jazz. some consider leBron anti-competitive for joining Wade and Bosh, can't please em all chalms

KD would not have gone to Wizards or stayed in OKC and kept on losing to GS or LeBron at the end of the day u stupid pokemon boi

I like to think maybe Warriors would have maybe had some shame. Teams don't really make big changes after they win a championship to not mess with winning vibes.

I legit forget that Kd has a ring, it just feels so fake :noway:

Son, most non-GS fans are calling GS shameless, anti-competitive, cheat, weak, all kinds of names for what they did anyway.

details do not matter. they got the last laugh, and would have gotten the last laugh cuz they could. we (Heat) would have done the exact same thing prolly. now go back to your pokemon room and cry and go to sleep stupid boi
