Durant put himself in a situation where his play is meaningless, I don't care what numbers he puts up - it's just as irrelevant as guy putting monster numbers on a lottry team.

He'll never be considered in the same tier as the true great of this generation - LBJ, Wade, Kobe, Duncan - they all led their teams against equaliy stacked teams and won. KD will never, he quit on his own legacy.

BTW just like the NBA tried to break up our big 3 with the changes to the CBA, those **** should wake up and do something to prevent more epic bitch moves like Durant to GSW team that beat him.

I say give every franchise 1 player they're allowed to offer 50% of the cap to.

Enough with this BS "I only want to play with other max players next to me" soft ****.

Back in the day great players had to much pride to join the best, they wanted to beat the best. These days i can see Kwahi joining GSW too if they can create enough cap space.

1 super-max salary for each organization. If future Durants want to join already stacked teams - they can take huge ass discounte.

It really bothers me when people compare LeBron coming to the heat to KD going to gsw. The big three was accompanied by master Joel Anthony and rio.... KD went to a well oiled machine with an established bench and the two best shooters in the game. It’s an absurd argument, when the heat formed there was still a sense of mystery in how it would work from a basketball standpoint and then they lost to Dallas. The game 7 I just watched proved how unbearable this team is and the only thing I see changing that is fatigue from winning and playing more games

Good grief, when was the last time you posted my good fellow? Need a bit more consistency from you.

There are a lot of turds out there and they all have opinions. Wouldn't listen to the opinion of turds. They'll give you a fever that a cowbell won't cure.

We had 3 top 10-15 players, mystery was more like a given surprise, like pops getting you a Lambo for your quinceanera



Both KD and Bron set their goals for "...Not 1, Not 2"

KD was a luckier opportunist.

The imbalance in the NBA doesn't bother me. Lebron to the Rockets. Play on. ;-)

no, that's because he has no place in this convo. It's simple.

The last bit about KD is 100% correct. What a lucky bastard. He joined a team with the exact right pieces to make him part of the puzzle. Legendary, really.

As for us, we had two high usagers (Um, Wade and Bron if you needed a reminder) whose games didn't 100% assimilate. Highlight reel plays out of Rucker Park? Check! Spacing.....eh, not so much. Lovely though. Like a Picasso. Poor Bosh, a scintillating talent at that time in his own right became a glorified 15 foot jump shooter.....waste of talent.

What the Warriors have done is build a better big 3 (**** Draymond, really) whose games complement each other. Good for them. Lots of events went there way to make that happen. Spectacular really. We try so hard to hate on something, but what they've done is akin to a miracle. The timing of the events that had to take place, and the development of the pieces they had to add to their team all coming together at the right time. Wow, really. Crazy stuff.
