Yeah, man, I'm a basketball junkie and I'll probably stop watching the majority of games. Would be a true waste of time.

If he goes to Warriors i hope media, NBA fans destroy him and Cavs sends him crying to bed without a title.

Agree with you there.

I mean he hears the noise, the backlash on potentially going there. If that's who he truly is, then he deserves the ill will coming his way.

Either way it looks like we are in the top 3.

It sucks tho, we threw everything at KD. What more can you ask of the Celtics? Maybe Ainge going all in and trading the BK picks to get someone to attract KD even more. Please not the Warriors KD.

Lebron didn't join a b2b champion.

Assuming he does go to GS, he will still be ridiculed as he should be. He is still joining a team that has been to the finals two years in a row while winning one. A team that clearly doesn't need his help to win a title.

Bogut, Barnes and one of Ezeli or Livingston.

Can do it just by dumping Bogut and renouncing Barnes and Ezeli.

Maybe we should take Bogut as our consolation prize if we don't get him lol. If not us, somebody else will.

If KD chooses Boston, don't be shocked if Presti wants his revenge and is willing to trade Westbrook to Boston for a reasonable price. OKC without KD obviously needs to rebuild.

Not only winning one, but they had a 3-1 lead in year two of the Fianls before the Green suspension, and people were quick to claim it was over and were already proclaiming them the greatest team of all-time.

So that's what makes it even worse...

For real though...........the Warriors will be hated more around the country than the Patriots if that's even possible. I'll always consider Curry a 1 ring wonder and I'll never give Durant credit for any rings. The NBA will be unwatchable IMO. You already know the end result.

It really would be. It's bad enough we have the cavs in the east, imagine having to beat the warriors in the finals as well? The finals will literally be golden state vs Cleveland for what, the next 5 years?

You meant to say GS initially, right?

I would love Westbrook. I know many on this forum hate him though.

You are right that he will still be ridiculed. That is for sure but it will be comparable to perhaps the Lebron ridicule and not something 10 times worse with not enough upside and tons of downside.

Imagine GSW with KD losing the title next year after winning the two previous titles with him. He would be the laughingstalk of the entire league.

That possibility went out the window when GSW lost this year and Cavs got a lot of deserved hype by winning it.

If he is not seriously considering Boston, why hasn't he told them yet ? What's the holdup ?
