Rich2Hassan · Post #1 » by **Rich2Hassan** » Mon Jul 4, 2016 4:37 pm

Now that Durant has started the NBA apocalypse by joining GSW. We have Some serious questions to ask.

-Where do we go from here?
-what type of contract for Wade?
-do we go after GodBrook?
-do we trade Dragic?
-Has Riley's Midas touch worn off?
-Will Spo stop making that constipated facial expression?

Stay tuned. Buckle up. Things are about to get interesting.

That wasn't a cryptic tweet. He's right. Relationships are important. He wasn't recruiting KD. They're not friends. Hell they've had beef in the past. There was nothing to be had down here. If Riley wanted to really go whale hunting, he would have set up the roster like he did in 2010. But no group of free agents really stand out.

Why does the Don, the Godfather, the Man need Wade to have a relationship with the person he's recruiting? Especially when Wade himself hasn't even been offered a contract by the Don, the Godfather, the Man? Isn't that his job and the job of the people actually on the payroll?

Don't come at me with this ****...

I didn't say it was Wade's job. But if he wanted Kevin to join us down here, he (and bosh, lol) would have been trying to recruit him for months like gsw did. He did it with JJ because he's friends with JJ. He took a Rose approach about kd. Kd is not a friend. We have nothing to offer. I don't blame him.

What evidence do you have that he was not doing so during the season? All we know is that he didn't come to the meeting we had with KD yesterday because he's not under contract with us, didn't even get a decent offer from us, and absolutely had no reason to.

Too many heat fans sound like the rest of the league's fans when Bronee joined us.

Sort it out.

So who would you guys root for in a Cavs/Warriors rematch? I'm taking the Cavs, sorry for those still mad at LeBron. Seeing Lil B's curse live on even if he lifted it would be worth it.

If you start that train, I'll gladly join it. And before this narrative starts, knock it off with "it's same was when LBJ joined us". KD joining an already stacked team that should be back-to-back champs now. LeBron joined a roster that had one player under contract, his name was 'Rio.

I don't think we'll see Cavs vs Warriors next year. Cavs have to sign JR Smith back and make some roster improvements, or else it will be a similar season like we had in the 2006-2007 season, in which we brought all the guys back.

So far they've lost Jefferson who was big in the Finals, Dellevadova, Mozgov who was a nonfactor, and they might lose JR Smith if some team offers him 12-15 million per, which according to the market that should be his value.

They were fortunate for Draymond's suspension and even more fortunate Bogut's injury. Had Bogut not got injured, the series would have been different, Draymond was a better player with Bogut.

Basically 3 games was played without Bogut/Draymond together.
