Why? You respect him more than Steph? Steph doesn’t play hard? Please explain.

Not going to get into much detail... been discussed everywhere since durant signed there, but yes, more respect than steph. I respected steph at one time, not anymore.
I like to see competitive guys. Steph may play the 'right way', but here is a guy who tries to recruit durant after his team goes 73 - 9?! To me, he, nor any of his teammates, are competitors.
I could go on... but that is where my opinion stems from.

I mean if you have a chance to add a top 2 player in the league to your team I think it's hard to say "nah we don't want you mf"

Kyrie For Three wrote:Confession.

I don't really care if Lebron wins the east, I am used to it and we have injury excuses anyway. Without Irving, the big dream of playing the Cavs is gone.

When Lebron plows over Toronto, I get secret pleasure anyway.

And if Lebron is out, I fear the Sixers might sneak in and to me all year all this Philly love is wayyyyy worse. (in more then one sport.)

And I don't care about the Pacers much, like I don't care about the Colts. A half dead Andrew Luck is at the game tonight in the crowd and Indy fans still say we pop balls and deflate and cheat and whatever garbage.

LeBron's rule over the East with Cleveland is coming to an end. When he eventually retires, you guys will reminisce about the tough battles, some won, some lost.

But make no mistake about it - if Philly becomes a contender things will be MUUUUUCH worse with their fan-base, especially if they win the East. Cavs fans are pretty mild compared to how others would be. It's why I'm content with the Knicks remaining a bad team.

They chanted "We want Brady" at a Sixers game before the Super Bowl.

They should have chanted "We want the Patriots defense."

First, closes out the Bucks.
Then, smash the overrated Sixers.

I agree we need to finish the current series first lol. It's been a tough one and it's not over until someone wins 4.

I wish I had more optimism on beating the Sixers, but homecourt might help us some. Philly looks lit though lately.

Of course they do. Who wouldn't want a team that is missing its two best players?

Not sure Philly is ready for this.
