Originally posted by 58_VONDOOM_92 View PostGood thing the Cavs got their championship cause that might have been the last one for atleast 3 years. Just give the trophy to the Warriors now.
So the Warriors are losing Barnes, Bogut, Ezeli for sure. Possibly Speights? Doesn't change the Cavs approach offensively much. No rim protection. Warriors become a lot harder to defend, though. No Harrison Barnes out there jacking up bricks and turning the ball over off the dribble. Now you have to deal with Durant. Pretty hard to stop that.

Originally posted by Spice 1 View PostMarc Spears on SportsCenter talking about LeBron did the same exact thing. lol.
LeBron didn't join the league MVP, two other all stars, and "coach of the year" coming off of an NBA record 73 wins. It's actually not even close.
And what I fear is GS winning it all next year and then Westbrook and Melo and LeBron deciding to take their talents somewhere and trying to win one together next summer.

Originally posted by Bronco51 View PostIt's the same. One of the best players who didn't feel he could win where he was, goes to a contending team to get rings. I hate this trend. And Wade and Bosh were all stars weren't they?

If by same, you mean LeBron was an all star who went to a team with multiple all stars, then yes. It would be the same thing. But don't forget to throw in Dennis Rodman, Karl Malone, Gary Payton, Moses Malone, LaMarcus Aldridge, Wilt Chamberlain, etc. etc. while you're at it. Seriously.

Originally posted by Spice 1 View PostIt's not the same dude. Bosh didn't play for the Heat the previous year, and the Heat won 47 games. Not 73. Spoelstra was an unproven coach, and there was no 4th guy. Who was the 4th guy? Mario Chalmers?

KD is gonna become the most disliked player in the NBA. I'm curious how he will handle that, when he is already a sensitive guy, whom has never had majority of the fan base be against him.
I think him signing with the Warriors is a copout and hypocritical. KD on record said superstars shouldn't play with each other but play against each other.
What if he pulls a DeAndre Jordan and change his mind? He isn't a Warrior until he signs the dotted line Thursday.sigpic

Originally posted by Bronco51 View PostBosh was going to the Heat and LeBron knew it. It was no secret. Come on now. He was going to a team that he knew he was going to have a better shot at a title. It's the same principle, no matter how you want to spin it.

Edit: they might be able to sign a player at the veterans minimum, but I doubt Wade would go for that....Last edited by ELWAY421; 07-04-2016, 11:40 AM.
