BREAKING NEWS: The Phoenix Suns have traded for KEVIN DURANT

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Booker is the only guy who will get a ring in my personal record book if Phoenix wins it all this year.

This what I mean when I say some of these markets mess it up for themselves. Whenever teams and fans say that the NBA is a franchise where the rich get richer and the “little guy” never gets a shot, I gotta call cap on that. A the NBA franchise and GMs/Owners fukk things up for themselves. We seen LeBron leave Cleveland and head to Miami, and then head back to Cleveland when they got their shyt together and had a young core for LeBron to play with. Cleveland was able o handle Kyrie and win with him. We saw small market OKC fukk it up, and send future hall of famer James Harden to Houston, and never win a title with a Westbrook/KD backcourt. We seen a small market spurs team keep the train rolling and maximize every year Tim Duncan was there, and managed to get one more title before TD retired and before Kawhi hightailed out of there. The NBA is fair, teams just fukk it up for themselves and are poorly managed. Whether it’s GMs, lack of good training staff/load management, lack of any real accountability fitness culture, prideful owners, etc. Player freedom means that franchises have to do a better job at building. Owners can’t hide, GMs can’t hide. In the NFL fans have no problem blaming owners and GMs for their teams ineptitudes. But in the NBA, ppl wanna claim it’s uneven and unfair because of player freedom and empowerment. Lol.

Massive, massive, massive pressure on Phoenix to win it all now. They are #5 in a crowded West and immediately vault to contention, they weren't far off without him...

Their depth is going to be tested...

Suns and Clips have the most pressure and somehow Phx just took pressure off Denver who has a guy about to win a third straight MVP (likely)...

3 time mvp better make the fukkin conference finals at the very least fukk outta here

I’m dead ass. I think Claxton is better than Ayton. I wasn’t high on Phoenix at all before they got KD.

He ain't better than Ayton but Ayton is one of those guys where you don't want him knowing he's the best player on a team.

This guy is such a joke, never wants to compete and fight for championships only stacked teams with several all star/all nba players he wants, for all the stick lebron gets about stacking the deck, durant blows it out of comparison. He had a stacked squad in brooklyn and failed to deliver then hops on to the next stacked team where he can work with no pressure and blame

 

[steph_harden]

That nikka Billy King was without a doubt the worst GM in the history of the sport. That nikka should be a doing a 25 to life bid for what he did to AI's career. fukk that nikka

PG - Dinwiddie (17ppg on 40% from 3 shooting)
SG - Thomas (On a scoring tear and 42% from 3)
SF - Bridges (DPOY Candidate with 39% from 3)
PF - Johnson (46% from 3 on 5 attempts a game)
C - Claxton ( good interior defender)
6 - Curry (43% from 3)
7 - Simmons (trash, but still a decent defender)
8 - Finney-Smith (3 and D wing off the bench)
9 - Harris (mid but shooting 40% from 3)
10 - Crowder (decent defender off bench)

Am I nuts thinking that this is easily a top 5 team in the east? I think people underestimating the Nets, they about to surprise a lot of teams, and they already gotta 10 game over .500 head start

Plus they’re not done dealing, they will trade crowder and possibly Finney-Smith for additional pieces or picks, or use some picks to get off that awful Joe Harris contract. This is a promising trade for the Nets, it’s just overshadowed by their previous big 3 of Harden, Kyrie, and KD

NFL GMs are way more publicly visible than NBA GMs
Kyrie was begging the Nets for a fully guaranteed contract…The Nets declined…Kyrie requested a trade…Nets agreed while smearing him….KD gets upset and demands a trade

Btw, Woj been taking the Shams slander personal, he be upping the score on nikkas lately with the breaking Woj bombs

They posted @ the same time

 

[OnFleekTing]

KD never gonna get respect for his titles
CP3 might just have lost himself the GOAT PG title for good now

Booker don't gotta do anything but catch and shoot

Ayton still gonna get traded imo

fam its not
that many different players...none of them being of the superstar variety requires a training camp and chemistry to pull out consistent winning.

 

[Ukbrotha]

KD no excuses

That's not bad a team at all. The chemistry is my only concern
