Honestly this, you can't just put big names together anymore and just win. The league is just too talented, and if you're not stacking up wins in the regular season to get good seeding, it's anything goes from there. Suns owner saw big names and thought it was gonna help them win immediately, getting Beal was always gonna be a bad move.I think people are just unreasonably about their expectations in the current “parity era”
It’s HARRD to construct a legit good roster that can compete in todays modern NBA, and when you do that window is incredibly short
The only one who has sustained success in the past 3-4 years has been the Celtics
KD isn’t the problem. Just like in LA, or Milwaukee, or the Warriors, or the Heat, the roster isn’t good enough
Which terrible roster did Larry Bird drag to the finals?Like I say almost every week on here
I better not see KD above Bird on no list
Exactly you bum ass nikkas ran him out.. thanks for admitting he was correct in leaving GS but wrong in everything else lmaooKD has made every single wrong move since leaving GS
Suns owner came in like the former Brooklyn nets Russian owner lmaooKD ain't the problem. It's a shiit roster. Deal isn't and never was a superstar or even "great". Neither is Booker. Booker is better than Beal though.
You’re one of the stupidest basketball posters on this board. Like if I was going to say this is what a dikkriding and doesn’t understand basketball fan is and what NBA discourse is ass - I would just point to your account. This nikka created fanfiction about nikkas begging Harden - fukk outta here. Harden asked KD to come to Houston when he left OKC. He’s been wanted to play with KD and Harden is a better playmaker than 99 percent of players in NBA history and yet he has never been able to be a go to guy in big moments like KD. The idea that Harden with his playoff failures is on the same tier is something that would get you kicked out of most NBA debate rooms.It adds up
That's why real ones knew what it was on golden state.
There's a reason Kd and Kyrie called for Harden to join them in Brooklyn
KD doesn't have the overall offensive playmaking to lead an offense like that.
That's why keeps on making the same decisions he does
They had no choice but to make a trade - the only other option was cutting Chris Paul with no other moves.They never needed Beal and now are stuck with him as he has a NTC
Let them trade him for Butler....still won't win shyt
Luka took their soul and ended that franchise

Yup. That roster was great for KD only if they kept Bridges. There was a reason James Jones refused to do it. And now dude is selling tickets and concessions at discounts.Suns owner came in like the former Brooklyn nets Russian owner lmaoo
Set that franchise back decades

Realistically, Kyrie ruined KD’s career and somehow ended up in a better team situation but no one speaks on it. I would hate that dude forever if I was Durant.
KD made that golden state team better and became the best player on that team when he was there , everybody was eating on that golden state especially when kd was there , stop the capYep. GSW was Steph’s team. BKN was Harden’s team. Hell, even OKC was Russ’ team if we being real. KD is the ultimate closer, but he’s not leading a team.
And now you basically have two #2s trying to win in PHX. KD, Kyrie, Book.. all these games are in the same category. They need a real #1 to play off of.
Beal been useless for 5+ years now...never liked his gameThey never needed Beal and now are stuck with him as he has a NTC
Let them trade him for Butler....still won't win shyt
