This ain't 2K breh. This is way bigger than saying "fukk it run it back". How many teams have you seen blow a 3-1 lead then come back and win a chip without making substantial changes? The better team wins, especially up 3-1. What's gonna stop them from having the same issues next year? Such a lack of focus and execution when you have a series won and you have only have one person that has ever won anything in their life is a huge deal and an indictment of the team as a whole. You just said you disagree with the coaching choice and he was right there while they choked. And the fact that they traded their entire future away for two dudes that can walk after this season can't be stressed enough. If they knew they had another 4 years of Kawhi and PG it would be one thing. If shyt doesn't go right next year and/or one or both of them feel any type of way this whole thing would have been for naught and you got no picks or young players.

You can't just blow up a core just because they lost the first year. Did Miami blow up their core because they lost that first year?

Is this situation comparable to Miami? Please list for me the squads that blew a 3-1 lead and then won a chip without making major changes.

Not really the same thing. Heat lost in the finals not the 2nd round so they were a lot closer. And probably more important than that, the top players were all friends and liked each other, doesn’t seem like that’s the case with the Clippers. And probably the most important thing is Heat have a stable management structure that had won a few years earlier so they were able to be patient

93 million miles above these devils
He and Brad had that :mjpls: Agreement when he signed

Then he fukked around and got injured :manny: such is life. Sometimes I feel like these players are advised badly or something because if he tries to agitate for a move it's down hill from here for him anyway. He's on a team where he gets to be a 17ppg 4th option. A team that has options like that will always be in with a shout of doing something big. No team that's even close to doing something productive is going to take him on and make him the main man at this stage. He better ride this out. That great white hope shyt is gone, it's Luka's league now. Hayward better fall in line or he'll end up just like his president :ufdup:.
