This seems kind of bad for the NBA.

All the legit stars are going to be on a handful of teams.
So many games are going to be blowouts.

Ya'll too emotional. At the end of the day it's still 5-on-5, you bring your best team and I bring mine and we see wsup.

Real ball players know... when you playing pick up games do you say, "Let me NOT pick the best players in the gym so the game can be competitive?" Or do you pick the 4 best guys in the gym and try to stay on the court all day?

Exactly.

When you go to play in a city tournament, do you NOT try and pick the best players from your area to kill everything?

Exactly.

Now magnify that x1,000,000 where you're playing basketball at the highest level and getting paid top dollar to do it.

Eat KD.

Fam ...hoop always comes down to matchups and who has what advantage. Bogut made that happen for GS, not because he was so talented or athletic, but because he was an efficient big. He gave confidence to GS to shoot whatever cause he cleaned the glass and blocked shots on the other end.

KD and GS front office wants to be the headline too much instead of actually moving to win realistically. On paper it looks great and everyone will ooh and ahh because of the names...but nah. KD has always I been thin and weak...that's exactly what GS doesn't need more of. Klay can shoot at league leading level ...KD isn't needed...:yeshrug:....Greene is the muscle now...a guy who like to pop out for threes most of the time. This is a "talk about us" move...not a smart basketball move. Just like the lakers did trying to pull in Malone and GP...it was for attention and lime light...but failed because it had no basketball foundation beneath it.

What superstar in history joined a finals runner up the next year...it may have happened, but it's plainly weak as fukk:manny:

Sports always has a way of working it self out (call it the conspiracy theorist in me), but it never fails with these stacked teams having to deal with injuries especially in basketball.

Look at how stacked the heat team looked with Lebron. After the first year Wade constantly had issue with his knee. Add to the fact Bosh got hurt in the playoffs their first championship run.

I wouldn't be surprised if curry or klay is injuried a lot during Durant's time their.

Also I know the league loves this because villains basically been carrying the league the last 6 years. Hell you can say 9 years. Cause folks were hating on Kobe during his three year (from 2008 to 2010) run talking about the Colorado incident and chasing away Shaq.

Durrant welcome to the hall of black villains......come on down. Vick, Cam, Lebron and tiger will meet you at the front door and assign you a seat.

They just became exponentially worse than they were last year with addition of kevin durant.

They last thing golden state needed is a ball dominate, volume shooter, with shaky handles, who is VERY turnover prone, and not good defensively.

Durant brings NOTHING to the table that golden state needs, and their offense will be one big clusterf**k now.

I guarantee you Golden State won't be in the finals.

Golden State and Kevin Durant just made the biggest mistakes of their career and franchises.

Also this only means less shots for both Klay and Curry who are both MUCH better shooters than Durant.

Golden State really had no chance of making the finals without Durant, but now they have ZERO.

This just means Lebron will win his 4th championship next year and he will probably face the Spurs or a healthy Clippers team in finals.

Depending on who OKC picks up to replace Durant, they will also beat Golden state in a 7 game series.

I liken this to the Dwight Howard to Lakers trade. While it looks good on paper to the casual basketball fan, which most of you are, in reality it will be a disaster. One of the worse major trades ever

How is it the dark ages when great ages in the NBA always had super teams, except your precious early 00s :mjpls:



And.....what happens if Bron beats them? :wow:


1. The 2000s were the GOAT....Pistons, Dirk, Kobe, Duncan all getting titles the right way :banderas:

2. Only way Lebron seeing a title is if the league rigs it again with another suspension and injury
