Dudes talking about "what good is the ring without the respect though?"

You're king of the "bum ass message board nikkas" tho. You literally post more than anybody in this section.

The problem with your argument is that the justification for KD jumping on GS's bandwagon and ring chasing at 27, is that he needed the rings for respect. ":manny: blame all the fans/media who put so much importance on rings. KD didn't want to be treated like Barkely, Malone, Stockton, Reggie Miller and 'em. He wants to win". That's the argument that you hear in dude's defense. KD is someone who claims to be the best player in the league. How will he ever establish himself as the best player in th league after he's joined the team of the reigning back to back MVP? He can't. GS can win the ring with him having a relatively(for someone of his caliber) limited contribution. If this team puts it together correctly then somebody's going to have to fall back and take a lesser role and you would think that's going to be KD since he's the one jumping on the bandwagon after the team is already put together. If they mesh correctly and cruise to another finals and win the ring with KD being the second or third option, then how much respect will he deserve? It's hard to imagine KD getting that "best player in the league" respect on GS is what I'm saying.

I'm not understanding why you're so giddy. You hailed this team as one of the best ever before this move to get KD. They failed to live up to that this year and now that they've Gotten Durant the book is closed on that team. You've been proven wrong. That team won't go down as one of the best of all time. They had to go out and get KD:heh:

NBA is a business so teams are gonna be trying to constantly improve regardless of whether they win the chip or not. KD exercised his earned FA rights to go elsewhere and it is what it is

I don't know why people always bring up magic and bird when it comes to players leaving



Magic and bird won rings early in their career



They had it made

Revisionist history. They were drafted to teams with mchale and Parrish in the case of bird, and magic was drafted to a team with a 6 time MVP. There were never any bad times that would've made advantageous to leave in the first place, not to mention free agency didn't exist.
