HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted July 4, 2016 Sam Presti is in a really tough spot now. Curious if he seeks to trade Westbrook. Lakers have the best package Have to give credit to Presti though, did you see the statement he just wrote about Durant? Really took the high road. Came off 100 times more professional than Gilbert did in Cleveland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BravoJulietEcho 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2016 Calling Durant a coward is hilarious. He's a free agent and had freedom to choose his new team for whatever reason he pleases. Everyone just loves to jump on this kind of stuff out of jealousy but let's be real, the Warriors might be worse off. There is only one ball and they will lose bench players because of this. It's not game over for the league yet. I totally agree. Miami in 2010 had the same problem. Remember, they lost to DAL in the finals that year. Only one ball for Wade, James, and Bosh. And to get all three to sign there, they had to mortgage the rest of the team, leaving them with no depth at all. The same thing might happen with GS this year. Don't crown them just yet.

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted July 4, 2016 I still don't get it. Look back at the 80s or 90s, you won't have seen a prime MJ or Olajuwon go to i. e. Boston simply to win a title. Pro players back in the days used to have competitiveness not to do this kind ob BS. Well, you physically couldn't go to another team until 1988 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pro players back in the days used to have competitiveness not to do this kind ob BS. That's what I'm saying. But I think AAU basketball has a lot to do with it. I played when I was younger, it's all about just trying to make a super team. It's the culture from early on now. This is just how the NBA is now. The 80's & 90's were for sure a completely different era. NBA athletes, as a whole, have become relatively unlikable to me (as far as the stars go). You don't see this in the NFL or NHL. MLB is different because of the cap, or lack there of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted July 4, 2016 Yeah, with prime Peyton Manning. Exactly. I'm talking about prime NFL & NHL stars. Where did Stamkos just re-sign? Kane? Towes? In the NFL, how often does a star quarterback in their prime leave their team to go to a better one? Please tell me. Rodgers? Brees? Rivers? Luck? Ben? Wilson? Newton? Brady? How often do those guys leave to form a super team? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrjr1229 9 Report post Posted July 4, 2016 GWS problem was Curry himself, he couldn't drive to the basket and was playing hero ball like KD, i blame that on Kerr though not making the adjustment, now having two hero ball players won't solve their problems, they still lack of penetration and size... they have no one on their team that can do legit dribble penetration like payton KD, curry all prefer to play hero ball and shoot fadaway midcourt 3s Draymon can only drive against bigger guys Igudala only in transition Barbosa too old Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
