KD is too soft man. A grown man giving a eff about what niggas on social media that eat cereal for breakfast, lunch and dinner say is beyond me, especially with his talents.

No self respecting elite level player would derive any joy playing with a megalomaniac like LeNomad. You could win titles and never get your due credit no matter how much you contributed because LeNomad would still take all the glory.

I hope Kawhi does not make that mistake. If he leads Toronto or the Clippers to another chip we might be discussing not LeNomad but Kawhi and KAJ as the runner up to MJ'S GOAT status
Lol. You make me laugh. It's funny how you place the contribution of winning a title above actually winning the title, and yet you say KD has two titles.
And as for KAJ being runner up for GOAT status, sorry bro, he can't achieve that anymore, unless of course he decides to come back to play a few more seasons. Lol. Perhaps you even meant to say KAT rather than KAJ.

Beverly used the lakers as leverage. SMH!

At this point i am 100% sure. Kawhi is a laker!

I feel for KD though. He for just close and forget these haters cos they're the same people wanting Kawhi on the Lakers. You can't cheat nature. He has been a nice guy from the onset.
I think there's more than meets the eye to this move something beneath the surface. I don't want to believe KD can be naïve enough to believe the people who hated him for the Warriors move are suddenly going to respect him for leaving. That would be tragic!

He should have known his perception was forever going to change since he left and made his peace with it.

Unless the Warriors were not ready to pay him I don't see the use in leaving so much on the table just to play with the Nets.

I have never understood it. Like a whole Kevin Durant responding to Jimmy from Instagram. I know these guys are not robots but you're KD why should you even give a shyte

What is your point? I said Bronsexuals typically go out of their way to belittle the contributions of his teammates, where is the lie in that? Did LeNomad himself not buttress this by claiming to be the phony GOAT despite Kyrie averaging 30ppg in their comeback victory?

Of course KD has two titles. You're not Adam Silver that stripped him of his rings last I checked.

What does LeNomad have on KAJ apart from Finals MVP?

Using your church mind, is there any title LeBron has won and not been the best player on the team? You people are making look like LeBron played like Larry Nance and still was called the best player. We know he had help, like every other superstar in a championship winning team, but he has always been the best player. Finito.

And for your last point, then I guess Bill Russell should be the greatest player ever.

Why ?
You think if he wins just one for the nets it won't be huge for him personally and the franchise?

Honestly,I thought that since the warriors couldn't beat the raptors without him that should validate his move to the world.

His agent has a huge role in this I think the dude is from New York.
LeBron started this rubbish with his klutch sport.

KD and Kyrie should just not give a fúck what people say and not try to prove shít. KD would still get hated as usual. Best move would have been to stay with the Warriors however, if he comes back strong, I believe he can do something in the East. I repeat, they don't owe anyone shít or prove anything. Good luck to those guys.

Nobody is hating on KD anymore. In fact we now love him for ditching the Warriors. We all know the hate started when he joined the Warriors, and it has now come to an end with this sweet move.
Re: The NBA Begins by aliondo: 7:14am On Jul 01, 2019
Portis to the Knicks....

So what was all the fuss about all season about the Knicks clearing when they can't attract a superstar??
Is the organisation that bad? sad sad shocked shocked

I feel KD and Kyrie had this plan all hatched up before now...We are just seeing it materialise. ..

It hurts seeing Andre getting traded though. It's nothing close to KD leaving. Smart man and a great teammate.
It's funny how the two people you claimed were in good terms with the Warriors get traded. That means all your takes about the KD and Iggy situations have all been BS.
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 7:16am On Jul 01, 2019
Just a few months ago, the warriors were on top. Now everything has changed, the warriors are nobodies and the lakers who weren't in the playoffs, the franchise you were laughing at have become the boogeymen. Quick reminder folks, "Life is nothing but a fat vagina".

Eruditor:


Iggy was going to earn $16-18M on the year. It was more for the salary space than anything. What is the point of having him for conference finals that you might not get to with load management and what not?

KD could have been re-signed for the supermax simply because of bird rights. As he left, it is not like the money he did not take is available for other recruits. We could not survive and be formidable without letting off some cap space and sadly, Iggy has the most money after SC, Klay and Draymond.
Go ahead, console yourself.

I would have preferred they went to the Knicks though. I feel bad for the Knicks. All that cap space and nothing to do with it.

Again you're still missing the point. I'm saying presently any elite level player with an alpha mentality will not want to join a team set up for LeNomad to be the main guy especially at this point in their careers so why should Kawhi after this monster postseason join LeNomad when the league is his right now

I can expect such moves from AD and others without a chip but not the likes of Kawhi and KD who are in direct conversation for best player on the planet.

Lmaooo Bill Russell averaged less than 16pts per game. Get out of here with that!!
