Kawhi frigging sabotage the Lakers. This is tee most wicked shit ever.

So he was plotting all these in the background meanwhile preventing the Lakers from making a move.

The Lakers are stuck with an aging KD, injury prone Davis, kuzma, very little flexibility going forward and a large gap in the squad to fill. Meanwhile the clippers got two superstars in their prime.
AD would be crying now. It's not good to have a beta mentality walahi. As wildly gifted as he is he allowed himself be a puppet in LeNomad's show instead of staying with NOLA and a thinking GM

he called himself the goat

Many MJ fans picked offence


If he gets 3 more rings, the goat argument is settled for good

Mj fans don't want that to happen


That is the Genesis and Revelation of the issue

MJ had great players around him

And the NBA was generally weak then

These points have been argued and agreed

I have been following basketball and the fandom of certain players for a long time and I can tell you for free that Bronsexuals are the worst and most vile of the lot. They're the ones that tagged KD a snake, make jokes about Steph's wife and we even had an obtuse tool here claiming MJ got his old man killed.

Some of the hate LeNomad gets to an extent is due to how tedious and unbearable most of his fans can be.

Honestly, most people don't hate LeBron James. At least not him as a person. If you dig deep, it's his fans and Minions bringing the hate. You could literally wake up in the morning and they'll say LeBron made your night better.

You're sadly mistaken if you think 3 more rings for LeNomad makes him the GOAT.

Who are the great players that played with MJ let's list their accolades and compare with that of LeNomad

Who told you the league was weak? If we asked you to back this claim up I'm sure you can't

Kawhi Leonard, Paul George to Clippers! Lakers Lost! 2019 NBA
Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 10:15am On Jul 06, 2019
Woj reported after the fact that kawhi wanted to go to the best team available. With the PG trade the clippers immediately became the best of the 3 teams on the table.
If the trade had not happened everyone can agree that both the Lakers and the Raptors at least on paper will be better than the clippers. So in a way the fillers before the Decision were not all that off the script.

PS: the NBA is going to be incredible this upcoming season, kwahi and PG's decision will make for a competitive season. Legacies will be made and enhanced.

Not surprised

Kwahi acting like he is so good

LBJ has been to the playoffs final 9 times


How many times has he been to the playoffs finals

Managed to beat a weak GSW team and suddenly he is the boss


It's good for the Lakers in my opinion, enough salary cap to fill the team up with quality players

The one shitty decision the franchise made was picking Westbrook over KD as the alpha.

Westbrook, cp3 and John wall's contracts are big cause to worry abt giving players the supermax.

It was introduced to prevent superteams but it seriously handicaps a teams flexibility.

Not gonna lie they got us in the first half, I legit thought Kawhi was gonna be a laker fo sho but he made a good move tho. Lakers might no longer be the best team in LA but we've seen Lebron do it before. Looking forward to next season, Cali will be on Fire.



PG is fvcking good but we have AD and will probably get iggy and a mad 3- pointer in Kover.As for the warriors, those ones are done without klay. We all know how Curry be when he has no help

John wall's own is just unbelievable, Dudes wouldn't even be playing for like 16months.
Most players don't even care about the supermax contract, they want the Rings!!!

I think Kawhi to the Clippers is the best move for the NBA. As a fan of the Lakers I lowkey didn't want Kawhi to come, cos after thrashing the Warriors for 3 years it would be hypocritical of me to want a superteam of three top five players.

Kawhi coming to Lakers was only going to leave a dent on whatever championships LeBron was going to win (you can see what's going on with KD). And I couldn't bear to see LeBron take the backseat for anyone, like we all thought he'd do for Kawhi.

And for those who think we don't have a squad, chill. Raptors won the chip with basically 8 players, including one superstar. We have 2 superstars, and there's still some good role players in the market. We've already gotten Green, KCP and Javale. Add Rondo and one more player and we good. If that is done, we'd have;
LeBron
AD
Kuzma
Green
Rondo
Javale
Daniels
Dudley
Caruso
Williams
KCP
Morris/Cousins.
Talen

Laugh all you want at this roster, but we're winning with this.

Now we can all sit back, relax and watch the best of LeBron James without any form of restriction. And AD, phew, watch out for those pick n rolls. Enjoy a wonderful 2019/2020 season. See you in the playoffs.

If harden, cp3, gordon combo was a problem,

Dlo, curry, klay, draymond combo +good depth will be problematic.
Counting the warriors out in the west is naive.
