This sucks.

KD is the current best player who haven't got any ring. Big pressure on the guy. He has achieved everything in NBA, except a RING. He took risk and moved to Warriors.

But this still sucks.

It's being a lopsided and soft league. Matches aren't enough fun to watch anymore.

In recent years, the only moment I enjoyed was the last game of Kobe.

I follow NBA for 10 years, and I think that it's the end for me.

Silver got to make a statement after this shit. Bring back handchecking pleassssssseeeeeeeee and full court press for a whole quarter! You can hardly touch shooters in the NBA now. This team is virtually unguardable without that rule.

Didn't expect this to happen, but as I said many now hates him. Now the criticisms the Warriors will get for not winning the Finals next year will be bigger than this season. KD is really not nice. :lol:

Everyone hyping this KD move.... but if you think about it he's not joining the same 73-9 team. GS are losing 8 players this offseason, it will be interesting to see how it works out for them.

But on another note, how about the Knicks this offseason? They've been making some serious moves that could push them into the Playoff scene. Gotta show some respect to Phil Jackson, especially when we all speculated he was going to jump ship next season and not do much until then.

A fairly solid move, as it looks like Duncan is leaning towards retirement. That's a shame; I was hoping he'd become the second player to play 20 seasons for the same team.

Quickly making some roster edits to grab a screenshot this morning, I noticed something rather amusing in Kevin Durant's vitals in the official NBA 2K16 roster:

Never thought I'd agree with that loud idiot on anything. But he's right with this.

LeBron left a mediocre supporting cast to join a team that had been knocked out in the first round two straight years. He helped create a "superteam", he didn't join one that was already there.

Durant left one of the top 4 teams in the NBA to join a team that won 73 games last season and has been to the finals twice in a row. A team that also has the twice reigning MVP and who were the ones who knocked his team out of the WCF last season.

It's like if LeBron had left and joined the Celtics in 2010.

Barkley is over on that now. He's even laughing at it.

I heard someone say that there was a rumour that Wade may rejoin LeBron and head to the Cavs on a one year deal,if there is any truth to that then he will be leaving a lot of money on the table and defeating the object of "Miami owes me"

Nice to see the Rockets characteristically add three-point shooters to cater to D'Antoni's boner for threes. Boy what a season we have ahead.
