If there is a problem with super-teams its being caused by the current CBA limiting the ability of players to fully maximize their value in the market. Something that was dictated by the owners. Your solution is to further restrict the players rights, so billionaire owners can pocket even more each year. What is it about professional athletes that people are so willing to throw away their rights?

Agreed. It's also a very unique situation with a healthy dose of luck that's allowed Durant to join GS.

If Curry's ankles hold up more his first few years and he signs a max deal this doesn't happen. Likewise if the cap hadn't blown up all at once this year.

How come no stars want to come to the East? They basically let Lebron run the East for free.

Why do people keep bringing up Currys ankles or Durant's foot but not Westbrooks knee or Ibaka's hamstrings? Not you specifically but Ive seen it brought up more than a handful of times by a few posters.

We should change the thread title btw:

NBA Offseason |OT| "There's no escaping the nWo"

New Warrior Order

Think about it the other way.

Why bother going East when Lebron is always there to be the gatekeeper?

No the current title is perfect and it still fits.

Curious on how RW reacted. Dude always plays angry, I want to see him go super saiyan next year.

[elrechazado]

That quote is so garbage. They said if they don't team up, they might win again as a team and he might win with the Thunder as well but together they could win a hell of a lot more than separate.

Can you give us more insider info on the meetings you attended?

DO IT AINGE!

 

[darkwing-buck]

I want to see Wade on the celtics!

 

[Tom Penny]

Fuck Wade. I hate him more than any other player and him and Smarts combined flopping and complaining will put me over the edge.

OKC Imploding.

That's good, but it's not the GOAT.

[gerudoman]

He'll probably be more of a backup player though, the guy who handles the ball when Simmons isn't playing

How good of a locker room guy is he? Also, its tough to turn down 8 mil

Can't speak much of his previous NBA experience, but one of the keys of Madrid's success the last seasons was the great chemistry between all players, and Rudy Fernández, Sergio Llull and Chacho were the core of the team. Here's one of the last BBQ organised at Chacho's:

He will be sorely missed

 

[RootCause]

Fuck Wade. I hate him more than any other player and him and Smarts combined flopping and complaining will put me over the edge.

Let it all out.

If this was any other team and you had 3 superstars and lost them. You would be fired.

Delusional Celtics fans

He ain't about that Boston winter life....

Let us give him the Kobe contract while he chills at the beach with Gabby

 

[TheSadRanger]

Has Dwight verbally committed to anyone yet? Could he do a vet minimum deal with GS??

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

I keep hearing this get brought up, but Wade had a really good season last year and literally carried the Heat through the playoffs. I get that he's getting older, but frankly it's Bosh's contract that has become the noose around the Heat's neck.

The Heat has made some questionable contract offers these past 3 summers and each time they've looked to Wade to take a paycut to "take one for the team."

KD firing back at Stephen A again

@KDTray5: Get your head out of your ass. It's a business decision. Just like your buddy Skip is leaving you for Fox.

He signed with Atlanta

Kevin Durant does not want to cross him. He's a black man on national television!

Just saw this

Hus knees are stick together with rubber bands right now. He still has some gas in thd tank, but not enough for a 3-4 year contract at max money like he is looking for. Yeah, Riley has treated him like shit, but I still haven't like him since his suplex of Rondo..

Lol, but Ninja said he didn't care about that!!!!

Oh well. Is it true that Nike made him do it?

 

[catpurrcat]

Sam Presti deserves this like I said before.
He also deserved this for trying to rob the Raptors of a bench with that pathetic offer for Ibaka.

Yeah those ibaka trade demands, if true, whoa.

 

[StylesClash]

People are way too serious about this shit. Does it suck if you're an OKC fan yes, but acting like he's responsible for your happiness...get your priorities straight.

One dad even filmed his kid crying just to post it. How fucked a parent are you to do that and THEN blame someone you don't even know in real life?

Shit is crazy. People are crazy.

Btw: Lakers totally got fucked on that Chris Paul deal back in the day.

You mean the play where Rondo had Wade arms hooked when they both fell?

 

[B.O.O.M]

Sounds like Blazers want some of dat ZaZa

Nah. I want you to watch this and apologize lol. Look at that Wade swag after that.

Zaza to the warriors, 1 year 2.9M

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Zaza to the warriors, 1 year 2.9M

This is probably one of the best bargain deals of this off-season.
Warriors stay winning. Just my goodness.
ZaZa gets that while Mosgov gets 16 million per year?

 

[El Topo]

Zaza to the warriors, 1 year 2.9M

Man, this free agent season keeps getting worse and worse for us. Zaza for that money is a steal.
