The Official 2016-2017 NBA Thread (NBA Champs Warriors)

[Max.]

while i understand wanting a ring...i do

but what happened to being the best because YOU beat the best.

like someone else said.....niggas called from the parking lot after they loss.

curry telling niggas....i'll give you the ball.

where is the competitive spirit?

this nigga went to the only real threat to another niggas title run.

i get the whole teams arent loyal shit...

but

i dont know.

honestly.....he gonna regret this shit in the long run....

this will forever come up in interviews in the future.

say what you want......but the shit will wear on anyone.

again...congratz

but (i feel) he damn near sold his soul for this ring.

KD did just beat the best

That man ain't going to regret shit!!

If KD wins another ring or 2 and leads the warriors just like he did for this one ain't nobody gonna bring that shit up at all. There will be another hot take to talk about.

People will always find a reason to talk down on a nigga accomplishments.

I didn't like Bron going to miami with Wade and Bosh. I didn't like KD going to the warriors.

But I can't hate on either of them accomplishing their goals.

If a teams management ain't getting the job done and/or you not meshing well with the other best player on your team then WTF is the purpose of staying on said team?

but the nigga used the cheatcode.

there was a time where a man would be able to be the best but not have a chip.

he injected himself to the least amount of work possible team.

he stole the ring bruh.....

im not dissing the PGCounty area but that nigga did a flash mob and overwhelmed the store security to steal the ring. he aint walk on some boss shit. them niggas bumsrushed the door.

can you really respect that?

How yall feel about this quote, thats a bit of a bold statement lol

"They are not unbeatable. There have been bigger upsets in sports history. We are going to keep improving our roster... We are used to long odds. If Golden State makes the odds longer, we might up our risk profile and get even more aggressive. We have something up our sleeve."

We ain't beating them niggas

[lord nemesis]

Hopefully he committed that last night

Niggas tight cuz durant did what he wanted to do and not what they wanted him to do

It's all good when lebron does it resulting in his teams sweeping thru the east for years.Now they wanna cry when someone else it does

bu but He shoulda went to play with 40 y/o manu and washed tony parker with kahwi being the ONLY good player moving forward or he shoulda played wit a midget and marcus smart jumping around like a wwe wrestler every play

Shut the fuck up

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

and I'm on record saying I thought durant move was corny cuz the thunder were the only viable threat to the warriors in the west

but I got over it and understood it.These groupies STILL cryin

 

[detcatinva]

People still dont wanna come to terms he left cuz he dont wanna play with selfish ass Westbrook no more

 

[lord nemesis]

That's the elephant in the room that a lotta these so called analysts be tap dancing around. He got tired of playing with that low b ball IQ narcissist

 

[Go figure]

Niggas tight cuz durant did what he wanted to do and not what they wanted him to do

Reminds me of lebrons "The Decision". Here in Chicago mfs were giddy at the possibility of him coming to the bulls. I remember the front page paper putting him in a bulls uniform.

When he said South Beach it was "fuck lebron james his arrogant ass made a whole tv show (that they tuned into) for this shit???"

I was thoroughly disgusted at the bitchassness of those around me.

If he wouldve came to chicago mfs would praise him like a god.

Thats why i enjoy when athletes make "fuck what u fans think" moves.

Durant didn't like being an iso player in OKC

He also wanted to step out his comfort zone to be the person/player he always wanted to be.

He is happy as fuck on and off the court now in the Bay area

How can you be mad at him?

 

[Beta]

And look at this dumbass..

KD doesn’t have G–14 Classification,” O’Neal said, according to Sports Illustrated’s The Crossover, referring to an unwritten specification among NBA champs. “He can’t talk to me like that. He may think he does, and he’s sticking up for his teammate. He’s a great player, but you ain’t in the club yet. You’re on the outside in line with [Charles] Barkley, [Karl] Malone and [John] Stockton. You’re not in the club with me and those [championship] guys. That’s why I tweeted him, ‘Mind ya business.’”

Now him and javale can talk that shit? Lol

Yea I was one of them.I was mad he didn't join the bulls but I'm a bulls fan

These other dudes groupies who tryna compare the situation to durant which is laughable.

So u agree, ok then what we talking bout? We all understand, like I said some more willing to let it slide, some Gon continue to call it a ho move, my only problem is folk acting like the semantics are miniscule. Y'all can't get upset cuz niggas don't respect KD as much, u be in here belittling Bron too so how u gon call folks mad over kd lol

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

I actually wanted Bron on the bulls too, i spent that summer up there n was hoping he'd come, didn't think he n wade were a fit, and they weren't they had to work it out

 

[Beta]

Funny I thought Bron was going to the bulls too

 

[BDBIID]

"It's wrong because he joined a 73 win team, instead he should've joined a 67 win spurs team. Then and only then I would've respected him!"

:/

This leads me to believe dip in tv ratings might have more to do with technology/streaming/apps than the league itself

"You think you’re frustrated? How would you like to get there eight times and not win? I told LeBron, ‘I wanted to quit.’ In the height of my career, I wanted to quit. I was so angry, so frustrated.” West once almost punched a heckler who criticized him for his Finals record when he was jogging through his neighborhood in Los Angeles in the offseason. Imagine if he’d had Twitter. – via ESPN

Lol

'corny cuz the thunder were the only viable threat to the warriors in the west'

don't just bold one part of the sentence.Durant joining the warriors weakened the warriors only legit threat to beat them in a series.

Dudes been complaining about the east being weak and now the west is the same it's a one team conference which is bad for the nba.

We just saw the two teams who played in the finals collectively go 24-1 in the playoffs

 

[Go figure]

Its not about whether chicagoans wanted lbj in chicago...its that they were okay with him joining a superstar (Rose in his prime) who was his biggest competition in the east playoffs year after year only to turn around n be hypocritical about him "joining the competition" only bc hes not on their side.

Everyone not miami was mad. Cleveland was the only ones i couldnt be mad at for acting like bitches.
