The Knicks traded Ewing, the Heat didn't even want to take care of their franchise Wade whom btw was never the highest player on his own squad..

Like I said Loyalty to owners brehs yet they will turn around and kick you right in the ass when your used up or for something better..

No one asks for loyalty to the owners, loyalty is between the players and the fans, when you leave to the team you are competing against or when the team is contending for the title, you are cheating on them as long as they supported you from the beginning. I don't think anybody even knows the name of the owner of the Thunder without googling it.

Riley offered Wade 40 million and he could barely dunk anymore, if that ain't taking care then I don't know what it is.
Ewing was old and washed, if he left on his own at that point, knicks fans would have told him to go get that bread :salute:, and his number got retired anyway so they took care of him :yeshrug:.
If you are not serviceable, fans will be happy to see you go to a team where you can still play and be happy.

Btw I don't understand how all this gives KD the right to say anything about loyalty.

we call kd for going to the warriors. Two different things

Did he demand a trade? Did he not play for OKC for 9 years? Did he not have a dumb ass coach? Did he not have a GM who was cheap and didn't want to keep the home grown potentional dynasty in tact? Did the GM not trade Harden? Did the GM not lie to Ibaka in taking less in order to sign Harden only to trade Harden to Houston for Kevin Martin?

How you want it breh?

KD was loyal to OKC for 9 years and all they did was put fukkery around him... Scott Brooks, Billy Donovan, trading Harden, lying to Ibaka to take less in order to keep Harden only to trade him for Kevin Martin

I mean we can talk about this all day

If I said last year at this time Russell Westbrook would average 31/10/10 what would you have said?

the dude had the green light and free rein to do what he wanted. Kyrie will not put up 33 ppg in Boston's motin offense and Gordon Haywood getting his shots


Kyrie will win the scoring title in 2017-18. He'll average 33ppg. And the Celtics are winning 55 games and advancing to the NBA Finals.

I got Kyrie over LeBron in the ECF

did he not go to the team that just beat him after being up 3-1
Did he not go to a team that just won 73 games
Nobody mad at him for leaving it's the team he choose to go. Could have went anywhere else and he would not have to hear about he leaving the thunder for the rest of his career

He had every right to go where ever he wanted he was an unrestricted free agent

PG had one year left on his contract, Kyrie has two. It's only a one-year difference. And Butler is also two years.

Kyrie for Isaiah Thomas, Crowder, and a high lottery pick.

Butler for Lavine, Dunn, and moving up 9 spots in the draft.

PG13 for Oladipo (on a huge contract) and Sabonis.


Sorry, but the Cavs' haul is huge compared to the other two hauls. Criticizing them for not getting enough is just stupid.
There is no guarantee PG will resign so he is not of the value of Butler and Kyrie.

Boston has GH locked up long term so why would they want Butler?

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
When has anyone ever averaged that playing with Bron?

Kyries a far better scorer than IT, IT won't average more than 22ppg. Ain't nobody hating on that nikka. Y'all foolish thinking IT is an upgrade.

So, Thomas is going to be worse & less efficient playing with better offensive options around him is what you're saying?


Why do yall have arguments with your own minds? Point out where I said he's an upgrade :camby:
