And I have no problem with it. You won't catch me bytching about shyt being unfair. All I ask for is those that did bytch about fairness and asterisk the last three years keep that same energy and we good.

If you never complained about KD going to the Warriors then you straight.
Still totally different situation.

Ad and kawhi going to a losing team.

Kd went to a record setting team... say the lakers break the regular season record and then someone like harden goes over there, then that matches what the warriors/kd did.

I will. Kawhi going to the Lakers will be just as weak as KD going to the Warriors and I will lose respect for him.

I think he was talking more about not taking any more discounts to help a team build or doing the short term deals, but finally maxing out on a contract. Similarly to how Bron took the discount in MIA, did short term deals in CLE, before maxing out in LA.
The players have shown that if they have the desire to play somewhere else, they will give up $50M+ if that's what it takes.

I understand the circumstances of the teams they joined being different but the end result is the same. They're stacking the deck and weakening their competition in the process. For the record, I had zero problems with Bron going to Miami or KD going to Golden State.

Who gave up $50M with a bad Achilles?

If they never wanted to extend him then they should've traded him instead of just letting him walk for free.
Theyre offering him more than any other team can thoug . Just because it's not 200m doesnt mean they dont want him
