West is basically:
1) warriors
2) Spurs
3) clips

Jazz are right there with the Blazers or Grizzlies or any other team for the 4th spot

Losing west and diaw is huge. Spurs need Duncan to stay now



These two single handily lost the okc series with their inability to rebound or make open shots :mjlol:

Diaw was so bad he didn't even so the floor in a damn elimination game :mjlol:

He going down as one of my fav spurs ever for his incredible 2014 playoff run...but the last two years he been declining everywhere but his waist size...

And I am :whew: that west signed somewhere else cause i was so scared Swag Antonio was going to give him an extension because he took the minimum last year...:whew:

GOAT organization got the thunder imploding on their left and the warriors keeping them from making mistakes on their right :whew:

GS are gonna run over everyone, but last season's non-playoff and trash teams will actually be watchable:

D-Rose and the Knicks
Thiberwolves with their young GOAT squad
Giannis ball-handling for the whole season and triple doubling on everyone and Jabari's growth
The Sixers and all their crazy talent
Lakers will be less terrible and Ingram might be good

:mindblown:

Why did you only highlight one part of my statement? I was talking about BOTH sides -

I'm well aware that they had been 'recruiting' him so to speak, prior to the offseason. That still doesn't take away from what I said. If the Warriors did win back-to-back titles, it would've had an impact on Durant's decision just like Barnes ballin out in the Finals would've had an impact on the Warriors pursuing Durant too.

It would've affected both parties - the Warriors pursing and Durant's decision of where he was going. Just because they had been recruiting him during the season doesn't mean they would've gone to the same extent they did do if Barnes ended up having a FMVP performance/being a major factor in them winning a title - Warriors sweeping the Cavs. Priorities would've changed. How hard is for you to comprehend?

:martin:

I don't give a damn if you were "talking about both sides" as I wasn't, so no one cares about your pie in the sky hypothesis in regards to Durant's decision if Golden State had won because it's simply based on your opinion & not factual.

And again my previous posts were strictly based on the FACT that the Warriors would have STILL recruited KD regardless (as they have been doing low key for close to 2 years even as Champions) even if they had won the chip this year no matter how well Barnes performed.

STFU Clown! :camby:

The Warriors were going to try and sign Durant to bolster & reinforce their team with additional weapons even if GS won the championship this year & regardless of what impact Barnes may have had on the court during the finals

This is nothing but conjecture just like most of your :trash: posts, plus there was no way that GS would have passed up an opportunity to get a player of Durant's caliber in his prime who's a 4 time league scoring champion & generational superstar, over Harrison Barnes (and I'm a Barnes fan).

Are you really this stupid? :lolbron: :snoop:

GS got one of the best, top 3 -5 players/scorers in Durant to strengthen their championship quest for essentially 2 years @ $54.3 Million (with an chance for the Warriors to resign him later after the two year deal) vs a relegated bench player who would've cost them $94 Million over 4 years. And if you do the math dunce, you'll figure out that per year, GS got Durant over Barnes for approximately $3.65 Million more than Barnes, which is an outright bargain & total win for the Warriors organization (or any team for that matter) anyway you look at it.
