The media was pushing Bron out of Cleveland before his first game. The Decision was the result of the hype they had built for 7 years. "Where's he going" was the big story 16, not KD choking away a 3-1 lead. Like literally the next day, that was the discussion.



And then when he signed with Miami there were a million think pieces on how he "abandoned" Cleveland. KD was criticized for the same thing they were trying to create a narrative for Giannis (signing with a team they lost to in the post-season).

And if he had stayed they woulda been calling him the new KG and saying he was stupid for passing on the squads he passed on. Moral of the story, media is gonna talk shyt and make a story regardless.

Huge mistake for his career if he cares about winning . Dude not sniffing a ring with this squad. People thought jrue holiday would move the needle :mjlol:
I'd give it 2 years before he demands a trade


The problem for him is that his value can dip as he ages because of his lack of NBA skills. So that contract can become untradeable in the future

enjoy your ringless career :mjlol:
We really laughing at someone who came from nothing, and now is guaranteed $228m, which fruits will bear for many generations to come, all because he didn't sacrifice for this illusion of winning a little shiny thing to go around his finger?

A game of basketball is only 48 minutes; the game of life is everything else.
My g, did you really just come through and edit your post as soon as the game finished?

Shameless.
