the join a team that's rebuilding, not the one that just knocked you out the playoffs. he just joined kyrie and harden in BKN, cosigned nash as a "coach" and wants to run isos all day from the top of the key.

y'all cap for superstars like a mf

Coulda been competitive with Kyrie and supporting cast. Instead they got greedy and went for a 3rd superstar in Harden. Sounds like a blatant superteam building to win easy rings. And we know how that backfired.

You get the point. He's a professional athlete, so eventually he'll still want to prove himself

KD needs to pray that Steph doesn't win.

No

KD is a competitor.

when you play NBA 2k on rookie, and win chips, is it fulfilling? No, because it's rookie mode.

It's more fulfilling when you challenge yourself, because then you know inside you are truly great.

KD knows the rings were cheap. Steph knows it too. There's a reason why steph said "I'm good right now" in response to joining with LeBron.

Theres a reason Belichick is still trying to win. Why Brady is still trying win another ring without Belichick.

1. To challenge yourself, so that you know how good you are,

2. So that there's no question. In the future, people would denigrate KD by saying "Steph still had more rings/MVPs without him".



Nah, there's still some cats that like to rank KD ahead of Steph inexplicably.

Talking heads have been pushing this narrative that Kevin Durant has been the best player in the world the last 7 years, which is ludicrous.

You a Steph guy so I know you're rooting for this lmao...

Steph and Durant's careers have overlapped now for 13 years, that's a hefty sample size, and they only played together 3 of those 13. Steph's career is markedly better in the decade no-Durant years than vice versa, and I think the shift of viewing Steph as historically greater than Durant is already in process and in the future people will question why we ever thought Durant was better, especially people who didn't watch them both in real time...

Certainly the assertions that Durant was the best player alive going back to '14 is revisionist history only pushed by LeBron haters. The absolute earliest that was even entertained on any measurable scale was after the '17 Finals, but even then given Bron's playoff run and coming off the '16 chip, the overwhelming majority still favored Bron...

Durant made his case stronger in each of the next two years ('18 and '19) then missed all of '20, then got back in the convo this year and last. But at no point in Kevin Durant's career was he ever viewed as head and shoulders, unanimously, or majority opinion, as the best player alive...

It just didnt happen to that degree and we all know it because we've seen his career...

Not sure why Legroupies are jumping with joy with this scenario.

We're in the "Lebron James era" yet another one of Bron's rivals and contemporaries wins yet another chip in it?

Y'all better pray one of the Griz, Suns, Celtics or Mavs win the chip.

Bron's era essentially extended from the year of his first MVP (2008-09) to his most recent championship (2019-20). Basically, the 2010s plus two years; it's why he's universally viewed as the player of the 2010s. For the record, no one ever controlled The League for this long at that degree of elite play, so thats one thing...

The other thing, whether you want to just look at '10s ball (2010-19), his actual reign of dominance (2008-20), or his entire career (2003-present), no one has won more championships, more championships as a team's best player, more MVPs, more Top 5 MVP finishes, more total trophies accumulated, or more All-NBA 1st Team or total honors...

By all the objective measures, whichever era you consider "Bron's era", nobody did more and he thoroughly dominated his window in time...

Guys winning titles in other guy's era's isnt wild, every GOAT had other guys "eat" chips during their reign of supremacy...

Bruh you insecure as shyt, typical Jordan loser...

Bron heads are not "worried" about anyone, his legacy is set. Anything anyone else does is gonna be measured against what he did in his run because he is the standard. Not the other way around, we ain't comparing Kawhi or Steph or Giannis or Durant to each other really, we measuring them all by the bar Bron set...

All of these players are plenty dominant in their own right but none of them reached his peak level of dominance and certainly not his sustained longevity of elite play...

The only muhfukkas "worried" about KD or Giannis or anyone are you shameless Bron haters who wish to discredit anything about the man, and use other great players as the conduit to get your insecurity off. Yall the true Bronsexuals...

I would say '19 at the earliest, '20 at the latest, but I get your point...

I respect Bron but despise male groupies. KD did wash him in 17 and 18 though. The Bron engineered super team era is dwindling down:whew:
