Kevin Durant Says He's Not to Blame for NBA's Parity Concerns

[Verbal Kint]

He's not right tho. When people talk about parity they not talking about Orlando making the playoffs or the 6-8th seeds. They're talking about teams with a real shot at the title. His move made GS SOOOO good that they moved a tier above everyone else. If he stayed the SA, OKC, GS and Houston would all have legit shots to come out of the West. Now only GS did. Bron is Bron and the East doesn't have the contenders of the West so yea they'd have still ran through the East but still, his move changed things from 5 contenders to really just 1. The only reason people think this Finals may be fun is the thought of LeBron going ballistic but in reality its probably a 5 game series

 

[Konnan]

Why at this point would you not just shave that shyt off:cubewut:

 

[FTBS]

Sell that shyt KD. nikka trying so hard to be a heel . What's funny is that he indeed needs more people and no one is going for this, just like people aren't buying humble babyface Bron Cena either. They need to stick to having Draymond being the shyt talker of the squad.

 

[El Coupeacabra]

Maybe he doesn't beat Lebron playing on any team in the east.

But he'd absolutely change the competitive balance of the league/conference by being there. Despite what he thinks.

And that's the only point I made.

Ok sure...that's true.

But...this...doesn't mean anything breh. It means absolutely nothing in the grand sheme of things.

There is no praise or award or monetary bonus for "making Bron work hard." That's just called losing breh.

The Spurs played a VERY competitive series in 2013. Did y'all get anything for it? Does ANY Spurs fan look back at 2013 fondly?

 

[Loose]

no one cares about parity what people want is competitive basketball. so yes he is to blame

 

[duckbutta]

Heel Durant would be great if it didn't seem so forced...

 

[NatiboyB]

But they couldn't.

They could of closed it out...but KD lacked heart

 

[dem bath salts]

Not on the players. It's the league's responsibility to put out a competitive product. If they don't, they should be criticized.

If Durant didn't go to Golden State, nobody would beat Cleveland. Besides the fact that you'd have 3-4 teams beating each other up in the west for a month and Cleveland would be able to sleepwalk to the Finals again, the Cavs are fukking LOADED. None of these western teams as constructed besides this current iteration of GS would have enough to compete.

 

[AAKing23]

I really can't stand this nikka now, he needs to STFU

That's not entirely true, the Celtics or Wizards with KD would have a very real chance of beating the Cavs.

 

[The War Report]

The 2nd best player in the world really said he can't make any team in the east better, brehs.

No, he said he can't make the rest of the east better.

 

[kickz]

This emo fakkit will forever be Curry's bytch

That said, I like the GoldenState Warriors

I could see the Wiz, but not the Celts. I'd still hate their front court besides Durant.
