Oscar Robertson 'The Big O' on super teams:

In pushing hard for free agency, Robertson helped found the Church of What’s Happening Now. Old-school players have criticized the practice of playing with a stacked deck. Not Robertson.

“What’s wrong with a stacked deck?” he once told me. “I don’t think, in this day and age, one superstar is going to win.”

Robertson compared free agency to playing pickup ball on the playground, where you chose your team. “When you went down to the playground, if you got beat, you go home. So what do you do?” he said. “You look around and you get guys who can play basketball.”

I mean put that simply how can we argue against it when any body who has played ball has done this. When you picked next you chose the best 5 you could so you can stay on the court all damn day

Be clear, the reason why folks said Durant's move was b-tch made, is instead of recruiting and coming back he went and joined the team that beat him.
