That smilie is how Kevin Durant actually looks. This ain’t what he signed for . He probably in curry crib right now squeezing the oil while Aisha rubs his ankle. He don’t want to be the solo man

Dame would have mos def signed off on a trade to Cleveland. He was one of the first guys going on about "why would anyone want to leave Lebron" would have interesting if that woulda happened...bet the Cavs wouldn't miss a beat.

And 2 they didn't have trade Kyrie. He's got a contract and his teammates loved him they coulda worked that out. Still baffled one of the most baffling trades ever. Only way they save face is if that nets pick becomes a superstar...or they turn it into one.

I feel you though

it wasnt that they HAD to trade Kyrie, it was just too much of a distraction once it got out, which Kyrie's people said it was a private conversation that someone leaked. then it was reported that Bron begged management to at least get Ky to training camp. at first a lot of people thought it was an untrue rumor then it became a forest fire that they couldnt put out and that was that.

Dame is a different kinda guy. He wouldve worked well with Bron. His ego isnt that big and he is a fairly loyal guy it seems. That is no disrespect to Kyrie, who really follows the guidance of his father moreso. I have always lauded Kyrie for making the move. He aint callin no other man daddy. He is the anti-KD.

Kyrie is an Aries (sun exalted....The sun in Aries best brings about the qualities of of the sun). Aries naturally want to be 1st and the leader.


KD is a Libra (the polar opposite of Aries....The Sun represents the principle of individuality. Here, in the sign of Libra, the solar principle is said to be in its “fall”. There is something inherently paradoxical about finding one’s individual self through the agency of another. ) they're more about being within a group of people and working together.

They're truly built differently and their astrological signs speak to their actions.

While a nice breakdown, you can't have a guy you're comparing to Keith Van Horn, Otto Porter Jr. and Harrison Barnes as the #2 on your list.

Jared Dudley has never been in the weight room.

he literally has like a 2" vertical right now.

absolutely terrible article/list

absolutely terrible article/list

The ringer is just bad. O’connor Is solid but the rest of it is just mediocre a lot of the time.

 

[duckbutta]

Josh Hart/Zubac/Cavs pick for Kawahi unless you want to lose him to us for nothing

If traded he is obviously Boston bound for Brown and Tatum and maybe a 1st...spurs get two young players with tons of upside and the celtics get a 3 headed monster of kyrie kawhi and hayward...that team sleepwalks to the nba finals as long as the celtics keep those 3 together...

dude, there is so much wrong with this article I don't know where to start, but imma try. these idiots compare MPJ to van horn (and van horn could ball), otto porter, and harrison barnes? then they call jaren jackson a millionaire's taj gibson and even worse a billionaire's amile jefferson? bagley gets compared to zach randolph and mike beasley? they say wendell carter has ballerina quickness when he has some of the slowest feet and reaction time i've seen for a big? they have zhaire smith in the top 10 (seriously?!) and compare him to danny green and wes matthews...for a guy who shoots only 0.9 3's a game in college? they somehow put shai G-A in the top 10 (more like top 20) but compare him to shaun livingston, patrick mccaw, and a bust in michael carter-williams? they compare miles bridges to derrick coleman and deshaun thomas...for a guy with no back to the basket game or handles/creation/passing? they have rawle alkins at #12 (more like top 25-30) and compare him to eric bledsoe and aaron mcckie? Like WTF were they doing when they were putting this list together?
