Would be interesting to see, but the Warriors owner already made it clear that they not trading Wiseman or Kuminga

Should actually go to the Knicks.
If it weren't for slimeball lowlife NY sports reporters, he might have taken his talents to the Knicks for The Decision.

On the tail end of his career, and with low expectations for the franchise this could be a good landing spot.

Zeke said he believed that he could have gotten Lebron. People forget that zeke was a mentor for bron and a lot of those 2000s players.

The blow back from the decision was all about the league owners being pissed he didn't go to any of the large market or historical teams.

Finally I put nothing pass the NBA. This a league in which gilbert bytched about the lakers and large market teams getting players when Lebron left. To then trading Kyrie to Boston and trading players to LA to help open up cap space for Lebron leaving to LA.

Folks need to remember its 30 owners working together for what is best for the league. I said before if the Celtics win it all I wouldn't be surprised if the league tries to milk this and have Lebron play the Celtics in the finals before he retires (left coast large market team preferably lakers, but GS brings that large market as well without the historical value).

So nothing surprises me especially when it comes down to the hanky panky in the NBA and NFL.

Curry already teamed up with KD, he probably wants to get another chip solo (and a Finals MVP, which he won't get with LeBron)

Kd wining those Finals MVPs in that superteam already did enough damage to his rep, that's only being undone now, adding LeBron if they LOSE this year would hurt it more

Real talk with their age and miles on them (plus Klay body breaking down and being a shell of what his body once was) this probably the last deep run GS has unless they bring in another star. They are long in the teeth with curry, klay and green.

Bron averaged 3.07 dribbles per touch this year. That was 142nd in the NBA, lower than Steph (4.06 dribbles per touch) and Poole (3.51 dribbles per touch).

How little basketball have you watched to believe that Bron hasn't excelled in a player movement offense? The 2013 Heat were arguably his greatest team and their movement was fantastic.

Don't say shyt just because other people on The Coli told you it was true.

but the daps and reps though. gotta keep the narratives alive... :blessed:

You're acting like Steph is competing with Bron for legacy. :skip:

Steph is not surpassing Bron's legacy under ANY circumstances, that ship sailed long ago. No one involved is under any illusions there. Steph's legacy gains with Bron if playing with Bron extends his career and increases his titles. Steph's legacy loses with Bron if playing with Bron reduces his usage or decreases his titles. Steph's legacy has jack shyt to do with how many rings Bron has because Steph ain't never passing Bron under any circumstances.
Lol that's not true imo

If steph gets his 4th chip this year, not only does he tie lebron in ring count, but

  • It would be his 2nd non superteam ring without Durant
  • He would have to go through a 2nd seed Grizzlies and 1st seed 64 win Suns team on the road
  • All with Klay being "a shell of himself"
That won't be enough to put him ahead of course... but it opens the door again. What if next year, Poole and Kuminga make that leap, the team is healthy, and Curry gets out of his shooting slump? We forget that Curry is an MVP level player otherwise. It's NOT impossible that they repeat next year.

If that happens, you really don't think a discussion would be had?
