It's rather hypocritical that some people keep saying that Durant should have stayed in GS considering they were the same ones bytching about him going there in the first place.

Pick one narrative and stick to it instead of flip flopping based on how it's played out.

Putting all the blame on Draymond is only making him the scapegoat for the narrative that everyone else was using.

Dubs lost in 2016. Can't be the greatest team if all time when you didn't win it all. If the Warriors had won, I don't believe KD joins them. They had the best regular season record ever. That's it. They had lost 5 playoff games before getting to the Finals too.

95/96 bulls were 87-13 between playoffs and regular season. That's the GOAT NBA team in a season to me

You weren't and I wasn't, but a lot of people on this site and in general were doing so.

They did the same thing that Draymond did in diminishing the part that Durant played in GS and saying that his rings didn't matter. It would be the same narrative now had he stayed.

Should've embraced being the villain cause he is anyway

It's wild to me that Drew Eubanks was the 3rd string center on a tanking Spurs team, backup center on a tanking Blazers team, and the suns were like "yeah this the guy we want to give 12 to 18 minutes to in every playoff game" :pachaha:
Nah bro, Suns fans swore up and down they had put together this awesome bench in the offseason



In reality, you know when someone is hyped their team signed Bol Bol, they don't know anything about basketball :dead:

Legit CP3 saved this mf from being another Zach Lavine
Cause he was absolutely looked at as an empty calorie stats loser before CP3 got there
Teams done nothing after CP3 left. They should beg him to come back. He can’t be a starter anymore but get whatever you can out of him

Is it time for that "conversation" about the leagues alleged best SG :patrice:


He carried the suns against the nuggets last year. They won some games cause of him and the rest were close of him. Not his fault. This year he has been alright but last year nobody played better.

the timberwolves were more physical and bullied the suns in the paint both offensively and defensively . Offensively they out-scored the suns in the paint 56-36.

They also dominated the suns when it came to rebounding too.

Total Rebounds were 50-28 in favour of Minnesota

Offensive rebounds Minnesota 15, Phoenix 5
Defensive rebounds Minnesota 35, Phœnix 23

Total number of rebounds (offensive +defensive) Minnesota 50, Phoenix 28

Been telling yall from 3 years ago what it was with dude.. he’s a bytch ass nikka who gets embarrassed when the lights are bright lol

That Kobe stimulus package can only take you so far.


This faggit, tatum, and Randle been eating for YEARS off of it. But they always shrink in the clutch moments.

The only Kobe sons to win anything have been Kyrie and Giannis

I personally think he woulda stayed with Golden State if him and Draymond Green didn't get into it, I take KD's side because Draymond is confrontational and always losing his fvcking temper

Don't get me wrong Dray fits the Warriors system perfectly, and if he didn't get suspended so much the Warriors would've had a better record and been in the playoffs as a decent seed

instead they all on a yacht fishing right now
I feel bad for Curry because that was a wasted season

Is anybody from his teammates to the organization going to tell Dray to seriously chill the fvck out or what ?

When the Warriors won the championship a couple years ago, Steph Curry thanked KD for the rings he helped him get, so I'm guessing KD wasn't the problem

He would've stayed in the Bay longer

He definitely would've stayed.
