Why aren't more players teaming up like LeBron & Durant?

You need at least 2/3 All Stars to compete in this Golden State/Cleveland era. The West would be so much better if CP3 for example went to San Antonio or Paul George left Indiana for OKC or Houston.

Because most franchises aren't currently structured to have 3-4 max contract players on them at once. GS isn't going to be as stacked once they have to max out Draymond and Klay. Curry isn't even getting max money I believe.

The GS situation is not easily replicable. I mean how can you plan to draft a player then have him get injured right before his contract is up so he signs a cheaper deal, then have him turn into a top 5 player in the league.

they would if they could or want to if money is right or it will be in a city they wouldn't mind living in and fukking hoes at ease

lebron wouldn't went back to cleveland if kyrie wasn't there and a nikka like smush parker was the cavs guard... then add the fact he was able to make sure k love was going to be there and not wiggins , because no other top BLACK player was going to cleveland no matter if they have a chance to get a ring


i don't mind durant in oakland, because why stay in a place if u and russ not getting along... then what top black ball player going to run and signed to boston.... why signed with that mess in new york.... miami is cool but durant wasn't going to win this year or next with them.... so it came down to the spurs or the warriors and he feel better playing in the warriors system....

i'm all about money fukk the rings, so i would have chose the spurs because no state taxes

Because most people want the most money possible

Lebron and em took pay cuts to for the heat

Stephen Curry is a great team friendly contract because when his career was in doubt. Klay and Draymond signed before the cap went crazy so they had enough for a max play in KD

The Cavs is because Dan Gilbert don't care about paying hundreds of millions in luxury taxes and other owners do care about paying luxury tax. One of the reason why Lebron left Miami.

Just simple math nikka it ain't science :yeshrug:

Why you think Melo ain't playing for a contender because money ain't right.
