I really dont give a damn, just don't like the double standard. If you call yourself the best player in the league...you care dude. Believe that.

Its very close, he is going to Golden State for the exact same reason Lebron went to Miami. Except he is considered a boy scout by people so he gets the benefit of not being judged. Very silly to me.

You mean with the Lakers? Pretty well initially if I remember right...and then fired. Then Cleveland again and fired again. So yes, he owes his longevity to Lebron.
I was just making a smartass comment though. Blatt is the only one you can say Lebron might be at fault for.

I blame Lebron for being an asshole to Blatt, but based on what's been reported, Blatt was clueless.

Holy shit, Kevin Durant has no say if he gets traded to GS. He isn't forcing the trade. He thought it was disrespectful when the Wizards courted him earlier this year and said it publicly. Lebron James made a whole spectacle of his FA where he made the choice. He didn't even have the decency to call Cleveland and tell them he was leaving. They found out when everyone else did. Then, the heat go and do this.

So, no, the situations aren't in the same ball park. Im not even a Lebron hater but this is just lulzy.

Ok, a trade is a little bit different...though GS would already know if he is going to sign long term prior to a trade. If he is so competitive...he can obviously let OKC know he doesn't like the trade...because he wants to beat Curry/Thompson, not join them. And if traded, he can refuse to sign. But I have heard that Golden State is definitely the top team to sign him in the off season as an FA. If he went there as an FA, the situations are totally identical. I don't see how it can be seen any other way

I guess KD has been colluding with Steph this whole time right under our noses!

You mean like Joe Johnson and the Chicago Bulls? What Lebron did is not considered collusion by the NBA.

korver to Cleveland would be huge. Teague to Indiana would have impact but I don't think they could beat Cleveland still. IMO Teague fits hoiball very nicely...he pushes the ball up court, makes quick decisive decisions with the ball, and can shoot. too bad we got rose blocking that happening

Hawks looking to blow up the team after a 60 win season and ECF appearance
why? because they know they don't have a championship caliber roster
what the hell has this Bulls team done to not have that same out look?

How you handle it is still important. Clone and I earlier today we're talking about the Warriors 40 years of being impatient and being utterly stupid. They had many times up and coming teams but would blow it up immediately before development could even occur.
Now in the case of the hawks we have heard of them wanting to trade aging guys. They still need to tread carefully.

Marc Gasol out indefinitely with a broken foot.
Looks like we may now have a trading partner for Pau Gasol :thinking: .

they already were...it all comes down to the bulls FO having the balls/willingness to make a move for a change. I wouldn't get my hopes up

The Bulls are really going to need the Kings' pick because of how deep the wing position is. Getting a young and athletic two or three, and following that up with a young PG. Would be great. Right now Chicago's playing like a Lottery team, and man one could hope that they're start losing enough games to make that a reality and some how the Kings fall outside the top ten. In this draft, you might be able to land two starters going forward to have a young core of players to go along with Butler, Portis, Niko, and McDermott. I don't think Nko and McDermott are expendable they're cheap and can play out their contracts coming off the bench. Pao, Jo, Rose, Taj, Hinrich, Dunleavy, Snell, et al are all expendable. This team might need a near complete overhaul.

I agree but I go back to who is going to blw this thing up and has the knowledge to rebuild it? IF they had Jerry West or someone close to his IQ and insight, it'd be one thing but we have a couple of dueces while we need a pair of aces in the front office. Along with a cheap ass owner who hires yes boys as his management staff.
