If you take a big pay cut to joIn a team that’s already capable of winning it all without you, and has, you are essentially buying a trophy.

If they are all All-Stars, winning means less and no single player’s contribution matters that much. I wonder if any of the original, core Warriors would ever start to resent it. The entire run begins to look bogus.

You telling me signing him to something more than that wasn't worth it?

Or worse, he's probably petty that we didn't give him the $$$ and decided he's gonna make his money by balling out in the postseason and get paid next year after he wins a ring.

Do people seriously not appreciate the injury that boogie is coming off of?

Man, I really am sorry @all the Pels fans. This sucks.

I lost respect for KD because he went to GS. Now I’m beginning to lose respect for this whole era. This league’s stars have no problem forming these super teams. Taking lesser money makes them seem modest, to some.

Adam Silver has a problem on his hands. Tv ratings won’t show it. But how can I possibly be entertained watching this season unfold?

You gonna say cousins is one of their top 6 and hurt. When he isn’t healthy enough to play.

It's a low risk, supremely high reward move. But that risk is very legitimate

Pels gave up budman hield and that pick for half a season of cousins. Ouch.

Except it's an easy risk they can take. Jordan Bell can easily be their center until he's ready. I think Pachulia is still on the roster, but if not, they can go find someone

Agreed. But there's a very real chance boogie has absolutely no impact next year

Meanwhile, Lebron just went to the Western Conference with no other all star to join a 35 win team.

This is correct. Past achilles sufferers regressed significantly.
