Mother frick. If so, he should catch more flack than LBJ got in 2010 imo. That would be like Lebron joining the Celtics right after getting bounced


Seriously? Yeah, if he holds a special event to announce his decision. Yeah, if he was leaving his hometown team, oh wait. And he should catch flack for going to his best option to winning a title?

If we get Dwight I have to think we keep Al as well

Well technically, he shouldn't.

But we didn't afford that same luxury to others.

Say we get Howard and keep Al then do we try and play Millsap at 3 or move him? That's the only potential problem I see. There's always the possibility of a sign and trade of Horford too.

If LeBron didn't do that whole take talents to South Beach thing I don't think he would have got 80 percent of the hate he did get. Like it or not, that was a poor marketing move to do that weird Decision.

I love the nope response without any backing. How is that roster not better than what Boston is providing? He's a perfect fit for us. I know he's not considering but I'm just saying that roster wise, it'd be a great move for him. I'd love for you to disagree intelligently if you somehow can.

Wait how is horford listed above whiteside on that list? Any thoughts on that Lester earl?

Will anyone throw money at Drummond? Or is it not worth it being that the Pistons will probably match anything

Maybe I'm nuts but I'm not convinced Durant is much of a difference maker on Golden State as others may think. I believe he is a net positive, but it's not as big as some think IMO.

There are only so many shots to go around, and we've seen that time and time again with guys like Bosh and Kevin Love in these stacked rosters.

The biggest impact of Durant to GS is that he effectively rubber stamps GS to the Finals because he wouldn't be with the Thunder or Spurs. It would be a huge deal because those teams are worse off, not so much because the Warriors are significantly better.

In all honesty, they should be going after a young rim protector (Whiteside, re up Ezeli). Somehow get rid of Bogut and resign Barnes. Use the rest of the available dollars on replenishing the bench. Their biggest issue was the boards, not shooting imo

This probably sounds crazy but Dwight Howard would be a perfect fit for GS if he embraced the role of rim protector and 3rd/4th option on offense imo.
