At the time Westbrook was one of the top 5 players in the league, which was the reason why the two of them had the Warriors on the ropes.

It's only cool if it works.

ZERO people want to play with Russ. Zero.

Fear.

Fear of failure.

Yeah, no. He failed. He failed over and over on a team that continued to ship off its best pieces/his best friends. He gave OKC NINE years and then left to play with much better teammates in a much better organization. Who wouldn't want to do that?

It’s pretty obvious that Westbrook didn’t know who the better play was on that team, and I completely understood why KD left and said it “at the time”. Westbrook has always been the same guy, he just doesn’t have the best player in the league next to him anymore.

Durant wanted easy rings to build his legacy up.

Yeah I'm sure you were saying the same thing when Neil Smith went to the Broncos.

There is nothing wrong w what CP3 did. They arent friends and they don't play on the same team. They don't like each other and never have. Who cares if he didnt want him shooting around on the court CP3 was going to be on. That doesnt make CP3 an 'asshole.'

As far as MJ, you need leaders to call people out. MJ took it too far sometimes but that's where being a man and sticking up for yourself goes a long way.

Durant is a sports cuck

He's actually not. NBA guys call him three greatest out of the offense scorer in league history. He gets his points in a very specific fashion. He's also the third best player on his team. Klay is 90 percent as good offensively while being twice the defender and more durable.

I missed the part where he signed with the Celtics instead of the Heat or the Spurs instead of the Cavs or the Warriors over the Lakers.

Lol where the lines are drawn and the revisionist history of Lebron defenders/fans is hilariously convenient.

They’re both bitches.

Durant just beat him at his own bitch game.

The Heat has already won a championship, were a conference rival, and 3 of the top 5 players in the East teamed up together in their primes. The rest is semantics.

That Heat team at the time was hyped as potentially the GOAT.

Apparently the NBA and the Warriors didnt get the memo because they list Steph as a PG. Maybe they'll make that correction when they list the Warriors lineup in the next round.



Always nice to see true rivalries but I dont think Steph-CP3 beef makes the NBA the best... NBA is my second favorite sport but it's ridiclous how soft the league is nowadays.

So you think Draymond is a center, then.

He and Westbrook are both guards.
