SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 i said all time starting five. so they need to mesh. they need to gel. and they need to be able to shoot the trey. Link to post Share on other sites

SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 what are we thinking about Durant? if he joins the warriors i mean you can just cancel next season, but i'm kind of wondering if he doesn't do the smart thing and sign with the spurs. that would be awesome for rivalry.

SuperJon 175 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Why would they get him? They don't need him. Did they already forget what happened when the Heat and Cavs tried to put too many big names on the same team? Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 there was a report saying the warriors were the front runner. Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: didn't the Cavs as well? Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 yes, yes they did. the interesting thing out there today is this carmelo trade. Melo to the Cavs, K Love to Celts, and the brooklyn picks to NYK. that would be interesting, if nothing else, and for that reason i hope it happens. but it's gotta be a long shot.

David_Sklansky 1,903 Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I stay rooting for big transactions, just for entertainment. Melo has a no-trade clause, though, and has stated he's "not going anywhere" as recently as today. So I think he is being a party pooper on this one. Link to post Share on other sites
SuperJon 175 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Didn't the Heat make it to the NBA finals literally every year that team was together? Edit: didn't the Cavs as well? Lebron has been to 4 with the Heat (won 2), and 2 with the Cavs (won 0). These "super teams" can definitely make it to the Finals, but I think it's more due to the fact that the East has been so weak in recent years. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Lebron has been to 4 with the Heat (won 2), and 2 with the Cavs (won 0). These "super teams" can definitely make it to the Finals, but I think it's more due to the fact that the East has been so weak in recent years. 1) The first team lebron made it to the finals wasn't a super team. It was pretty much the opposite, other than any team Lebron's on is super. 2) The team he brought to the finals last year isn't what I'd call a super team either, and neither Irving nor Love played a minute in the finals, so I don't think Cleveland is really relevant in this discussion. I think Cleveland did make a mistake in giving up too much to pick up a player in Love that they don't use well at all. But, KD isn't Love and the warriors aren't cleveland. I'm sure the warriors can figure out a way to use KD effectively. And the Warriors wouldn't have to give up anything close to as meaningful as Wiggins, to get KD. So What did Miami learn about getting a super team? Winning two chips and four finals appearances? That's bad? You think they'd have done better without lebron and bosh and just doing it the right way through the draft? of course not. KD would make the warriors better. It's not a matter of do they NEED him.. is would he make them better, and he would unquestionably make them better. The only reason you don't do it, is out of some abstract fear about messing up the chemistry or something. That, as my man Dan Lebatard said, is just superstition. Link to post Share on other sites

I think that would tip the balance to the spurs favor. I can't see that happening, though. I think he'd stay in OKC. Stick with the dustbowl town that you know. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 he's not staying in OKC. they blew it when they traded harden. he'll be gone next year, then russ is off to the lakers. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I think he could sign a one year and then bolt with russ to the lakers. That's Simmons hot take, I think, and it seems plausible to me. Link to post Share on other sites

FCP Bob 1,312 Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Looked over tonight's schedule and saw something funny 76ers 9-64 GS 65-7 This has to be the latest matchup in a season where one team has single digit wins, and the other single digit losses That reminded me of the expansion Raptors beating a Championship Bulls team that was 60-7 twenty years ago but the Raptors were 17-49. http://www.raptorsrepublic.com/2016/03/24/tbt-20-years-ago-today-the-raptors-upset-the-72-10-bulls/ Link to post Share on other sites
