Anderson Varejao could sign with the Warriors with Bogut and Ezeli ailing.

They're so good with the small line ups that I seriously doubt Andy's going to play much, even if Bogut and Ezeli are both down for a while. But I guess adding the depth doesn't hurt.
 
"positions are for the novice to follow the gm" -jalen rose

but seriously, he was a 4/5


andy varajo may win a chip :lol:

People came out for Kareem's farewell tour and he wasn't exactly Mr. Excitement out there on the court by the time he hung it up. Still, I agree with you that a Duncan retirement tour would not be the spectacle that Kobe's is.
 
Spurs had the most dominant finals performance ever and all anybody could talk about was lebron. Just imagine if duncan announced his retirement in the same season as kobe :rofl:

kareem was the face of the nba for many years and played for the leagues most exciting and successful team for a decade

when he retired he was considered the GOAT

duncan just doesnt have the same level of popularity among both fans and players that kobe does

only kobe and lebron are able to have farewell tours, the benefits of being a superstar

Also, IIRC, it was much less common back in those days for people to play into their late 30s/40s, so the sheer length of Kareem's career made his retirement a bigger deal. But being the game's all-time leading scorer, etc. helped too
 
alltime scoring leader

6 championships (went to the finals 10 times)

19 time all star

6 MVPs

GOAT CBB player 

kareem's career >>>>> MJ

Adrian Wojnarowski doesn't believe the Los Angeles Lakers are a legitimate potential free agent destination for Kevin Durant.

Wojnarowski's reporting has indicated the Golden State Warriors are the favorites for Durant should he decide to leave the Oklahoma City Thunder. Stephen A. Smith has reported about the possibility of the Lakers being in play for Durant.

"The Lakers are not front-runners for Kevin Durant, he wants to win a championship," said Wojnarowski. "If he leaves Oklahoma, he may end up staying there and I've written that. Golden State is a team that is worrisome for Oklahoma City -- that's a team that has Kevin Durant's attention. Kevin Durant wants to win a championship right away and either he wants to do that in Oklahoma City with the group they have or he's going to go somewhere where he can win a title right away.

"Kevin Durant doesn't care if they have the first pick, the second pick, third pick; no free agent cares. No free agent of his stature cares what draft pick a team has because that guy is not going to help them win championships in the next two or three years. And if Kevin Durant leaves Oklahoma, he wants to be ready to win a championship right away. He's at a point in his career where he can't wait two or three years and hope that it happens. I think part of his criteria, sources tell me, will be, 'Is that team good enough to beat Golden State with me on it? Or is it Golden State? Or can I stay in Oklahoma and continue to be able to do that and compete for a championship?

"Listen, I just don't think that the Lakers are a real significant factor for Kevin Durant."
