I'll keep you in my thoughts.

6ers should sweep the Celtics. They can't keep up with the 6ers offense.

And they don't have Avery and Crowder out there

Things Kobe could never do

 

[shotsrangout]

Seems like playing him would be a bit too risky...

Just let him play. He's a young fella. He can rest in the summer

On this day in NBA history

They aint playing no god damn game 7 of the NBA finals in April any year ever. ****

 

[atlsfinest]

What do the Warriors do cap wise? Draymond and Klay are both eligible for the supermax. Klay is a UFA after next year and Draymond is a UFA in 2020. Teams can only have two player signed to the supermax on their roster and they already have one. From the looks of things, they won't even have enough money to offer either of them a regular max contract.



Lacob pay that ridiculous luxury tax bill going forward? Do they preemptively trade one of them? Are we just assuming they'll both take deep pay cuts. I know the Warriors players are known for their selflessness but making $15-20m/year when you're eligible to make $40m/year would be a tough pill to swallow.

This y'all GOAT though

Klay talks all that ******** but he will be in a Knicks jersey after his contract expires

Klay and Mark jack reunited

[tekthemaestro]

The dude won 42-43 games this year with an *** roster. In 2009-2010 season he won 47 games with D. Wade and Chalmers was probably the 2nd best player on that team. The dude is an elite coach. If you disagree that's fine.

im starting to think you dont remember that the east was more balanced back then compared to the trash it is now with 3 strong teams. the *** roster the heat have now, is actually competitive compared to the current hawks, and orlando, bulls, nets, knicks, hornets, and pistons. 76ers are easily top 3 in the east and had to fight it out. if you think thats cuz of coaching... you're delusional. but... youre also entitled to your opinion.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Dray was talking like he already knows he's gone

 

[niceshoes247]

That block, that 3pt

 

[Lovetohate3000]

So Westbrook was crying and throwing a tantrum cause a fan told him how's your ankles. What a cry baby. Like Westbrook to start barking over nothing.
Even when it happened. Westbrook don't get the benefit of the doubt from me when it comes to interactions with fans after the Philly and Dallas altercations.

This y'all GOAT though

Mich0/3L

Can someone change that to Finals records?

 

[nycknicks105]

I dont think Draymond leaves the team, because he knows he needs Steph and Durant to do what he does best.

Klay on the other hand may be willing to leave, especially if he's looking at a bigger payday.

Might be the only way Lebron wins again, if the Warriors split up and losses either Klay or Dray.

 

[Lovetohate3000]

I'd rather keep klay then Draymond.

By 2020 Lebron will be declining big time. The 19-20 season will be his 17th season.

I would think Draymond is more valuable than a spot up shooter

He does way more than Klay. You can literally replace Klay with a 3 and long d guy even though they won't be as efficient

I'll believe it when I see it. He just put up 3 40 point games this series in his 15th season.

Or when he joins the Warriors next year.
