Same ****, different toilet.
You can't compare Lebron to KD in saying that they did the exact same thing because the 2010 Heat were not contenders, the 2016 Dubs were absolutely contenders.

This re-writing of history
The summer of 2010 was not that long ago man. I mean, the LeBron decision thread is still on NT for Christ sakes. We all knew what was going to happen when LeBron joined a 27 year old D Wade and a 25 year old Chris Bosh in the Eastern Conference. The rest was just a formality.
Dudes literally said in 2010...."LeBron signing to Miami would make the NBA boring".

No amount of laughing emojis will make what they did the same
The heat were a championship team because of lebron, the Warriors were already a championship team before the 2nd best player decided to go there.
Done with the topic.

Kev Betawe hated on Lebby for it so why wouldn't we hate on KB for it? I plan to hate on the next top player that does it for that matterStill not understanding the KD hate
Lebron paved the way for these type of "Super Teams" by winning 2 rings in Miami.
LeBron continued this trend by adding Kevin Love when he came to Cleveland.
KD followed the blue print and did it wayyyyy better, savage style at that
These elite kids in high school teaming up in AAU, then going to Duke, UK, Kansas, etc. The super team trend will be here for a while bros.
You do realize you're typing "B" instead of "D" right?

Not 1, Not 2, Not 3.... the moment, he held that news conference 1 hour special.
He knew what he was positioning himself to get into. Let's not play stupid!

Lol people said that about Boston in 2007 before this AND about the Lakers in 2003.
The difference was that the Lakers were contenders but Boston was not. And even then the 2003 Lakers were nowhere near as good as the 2016 Dubs nor were Malone and GP anywhere near as good as KD.
This Warriors squad is a recipe for disaster for the league-the ratings for the Finals are going to tank.

His stats were on a "needs" basis, no stat padding, he wasn't chasing that triple double. Lebron got his and then sat out afterwards, he eased up. Safe zone shooting *** to protect his percentage, etc etc

Lol yes he was but he was saying he would TURN them into contenders who would win "not 1, not 2", etc.
KD joined a team that had already won and set the record for wins in professional basketball history.

I don't hate in that way. I do dislike his ways, and that goes back to OKC. I stayed on him for his poor attitude towards the media and beef stirring drama avocation here, too. Yes avocation not advocation, because it is a hobby for him it seems.

What are you talking about, the game was getting out of hand and lebron started launching stupid 3's, how is that trying to protect his percentage.

SO If KD goes about this series averaging a 30+ point triple double, while also guarding LBJ most of the game and being so effective on defense.. How is KD not the best player in the world starting right now.

The LeBron decision thread is pure gold. Especially the responses the moment he signed .

LeBron LEFT his team that had back 2 back 60+ wins to join a Super Squad, and even compromised salaries to make it work.
Like I said, he knew where he was going and what would come out of it.

Well the Heat were a 47 win team that added Mike Miller, Mike Bibby, Illgauskus, Bosh, Lebron, and Ray allen. Kind of hard to look at the record and be like "well they were only a 47 win team the year before" when they legit added a whole new team outside of Wade.
Had those players been in place already we would all be saying it is the same damn thing. Same end result, different circumstances. Here are the players added to that 2010 heat team:
[table][tr][th=""]Player[/th][th=""]Signed[/th][th=""]Former Team[/th][/tr][tr][td] [/td][td] [/td][td] [/td][/tr][tr][td]Chris Bosh[/td][td]Signed 6 Year Contract For $110.1 Million[/td][td]Toronto Raptors[/td][/tr][tr][td]LeBron James[/td][td]Signed 6 Year Contract For $110.1 Million[/td][td]Cleveland Cavaliers[/td][/tr][tr][td] [/td][td] [/td][td] [/td][/tr][tr][td]Mike Miller[/td][td]Signed 5 Year Contract For $25.0 Million[/td][td]Washington Wizards[/td][/tr][tr][td] [/td][td] [/td][td] [/td][/tr][tr][td]Žydrūnas Ilgauskas[/td][td]Signed 2 Year Contract For $2.8 Million[/td][td]Cleveland Cavaliers[/td][/tr][tr][td]Juwan Howard[/td][td]Signed 1 Year Contract For $1.35 Million[/td][td]Portland Trail Blazers[/td][/tr][tr][td] [/td][td] [/td][td] [/td][/tr][tr][td]Jerry Stackhouse[/td][td]Signed 1 Year Contract For $210,339[/td][td]Milwaukee Bucks[/td][/tr][tr][td]Erick Dampier[/td][td]Signed 1 Year Contract For $1.14 Million[/td][td]Charlotte Bobcats[/td][/tr][tr][td]Mike Bibby[/td][td]Signed 1 Year Contract For $450,727[/td][td]Washington Wizards[/td][/tr][/table]
And then they added Ray allen the following year. You cant just say well they only won 47 games the year before. That was a completely different team.
