2020-21 NBA Offseason thread: Officially a wrap

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Who actually said Steph has to prove anything tho? All Public Enemy said was he expects him to make the playoffs and get to the 2nd round. What's so crazy about that. Steph's only 32. Nobody's legacy is finished at that point

 

[ill steelo]

High expectation should be expected and I totally agree he needs to ball out especially after missing last season,, but players like Bron,KD,Steph don’t have anything to prove.

Older players have always had to prove they’re still elite look at Bron captioning everything with #WashedKing

Guys coming off serious injury also want to show that they can still go.

Their legacies are intact, you can’t question anything that they did in the past, solidified. But what are they today? Right now? You always have had to prove that. The god himself, MJ, in the Wizards comeback had to show how much he still had from ‘98. Turns out the 30 ppg days were gone forever. Best player of all time, sure. He was nowhere near the best player in the league in ‘02 or ‘03

Another example would be anyone still putting Durant in their top 5. Of course he once was top 5, top 2-3 even. In this very moment? I don’t know. We don’t know what he can still do and what he can’t do anymore. If he’s not still a significantly better scorer than Kyrie, then that Nets team is not going far.

Man said Steph had to live up to the talk. Live up to what *****? He's been living it up since 2015
Breaking kayfabe for a sec, Bron didn't have to live up to anything in 2019. Even missing the playoffs he's still Lebron James.
MJ didn't have to live up to anything on the Wizards. KD aint got to live up to anything.
If you got a ring, an MVP award and/or a Finals MVP, you good for life.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

If Steph misses the playoffs the rest of his career that won't hurt his legacy? If he gets a finals MVP that wouldn't strengthen it?

 

[Public Enemy]

I sincerely apologize for mentioning Steph

I'll go back to being 1 of the 3 people posting his shoes in the Curry 8 thread

Carry on. Where were we - ah yes, Kawhi. Kawhi is the one with the expectations.

If he falls on his face like it was looking like last season, that ain't a good look for Wardell at all.

That's different from saying Steph has to live up to having a signature shoe line
Like imagine looking at Wade on the Cavs and being like, "It's time for him to live up to the talk and earn his sig shoe"
Legacy has largely been made. There's nothing to live up to. We're not talking about 07 Dirk here

Y’all REALLY acting like the OG post wasn’t wild

Cmon man. Just say y’all don’t **** with shorty, and keep it moving. It wasn’t in the light y’all twisting it too.

Idk why it gets so weird, when talking about Steph. It’s wild.

Not much tbh. 20+ ppg. 5-9 seed cuz Draymond washed and Wiggins is Wiggins.
Lot of heavy lifting some nights but I don't see him having a signature season. Them days are over.

Nate Rob vs Jake Paul starting up.

 

[antidope]

A season of no consequence? GSW should just burn down the entire principle of the franchise and create a system solely designed to get Steph a triple double season. Those are Teflon I hear. Can't be questioned.

Once a Knick Always a Knick

Nate wearing Knick colors was a bad omen.

 

[dman14]

This lets you know all that being bad in that Mardy Collins brawl years ago was just a bunch of smoke...
