Good debate, regardless. Not as much fun as yesterday but more worth while.

People keep saying "winning in NY" will make players a bigger star than winning elsewhere. There is zero proof of this. The last time there was a superstar winning in New York, the world and culture around superstars and endorsements was so different, that you cannot definitively say that in todays day it makes a difference. Cant compare how superstars were treated in the 90s to how they are now.

Chris Paul was making 4 mil a year in endorsements his last year in New Orleans. He was at 8.5 last year with the Clippers.
Melo was at 5-6 million his last year in Denver. He has been at 8 in New York.

I can see Thabo, Justin Holiday, PJ Tucker fitting in well with GSW. Pat Mccaw should improve. Iggy is very important to what makes GSW a force.
Joe Ingles a reasonable replacement? I think iggy will resign though.

How much of this is attributable to the social media climate change since these two have moved?

Damn Bogdan signed with the Kings for 3 years 36 mill. Glad Dario said his "word meant more than paper" and came over after two years and took the rookie scale paycut

Social media changed in 1 year? Melo was at 5-6 pre Knicks, his 1st year with New York he goes up to 8.
Same with Chris Paul the year prior to going to LA he was at 4. 2012 he went to 6. And has continued to build his brand since. There wasn't that much social media revolution in a year to account for that.

Again, Chris Paul is the biggest example right now of it. He was great in New Orleans and great in L.A.
He wasn't doing state farm commercials in New Orleans, if DJ was playing in Portland, do you think he would be in those commercials?
Social media is the grand equalizer right? But everyone isn't on social media.
There are certain stars that transcend...lbj, curry, Durant, Westbrook etc. Maybe it doesn't apply to them much.
Let's assume the lbj to L.A. rumors are true. Why on earth would he want to come to L.A.? He's in a better basketball situation than both L.A.teams right now. He's the top off court earner in the NBA and has been for a long time. So, what's his motivation? Playing with the homies? You can go anywhere to play with the homies right?
If L.A. Isn't what it is along with nyc, why don't they call up mj, tell him to start clearing cap space, and all the homies can just go play in Charlotte. Right?

Social media isn't the same as it was in 2010 and 2011 when they made those career moves.
That's what I'm saying.
