Sounds like Klay needs a therapist. He's gonna get cooked in Dallas. The fans love Luka. They don luh you like that goofy.

Dont remember any beef between them either. Except Tony sleeping with some teammate's wife?

Sorta, had TP dirty macking on teammates and the run basically ended when TP publicly questioned Kawhi's recovery time and willingness to play hurt

Got caught up on the Simmons/Wildes podcast. Bill straight up forgetting Jordan played on the Wizards was some primo stuff. Also, he forgot Tony Parker played for the Hornets. He's losing his fastball.

Why does it seem that in every dynasty, outside of Miami, the stars didn't like each other

It’s just like a typical job, classroom, etc. you’re not going to happy hour with certain people or hanging out with certain folks outside of work. I’m sure most of us have played sports on some level and have many teammates who we disliked. Only got along for the greater good of the team

Don't act grown now lil bro

I really wish Kemba got drafted to a different organization.

7 years in Charlotte and Al Jeff/Batum/Lin was the best MJ & Co could do. Missing in the draft all the time

Then he lost the cartilage in his knee.

He was one of the most underrated shows in the league. Had the ball on a string like Kyrie

So Nuggets aint doing nothing this off season?

Also, when you build through drafts (as the Warriors did), it's not like Steph, Klay and Dray were all buddies. They just ended up working together. It's not unlike how the Seahawks imploded when money and egos got in the way. The Seahawks built their Super Bowl team through excellent drafting, but when things went sideways, it fell off a cliff. Still, Richard Sherman and Kam own a restaurant together that opened last year. It wasn't all bad.

Edit: I should add that the OG Thunder squad was like this. Durant, Westbrook and Harden (and Ibaka) were all drafted in a row., so it's not like they colluded to make that team. They rose up quick, then traded Harden, and eventually Durant realized he just wasn't going to win with Westbrook as a sidekick. It's nobody's fault, really. The team made one decision, their star made another. They just came close and it never worked out. As OP said, I do not envision a world where Durant and Westbrook were grabbing postgame drinks after games. Maybe they did. I dunno. But there was a clear disconnect at a certain point, and it flared up in that 2016 WCF. They completely fell apart the last two games after destroying the Warriors for multiple games.

Do you know who their owner is

 

[MVP]

 

[dacomeup]

Great hires to replace what they loss

 

[Benny Hinn]

Wardell couldn't even make a post about Klay on his IG Grid? Had to relegate it to a post that will be gone in 24hrs? Nasty work

 

[dacomeup]

Still feel like those private schools can do whatever they want. See Duke.

Vandy doesn’t take athletics nearly as serious as Duke. Apples and oranges

Happy Spida is here but we have to move Garland and Allen/Mobley, Garland and Spida don’t work well, and Allen/Mobley the same
