Why do the Warriors need this guy again?
They don't. He's now a shell of his former self after the foot surgeries
>>66492559
He's had a better career than Shit Curry, who had ankle injuries early in his career
>>66492660
durant hasnt even won a chip
To go 82-0
>>66492716
73 playoff games vs 41 playoff games
5 all star appearances vs 3 all star appearances
Please.
>>66492890
He's a has been, anyone with 2 eyes can see that. Even Isaiah is better than him now
>>66492917
>has been
>most coveted free agent of all time
k.
>>66492936
pls
>>66492936
>most coveted free agent of all time
That's 2010 Lebron James, you know, the guy who makes KD his bitch every time they play
I wonder, is the commissioner allowed to deny a FA from signing with a team?
>>66492953
>>66492957
That's why the Warriors are considering gutting their team for him, right?
I hope Durant goes to the Warriors and becomes a locker room cancer and makes it his team
>>66492890
Kobe Bryant: 220 playoff games
Michael Jordan: 179 playoff games
Kobe Bryant: 15 all star appearances
Michael Jordan: 13 all star appearances
Please.
>>66492981
CP3 can't sign with the lakeshow if thats what you're asking
>>66492996
I mean if Lebron and KD suddenly decided to sign with the Warriors could the Commish say No because it would make a super team?
>>66493017
They dont want any of those players. KD can play d, lebron is locker room cancer and old
>>66493017
I don't think so, he was allowed to intervene in the CP3 trade because the league literally owned the Hornets at that time
>>66492988
Most people put Kobe ahead of Jordan though
>>66493033
that isn't the point.
>>66493054
no they dont
So if Durant does go to the Warriors, would it become his team?
I can't seeing an Alpha like Durant handing it over to Curry just like that
>>66493071
>durant
>alpha
xd
>>66493054
No they don't. MJ was better at both ends of the floor.
>>66493071
stephen already said he doesnt want kd
>>66493087
Understandable, as that would bring Lil B's curse over to Golden State.
>>66493102
Lil B is a Warriors fan, he'd presumably lift it if KD was to join them
>>66493081
>>66493087
Why would it be Curry's team if Durant comes?
When LeBron went to MIA in 2010, it became his team even though Wade was still there
they dont need him and id be shocked if they clear out players to make space to sign him. i mean he could definitely fit the pace space/6SOL offensive mold theyve developed but theyd be replacing a very capable wing defender in barnes with a guy who plays next to zero defense. also theyd probably have to move bogut who is one of the best rim protectors in the league, ezeli is very capable defensively but bogut is on another level and is also a much improved outlet passer which facilitates their fast break heavy offense. not to mention i just dont think this team needs another volume scorer, curry and thompson are already the best shooting duo in the league and subtracting defense for offense at this point doesnt make much sense.
>>66493143
If KD came to GS he'd have to come off the bench, like PP
>>66493143
Because Lebron was a better player than Wade and Durant is not a better player than Curry
>>66493176
also also barnes is a pretty good rebounder for his size and his rpg numbers would go up if it werent for the fact that kerr likes to have him run the floor and have bogut or draymond suck up the boards and outlet. theres been a few close games where kerr has tossed HB onto deandre jordan/pachulia/other big rebounding centers and his positioning and box out form is terrific. barnes still has a lot of room to grow and is already very talented dont see much reason to get rid of him.
Its like the pats getting randy Moss I suppose.
If he goes to the Warriors it will cement that the NBA is the shittiest league in sports
>>66492660
3>2. Durant is playing like a star. Curry is playing like the GOAT.
>>66492404
Because sportscenter wants to jerk off to them to the point of bleeding next season
>>66493183
ok, LMA went to the Spurs and it became his team even though Kawhi is better
>>66493299
if he was the GOAT he would pick up DPOTY like MJ
>>66493325
Yeah Durant is a pussy.
>>66493325
Defense? This is the modern NBA. If you aren't 7 foot tall and can only make a living off the length of your arms or named Kawhi then defense doesn't matter.
Who wants to bet this will be like the Klay for Love trade, and HB takes a paycut to stay with GSW?
It would solidify Curry leaving gay land out of disgust
Durant would be dope as part of the 2nd unit though
>>66493346
>mfw Durant is 7 ft tall with long arms and couldn't even sniff DPoY
>>66493321
Kawhi scores more and takes more FG per game. It's still his team (although Spurs aren't really "someone's team")
>>66493135
>Lil B is a Warriors fan
bandwagon or oldschool?
>>66494688
No idea, but he is from the Bay Area so there's a chance he's oldschool
>>66492917
>>66492890
lol nah, Durant is a has-been and a never-was. Curry is literally the promise of Durant realized. KD is a team cancer with a shitty attitude and is very unlikeable.
>>66493143
You're definitely dumb as shit, it was ALWAYS wade's team
>>66493325
lol nah faggot
nobody considered DPOY Jordan as the GOAT
>>66493054
>>66494962
he won the award. Do you not acknowledge this? Even Kwahi was DPOY
>>66495013
Yeah, he won it in the 80s when people still considered Magic to be the GOAT. It wasn't final form Jordan. You have to be a top top top tier athlete to compete for DPOY, Curry isn't that guy, you might as well ask him to win the slam dunk competition and you're only holding him to this standard because you're a butthurt hater.
>>66495071
>Yeah, he won it in the 80s when people still considered Magic to be the GOAT.
literally noone was saying this
>final form
he won the award. Steph hasnt won it, probably will never win because he only cares about one end of the court
> Curry isn't that guy, you might as well ask him to win the slam dunk competition
Even a 5'9 Isaiah dunks better then 6'3 steph.
>>66495158
Literally everyone was saying this up until 91-92. You weren't born yet so please don't even bother replying faggot.
>>66492986
Do you have a single fact to back that claim up?
>>66495071
You're a dick riding pleb that can't even recognize the greatness of MJ because of and stupendous ignorance of the highest order.
Don't ever compare Curry to MJ again. Curry is almost 30 and has been great for a year. People wouldn't even compare them last year but bandwagon casuals like you are blinded by ignorance and refuse to see the light. Until he has as many accolades, is proven as good on both ends as Jordan, he cannt be compared.
Kobe has earned a right to be compared, Curry is a cog in precise machine of a team, not a player that can lift a team to greater heights by himself like LeBron.
If it weren't for Klay and Draymond picking up slack for off meme shooting, the Warriors wouldn't be close to the record.
Curry's greatest weapon, and the one that defines him is meme shooting. This aspect completely overshadows his whole game and makes it him great, If you take that from him he's an average PG. There is no one thing you can take away from MJ because he was great in every aspect of a guard and then some. MJ was a complete player that dominated completely and that's why he along with Muhammad Ali are recognized as the greatest Athletes in American, and even some say, world history.
>>66495208
Cool pasta.
>>66495199
Please, I thought you wanted to have a rational discussion, but obviously you dont
>>66495223
>le tl;dr type of reply
Glad to see you're the idiot I knew you to be.
Thanks for proving it to everyone else.
>>66495227
Just explaining what the world was like before you were born. Don't be mad.
>>66492404
Because harrison barnes fucking sucks
>>66495237
Oh, you really wrote out that seven stages of mad wall of text in sincerity? Seek help autist.
>>66495243
I'm most likely older than you, kid
>>66495270
Literally zero chance. You and I both know you have no idea what you're talking about, and now you're trying to save face in front of anonymous strangers. Pathetic, and something a child would do.
>>66495293
If I were GSW, I'd rather build around Durant than Curry
>>66495358
>I'd rather build around a born loser and locker room cancer
>>66495372
>scoring champion
>MVP
>loser
>>66495415
>NBA champion
>Finals mvp
>DPOY
neither curry nor kd have all these badges
>>66493054
>>66493232
He went 1/8 on threes and 2/4 on free throws in the clutch against Utah
His offensive game has *almost* completely abandoned him
I still favor keeping the team together rather than breaking it up for Durant, but only as long as Barnes continues to play top tier defence
Also some retard will probably give him the max which might render this whole discussion moot
>>66493361
It'll be exactly like that
However something to remember is that Barnes rejected an extension last fall
I think he's tired of playing basically 7th man as a starter and wants his own chance to make something of himself, if someone gives him an offer if I was him I'd leave, nothing else to prove staying in Oakland
>>66492986
>On pace to be the greatest team of all time
>gut that perfect team for one player
literally how stupid are you?
