Dwyane Wade could join LeBron James in Cleveland after Kevin Durant decided to team-up with the Golden State Warriors.
Speculations around the league have Wade joining James and the Cleveland Cavaliers following Durant's shocking decision of forming a super-team with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green in the Bay Area.
2017 NBA MVP
>>69260969
I hope Kyrie could learn how to play defense with Wade.
He really seems like the 2nd coming of Wade
>>69260988
nice luck step
>some espn retards think lakers should trade for westbrook
Lord blazerus please aid us in this war the memoirs have started and lay a curse on the traitor of the BTC that is Kevin Durant
Godspeed everyone
>>69260992
who is that gooey gal
how much money do you think gilbert is giving wade under the table to sign with the cavs for the minimum
hes an expert in shady stuff being a loan shark and everything
>>69261002
do not want
>>69260988
Is Austin Rivers good now? I didn't watch much Cloppers. He was pretty terrible in New Orleans, he looked like a d-league scrub.
What would it take for Durant's image to recover from this legacy suicide? Would you forgive him if he went on to win 5 rings?
>you now realize the reason chinks and gooks love the warriors is because they can't grow facial hair like curry
>>69260931

thank you so much
>>69261027
He has his moments
>>69261032
he would have to go somewhere after the Warriors and win a ring as "the guy" whether it's Washington or back to OKC or wherever.
otherwise he is Clyde Drexler 2.0

Oh shit I remember this game HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
>durcant getting BTFO by rivers and crawford
>memeoirs literally think this is an upgrade over losing bogut and barnes
>>69261045
Why do they look so serious. I mean I like cute anime girls too but these ones just do nothing for me. Just badly designed overall.
>>69261043
She's a cold-blooded murderer.
I actually don't mind Durant going to GSW. It's just going to prove how overrated Curry is because by the end of the season KD will have better stats than Curry.
>>69261027
He's streaky, but he's good as a second unit PG/SG. I wouldn't go anything beyond that
>>69260969
It's not huge news to me because Wade is older now and always needs days off to rest. But he's still damn good and if you replace Delly with Wade that's easily an upgrade
>>69261080
One of them is going to be proven as a fraud and it's just a matter of who is going to be the ball handler.
What did he mean by this?
>>69261048
Lebron > Durant
Kyrie = Curry
Wade < Thompson (only because of age)
>>69261068
Lel he took a SHIT on Foye the whole game
>>69261069
They look serious because they're fighting bad guys

Watch this and see how fucked is the Warriors if Wade joins Cavs
>>69261094
>kyrie = curry
No.
The finals proved Curry can't hold a candle to Kyrie.
He's come along way
Apologize.

So is this what /a/'s settled on as AOTS?
>>69261111
Kek, this was some lulzy shit when it happened live.
>>69261089
It's Curry. You don't really think Curry is better than KD do you?
>>69261110
Curry should thank the meme gods that Kyrie got injured in game 2 last year. They probably would have beat the Warriors even without Love
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABJhwZq4u70
>>69261119
This anime came out over a year ago.
AOTS is definitely
>>69261110
Not true.
I said it all year even though people called me retarded for even comparing Kyrie to Curry.
Kyrie and Curry are about the same player who are slightly better at different things.
Kyrie is a good 3pt shooter with superior handles and finishing through contact
Curry is a super 3pt shooter with good handles and struggles at finishing in real contact.
They are essentially the same player. I've always valued Kyrie higher because he steps up when the lights are brightest and Curry doesn't, but this is the exact same opinion that people were telling me I was a retard for having earlier in the season because all ya'll were saying Kyrie was fucking garbage at the game and injury prone and he couldn't hold a candle to curry.
So I don't wanna hear it from you bandwagon cunts in the aftermath.

>>69261151
Remember how people hated MWP for this, back when the Thunder were the darlings the way the Warriors are now?
In hindsight he should have hit Harden even harder.

>>69261119
What anime is it and for which season? The Spring season was complete garbage and Summer looks just as disappointing, even Shokugeki no Souma S2 which I thought would have no problems is getting a rushed adaptation. Bad time to be an anime fan and I'm not even one of those people that thinks all new anime sucks. 2011-2014 was the Golden Age in my opinion. 2016 is just trash.

THIRD WORLD SAFE ZONE THREAD
POST AWAY DARKIE MANLETFRIENDS
>>69261191
Durant is THAT much of a choke artist. He has no westgod and bench harding to carry him on the memeoirs.
>>69261171
ron artest is just as bad as KD imo, Lakers beat the Rockets in 2009 with a referee shit fest, then he shows up to the 2009 finals at a lakers game and signs with the lakers in the offseason.
Him and KD are both cuck faggots, and yeah that elbow was a fucked up move. NBA players should be thankful his mentally unstable ass is out of the NBA. But on the flipside now they have to make sure to wear reinforced cups thanks to draymond green
What does this mean for the back-to-back MVP?
Only good things. Warriors adviser Jerry West reportedly told Durant that playing with the Splash Brothers would make his life easier, but that's equally true the other way around. Even with all of Golden State's firepower, opponents often chose to trap Curry and make his teammates beat them. Green is incredible making plays when the Warriors have a 4-on-3 advantage and Thompson has added a lot to his offensive arsenal in the past few years, but neither of them is the kind of guy that terrifies entire defenses when he has the ball in his hands. Durant is.
Maybe Curry won't average 30 points again. I doubt he cares about that, or about if people look at it as his team or Durant's team. He's not a selfish player, and he's probably about to have the most efficient season of his life. Given that he just had a 50-45-90 year, that is saying something.
did someone say meme magic is real?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHSAHAHAHAHAHAHhahahahahahahHAaJAJhajHAKshadigIAUHYDGEw;fy.ds
>>69261203
Yeah can't wait to see him fuck the game and system with his iso-ball. And he's no Lebron when it comes to passing. That's a lot of height on the wings though, you got 6'10 Thompson on one end and Durant on the other, tough to defend 3's
>>69261216
>Maybe Curry won't average 30 points again. I doubt he cares about that, or about if people look at it as his team or Durant's team. He's not a selfish player, and he's probably about to have the most efficient season of his life. Given that he just had a 50-45-90 year, that is saying something.
This is especially true. In the last thread, someone said a reporter saying something about Curry not caring about the spotlight, and only rings.
>>69261180
Do you think he's ever told a ref "Don't ever talk to me or my wife's son"
who else super comfy that their team didn't waste resources this FA period?
where does westbrook end up? which mega team?
>>69261231
How many people say this man are you kidding me.
The only ones who don't want it are the ones who will never have it or are too autistic to care i.e. Klay.
>/nba/ is so shook and autistic that they're literally shaking trying to find reasons to shitpost
The anger is real and hilarious.
>inb4 it was 3-1, we all know it was rigged so Cleveland could finally win and not implode.

>>69261237
Clippers once CP3 goes off and joins Lebron's superteam
This has been by far the most challenging few weeks in my professional life. I understood cognitively that I was facing a crossroads in my evolution as a player and as a man, and that it came with exceptionally difficult choices. What I didn’t truly understand, however, was the range of emotions I would feel during this process.
The primary mandate I had for myself in making this decision was to have it based on the potential for my growth as a player — as that has always steered me in the right direction. But I am also at a point in my life where it is of equal importance to find an opportunity that encourages my evolution as a man: moving out of my comfort zone to a new city and community which offers the greatest potential for my contribution and personal growth. With this in mind, I have decided that I am going to join the Golden State Warriors.
I’m from Washington, D.C. originally, but Oklahoma City truly raised me. It taught me so much about family as well as what it means to be a man. There are no words to express what the organization and the community mean to me, and what they will represent in my life and in my heart forever. The memories and friendships are something that go far beyond the game. Those invaluable relationships are what made this deliberation so challenging.
It really pains me to know that I will disappoint so many people with this choice, but I believe I am doing what I feel is the right thing at this point in my life and my playing career.
I will miss Oklahoma City, and the role I have had in building this remarkable team. I will forever cherish the relationships within the organization — the friends and teammates that I went to war with on the court for nine years, and all the fans and people of the community. They have always had my back unconditionally, and I cannot be more grateful for what they have meant to my family and to me.
not going to lie i cried when i read this
>>69261235
With Spurs being my home team, it's so-so
All this talk about KD and how he has no loyalty y'all foolish let someone say here go some millions and a chance to win a ring y'all men will pack your bags in 2 secs, buy your mother a house, leave ol girl, and buy 2 new cars. STOP THE MADNESS THAT MAN IS DOING WHATS BETTER FOR HIM YALL NOT PAYING NOT ONE OF HIS BILLS.....
>>69261263
>I’m from Washington, D.C. originally, but Oklahoma City truly raised me.
>fuk dat doe im goin to san fagcisco to chase me a ring!
now that +Harrison Barnesisn't on the Warriors anymore i must find a new favorite player on the team, i'll start taking applications during preseason and hopefully be the end of the first week but definitely by end of month ill have a new favorite player. one member #35need not apply.
i will be excited for every time Dallas comes to Golden state to Barnes come back though, he did a lot in the community and was always open to the fans during season ticket holder events. thank you for the autographs every time.
Hopefully they dont lose Livingston, or maybe i roll with Green or maybe one of the new rookies.
>>69261263
You really think that cuck wrote that shit? His agent wrote a nice story.
>>69261268
>Could have played with Lebron
>Chooses gay bay
>Gets cucked out of a ring anyway
I guess it's what Nike wanted though so you can't put all the blame on him
>>69261284
Livingston is staying for at least one more year. I'd hate to see barbosa go though, he's one of my favorite bench pieces.
>>69261288
>average nba bust
As much as I want to see Wade sign with my Bucks, I'd just love to see another lob from him to LeBron again. Also, I don't think signing Wade will be enough to beat this overpowered Warriors team.
>>69261250
>inb4 it was 3-1, we all know it was rigged
no your anger is real and hilarious.
>>69261288
dam this shit is embarrassing when you read it alongside his fake ass "next step" article
>>69261309
If Wade came off the bench and Barbosa follows Bogut and Barnes out the door, the Cavs' second unit would potentially be better than the Warriors'. That could be enough for victory; it's how the Spurs would beat teams in the playoffs for a while.
seriously how do you beat this team? the worst player is a finals mvp!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Who else thought the memeoirs were finally slain
I was happy at the lack of Warriors shitposting and this shit had to happen
Now we have to hear >"Could they beat the 96 bull" "are they the best team ever"
> for another. Fucking. Season
It's bad enough my team sucks ass right now but this is just insult to injury
>>69261288
nah, KD dictated something and then it was heavily edited.
of course his agent or publicist obviously set it up
it's a hollow fluff piece apologizing for something he does not feel the least bit of remorse for and in reality he shouldn't. Players have to maintain the illusion of loyalty otherwise their brand is devalued.
>>69261345

Is there any chance that Durant can change his mind and go back to OKC? I refuse to believe this is true and it's making life very hard to cope with.
>>69261345

>>69261345
>draymond green at center
He'll get bullied by actual centers and give up 25ppg.
>>69261399
theoretically, and he's so mentally fragile that he is one of the few players you believe could do it
but realistically, no chance in hell
>>69261375
>Obviously
There's no way in hell he's 6'9, he's 6'11 I would say. I don't know why they list him at 6'9 though

@69261387
don't at me.
>>69261399
I doubt it. Nike has decided it's Golden State for him
>>69261409
But draymond has played center during a lot of games, including during the finals.

The reason MJ dropped him off to be raised by white people is so that he gets to keep more money
>>69261442
I don't listen or pay attention to someone with the name Tyrone.
>"Durant joining Steph, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green would give Golden State four of the top 12 current best players in the league, according to Simmons, which might make them the best team of all time"
what did he mean by this
>>69261421
>>69261422
Draymond always being a center would expose him for his lack of height for the position.
Any decent center/power forward with a post game will shit all over the donkey.
>not filtering shit-tier trips

>>69261464
Good thing most the NBA is devoid of a traditional center.
>>69261460
Because for a team to be good you need more than raw talent, you need chemistry to make it work.

>Any decent center/power forward with a post game will shit all over the donkey.

Durant is listed at 6'9 because that's his height. He was measured in college. That's without shoes though, and most players' "measurements" are with their shoes on. Udonis Haslem is listed at 6'9 but he's clearly 6'7 barefoot. Lebron is probably the same. Shoe measurements are bullshit imo

>Warriors fags think this is a good lineup

>>69261709
I have pair of shoes that add maybe .5 inch to my height. I have another pair that easily give me 2 inches. Who knows which of those two a player was wearing when he was measured? But barefoot height is always the same, accurate and precise. What's the point of even listing heights if they're not accurate? Everybody knows they wear shoes when playing anyway, people just assume the listed height is their true height, like when they go to the doctor and get measured. Doctor asks you to take your shoes off right?

Can you honestly blame Durant? What else was he supposed to do? Finish almost first with a bum foot every year while Westbrook plays hero ball for muh honor?
Surprised the commissioner didn't hop in like the CP3 trade. Times changed
>>69261572
>It's just not fun to watch anymore
Watching Lebron get a free ride to the ECF year after year has never been fun. The fact that people are so deluded they've only NOW gotten sick of the NBA is a testament to how brainwashed some of you faggots are.
Even if KD stayed in OKC a year and left the follow year, possibly with Westbrook there would be bitching and salt regardless, but only if they went to a shit team. That people are shitting all over themselves because he went to the 73-9 Warriors is pure insanity, because there's nothing to suggest that him doing this guarantees a championship and will only make the other teams play even harder, during the regular season, to beat this team, the same way every single team in the league (with the exception of the Cockshits), played their asses off last season in hopes of ruining GS' historic regular season.
>>69261522
Hey retard. Base God lifted the curse already. If KD shits the bed there's no one to blame but him. Alternately, Westbrook won't be able to sit on his ass in OKC and let KD soak up all the blame when they have shit games now.
>>69261992
Silver interfering with an FA signing would be unprecedented iirc
>>69261971
distant? more like from the stone-age. desu bill russells rings shouldnt count in celtic arguments.
>Can you honestly blame Durant?
yes
>>69261992
the thunder had golden state beaten, twice, until both westbrook and durant decided they no longer wanted to win. Hell they arguably have a better team and future prospects too.
>>69261992
It's not an issue with going to the Warriors, it's an issue of going to the team who just daddicked you when you were up 3-1
If the Spurs destroyed the Thunder last season instead of the Warriors, KD would be a bitch for going to the Spurs
The unique fact is that the most hated team last season and the team that spanked him is one and the same. KD deserves to be hated, and I hope he never wins a ring desu
>>69261995
>will only make the other teams play even harder, during the regular season, to beat this team, the same way every single team in the league (with the exception of the Cockshits), played their asses off last season in hopes of ruining GS' historic regular season.

Westbrook will finally unlock his full potential without KD holding him back and will become Beastbrook, surpassing even Jordan

none of the warriors success can be attributed to anyone but jerry west. they are all headless cucks otherwise, jerry west is a maestro and made the best lakers team
i believe he has one more team left in him to make great before he dies. hes probably tired of this warriors nonsense soon.

I don't think he's going to bust. If embiid is healthy. Sixers are going to be good.

>>69262135
Yeah, I dont see any brilliance on the warriors management besides attracting Jerry West. They still wallowed in misery when they had this championship team before 2015.
>>69262144
they were close but showtime was something else due to the way it was less about just the basketball game
>>69262145

Fucking Spurs, I went to 3 different Spurs VS Heat games and only got to see 2 Lebron dunks
>>69262164
I was being salty. I'm probably the only 6ers fan here and I'm more than happy with Simmons so far. As far as usage goes, I think the offense will be centered around him a la Lebron - Simmons brings up the ball and creates shots for everyone else with the occasional ball down low for Embiid and Okafor.
If Okafor is moved and Embiid is healthy and plays up to his hype, I'm hoping to see something similar to Shaq and Penny, obviously and inferior version.
>>69262186
im a lakeys fans, and im jelly of your team. don't tell no one.

how the thunder are handling this is pretty remarkable. They'e probably going to lose 2 top 5 players in 2 years, but clearly have a plan, stability, and aren't panicking. Other FOs could learn a thing or 2 from this
>>69262313
Westbrook shouldnt be traded. Even if he walks next year its not like this team will exist without westbrook And durant.
So who is the second best team in the West now that the Thunder lost Durant and the Spurs lost Duncan to retirement?
I mean, this has to put the Clippers in the conversation and maybe even the Trail Blazers, right?

>>69262361
PHILTHYDELPHIA LOL, and the thing is westbrook might actually do it if simmons and embiid dont bust it up.
Can you imagine how much talent is going to be cucked from the spotlight because of this super team? Its like Lebron vs the Bulls, he basically ruined that franchise and a ton of players in their primes. this warriors team is going to be worse
>>69262345
Thunder don't really need more players and bloated contracts other than for salary filler, high draft picks are king and decent young players are just an added bonus.
what are your balling skills like /nba/?
>tfw that guy rather shooting despite being tall as shit cause no stamina to drive all the time
>>69262321
Well they aren't going to get any superstar talent to move to Oklahoma so they'll simply rebuild through the draft all over again. Any NBA players hail from Oklahoma?
Its disgusting what has happened to them but it took them almost a decade to build OKC into a powerhouse in the west.
Trust in Presti, he'll make it work eventually.
>>69262457

I need to play more and get in shape :\. I should buy myself a hoop to put in the street for those days I don't feel like going to the park. I'm an average park basketball player I guess. 5'8, can't dunk, my speed is pretty good for the people I play against/with, shooting is subpar, I'm alright at taking it to the rim, defense is my favorite part of the game and I'm pretty good at that when playing against your average player

You'd have a field day playing pick up at a local court here. Every time I go, its manlet asians rocking all the latest gear who can't shoot for shit so its all layups.

It wasn't till I experienced this first hand that I finally respected Shaq's resolve. I've gotten into fights because thought just because I was tall, they could break the rules and fly into me elbow first or shove me mid-air when I go up.
We should buy the Thunder and start our own team.

Yeah I pretty much get my game from Lebron, but without the size and skills. Just try to make the right play, look for whoevers open, shoot or take it to the rim if I'm open, and I love the chasedown block. Fast breaks are the shit though. You always have those guys those who have their games based on kobe and jordan memes though. Always want to hog the ball and play hero ball, but it's just a park game so I don't really care, I mainly like to play D and block shots and sprint up and down the court

>>69263920
>I don't even live on either coast

Pau right now is better than Duncan so Spurs are still 2nd best. Not that it matters too much anyway.
Where's the best place to get some 'land 'za?
>>69263974
you midcoast anons are pretty autistic
>>69263663
Yes but it's hard to find a good deal since he will be an expiring contract who will wait for even bigger salary cap to get $$$$ so he won't commit to anyone.
>>69263392
Zaza is already 32. Most 7 footers take a nose dive after 31 unless they are extremely skilled like Duncan/gasol. Time will tell though, he won't be as good as last years bogut.
Iggy, Livingston and barbossa will see a decline of some extent since they are are north of 30.
We have seen Durant play with Westbrook and harden and they were. And they were by no means unstoppable.

Maybe, but i wouldn't be shocked if Westbrook bolts for Bron Bron's team when he can next year or whatever, if only to do it better than Durant

My first cavs game was at the Richfield Coliseum, back before they moved to the Gund Arena which became the Q. Lifelong Cleveland fan here. When did you go to your first Warriors game?
>>69264125
He's not a great owner, I'm pretty sure he just has Jew friends at ESPN since they always suck his dick
The team had two good seasons in about 20 years and got lucky in 2011. He blew up the team the year after they won and he can't get a free agent to save his ass. He tries to make way to many unilateral decisions instead of having smart GMs similar to what Jerry jones does.
Yes the value of the team went it but that's more of the league growth than anything. Any big market team has seen its popularity rise, even the clippers and heat
>>69262321
That deal with the Magic just looks better and better.
Westbrook/Payne
Oladipo/Morrow
Roberson/Singler
Ilyasova/Sabonis/Collison
Adams/Kanter
They have like $26M in cap space to round out what's already a playoff roster, filled to the brim with young talent. If they move Westbrook for picks and a potential star on a rookie scale contract, let's say D'Angelo and 1-2 first rounders, they would have $38M to spend now and one of the largest windows in the league.
Wade to Cleveland is a done deal. They're trading Shumpert to Milwaukee to free up cap space and Lebron is signing for the vet min because he just signed with nike for a billion fucking dollars and he doesn't give a fuck.
>>69264233
>They're trading Shumpert to Milwaukee
Bucks making some great moves, easily top 5 in EAST IMO
>>69264233
Pls stop. Wade to Cleveland isn't a done deal. I could see shumpert being moved in the process, but I don't want to split up Smith and Shumpert to be honest. We already lost Delly and Mozgov so let's not get carried away stripping our bench.
Also, there is no way in hell LeBron signs for the vet minimum.
The only way I could see it happening is if somehow Riley cooperates with Wade and the Cavs front office and the Cavs are able to exercise their TPE in a sign and trade situation.
>>69264264

Based Jennings. I love how every Knicks signing is instantly going out and recruiting the next guy on the list. That trade would be a bitch to pull off though.

Not yet, that Nike deal is a lifetime deal, it's not a lump sum all at once. LeBron doesn't have a billi in his bank. Not only that, but there's no way in hell he's not getting paid what he deserves to be paid.
I'd like to see Wade here in Cleveland, but it's unrealistic as hell. Like I said, the only way to make it happen without Wade signing for significantly less, would be to exercise the TPE in a sign and trade. But that's going to take cooperation on Riley's part.

Wade did it for Bron when he and Bosh joined the heat

Nah, I'd have rather seen Lebron get a ring and have 4 rings by now. Plus Lebron looked like he was paid off to throw that finals, you don't simply go from playing like LeGOAT for years to suddenly staying still when the finals come

I feel like Wade could try and play if off like LeBron could pay him back for what he did.
Wade took less for LeBron and Bosh to join the heat and kept taking less.
AND he opted out of his last contract causing him to get less money because Lebron didn't let him know he was leaving.
>>69264978

>>69265237
I read somewhere that he has been a FIlipino citizen since he was 16 years old.
>>69265235
No, not sure how Wade would make it here to Cleveland. LeBron would likely have to take a paycut and they'd have to use their TPE in a sign and trade is my guess.
Not sure if Riley would play ball.
>>69264891
Mills still plays for the Spurs and is way better than the other two, so lol who cares. Shame Exum fucked up his knee, though he's pretty far from being a pure Aussie.

>>69265322
>implying the Spurs have a chance now.
I foresee Duncan retiring this summer, and what's a Spurs team without Tim Duncan?
>>69265238
The main changes I can think of is the luxury tax system. Teams that pay players over the salary cup in the past would have to pay a luxury tax, which used to stay consistant. But now if you have a team where you pay over the luxury tax it starts to multiply every year.
That's really the only part that prevent big market teams like the lakers from simply outspending teams like they used to do.
The luxury tax change is really the only thing that was done to keep big market teams from ruling, it wasn't really even to stop superteams though, but it was to give other teams better chances.
Also the teams share the yearly profits and split them among each other now, so instead of feeling cucked if you don't do good, if the league is getting good ratings and making profit then all the teams get more money anyway
>>69265327
dual citizenship should not matter. FIBA rules is just you are limited to 1 naturalized citizen. And if you gained citizenship under the age of 16 you are good to go. I think Kyrie is s dual citizen too.

And now he has signed a 2 year deal that will pretty much put him at 20 years service time to the Mavericks. That kind of Loyalty is Rare in a superstar. But Dirk is the single greatest international player and a Top 10 NBA player of All Time. And ublioe Kobe (who also had 20 years with the Lakers) Dirk has still maintained playing at a high level in his late 30s
Dirk is just too based.
>>69265615

100% right. Running ro a team that clearly doesn't even need your "superstar talents" to win a ring? The team that JUST shut you out of the finals? He's a bitch ass nigga and a massive cuck.
Westbrook should've passed the ball more
>>69265855

Who'll know that he should've won more and probably would have if he didn't have his loyalty to a team run by a fucking idiot.
>>69266005
Maybe, but at this point Klay is a legit all star and superstar that it is a big 4. They're going to be weaker to bigs this season for sure, KD ain't know for his D or his bulk, and Fetus and VarFlop are wasting good height.
>>69265859
Personally I don't care but this whole thing is just ridiculous. KD just wants to win a ring and just he got fed up with OKC after they were up.
>>69266150
Plus they keep putting sub optimal talent around him and Westbrook; the Ibaka trade was probably the last straw
>>69266287
I just realized they traded him to sign horford
