I bought a pair of 200 dollar Lebrons and I love them.
I also don't wear them though.. I never play on indoor courts so they stay in the box. They're made for indoor courts only. Gotta find some rubber ass carmelos for outdoor courts

it's hard to say, there could be tons of players better than LeBron. Honestly, before the 2011 Finals, I didn't think Dirk was better than LeBron, but I guess I overestimated LeBron and underestimated Dirk. So, who's to say anyone who has yet to played LeBron is worse than him.
LeBron is trash.

>>69332380
Indy is 2 or 3
Also, Holy fuck. The west looks weak now. Is the starting 5 of GS+a center going to be the West all-star team?
Who the fuck is Dewayne Dedmon?
The Bulls will be good enough to be 4th in the east
>>69333063
A d-league level center, plays for Magic, good shot-blocker
>>69333063
Dewayne (Wade) is a dead man (Dedmon). -Pat "dare you try to run up" Riley
>>69332977
Don't see how Blake doesn't start if he's healthy again. Dude is a highlight reel but injuries kept him out of the last 2 ASGs.
But who knows GSW popularity is probably going to skyrocket even further. Zaza has a big fanbase overseas too so if their popularity truly does go up further fuck it just make GSW be the starting 5.

>>69333567
Butler, Wade, and Rondo are carrying the bulls to the playoffs? interesting
Friendly reminder that the refs gifted OKC the series against the spurs and san antonio wouldve beaten golden state/cleveland.
>>69333910

I don't know, there's been times a team looks great but then they play and you realize the NBA system just doesn't mesh together as well. I think they're going to be good though even though I don't want them to win the championship. They probably have the tallest talented wing duo in the league
>>69334571
I hope pop still has it in him cause he has a hard job this year
there's even more new faces on that team this year and a couple of them are rookies plus it'll be the first time in like 20 years he won't have Duncan on the team
>>69334131
I just realized Howard being in the east now means he might end up playing against Lebron in the playoffs. Howard will get cucked
>>69334903
>duncan making a difference the last few years

>>69333679

>>69334131
>>69334994
I think we may get surprised in how the east stacks up this year. And the west for that matter.
Also how insane is it that LeBron has never had a real injury
>>69335172
LeBron is a freak that's why
It was pretty funny seeing him get cramps because there was no AC at the Spurs' arena though
Any chances Portland can be a top 3 seed this year?
>>69335061
Duncan was playing well even up to allstar break until his other knee gave out
>>69335631
If clippers are healthy, their top potential is 4 I feel like. They could outdo the rockets and thunder imo, but if WestGod takes over then I could see OKC as a 2-3
>>69335172
Yeah EAST will be solid I just think Hornets are going to need a big man to step up for them. HEAT will drop off. I think the Pistons, Pacers, and Bulls are better.
>>69331068
When you wear size 15 like I do every brand and style of shoe is overpriced even the cheap brands.
>>69335929
I wouldn't be surprised to see knicks in the mix between 4-6
>>69335990
I feel really sorry for you man. I'm a size 11 but I can fit into anything between 9.5 and 11.>>69336000
>>69336233
Are you me? Exact same thing over here. Nike runs small as fuck for most shoes that I buy from them. Shame these PEs will never be out.
>>69336233
But see I do have a little bit of hillbilly in me and if I'm not at work I literally don't ever wear shoes at home.
>>69335825
When KD was injured that year, WB didn't really step up. Oladipo will help with the scoring now, but I don't think that'll be enough to break into the 4th seed let alone 2 or 3 lol
>>69336829
I think Oladipo will make much more of a difference. And Adams has come a long way since then as well. Dion is better too, but god was that kanter move idiotic. They will pay for that for a while, did you see how inept he looked in the WCF? It was like he didn't know how to play
>>69336829
WB missed like 16 games that year though and didn't have Ibaka either for a large portion of them. I know he doesn't have Ibaka either this year but back then those 2 actually took up the cap.
This WB-led Thunder and that WB-led Thunder aren't that comparable.
>>69333318
they're literally out of options. they didn't have the budget to match detroit's offer, so they picked an able body who's content with earning only 3m/year in this new salary situation.
>>69333420
Yea lebron is shit dudeo
>>69335825
West is a clusterfuck after the Warriors, Clippers have to be the #2 team if they're healthy but there are so many variables
>how will the Thunder play now and will Oladipo be a difference maker
>how much does Gasol have left
>was Dwight the problem or is Harden the real problem
>>69337172
not to mention they were giving big minutes to guys like Lance Thomas, Sebastian Telfair, Ish Smith, Kyle Singler and Mitch McGary
>>69330439

>wade to bulls
why
>>69338147
Riley thought he was calling Wade's bluff, turned out Wade wasn't bluffing this time.
>>69338147
He's coming home to win one for da wind
>>69337858
>was Dwight the problem
Has Dwight ever left a team on good terms?
>>69338147
Born in chicago, easy way to have huge sales revenues and a meme story behind it. Perfect way to set up a narrative to go against lebron and run the east, plus teaming up with JB is a nice move
>>69335596
Because he's pure muscle, the Spurs probably predicted that would happen. No doubt they used their homecourt advantage to the fullest and turned off the AC in game 1 and stole a game

Are there any big men left for them to pick up? They need some rim protection bad, I like plumlee but damn he got dunked on hard in the playoffs.
>>69338607
Ezeli is in Portland right now.
>>69338147
feels pretty bad man, wade was the heat's golden boy for the entire time he was there.
>>69338666
Will he take less money now that everyone has passed on him?
>>69338666
>Ezeli
hahahahahaha
JUST
>>69338607
He got dunked on but he also grabbed mad boards, he had 15+ on multiple occasions. I think what they really need are some bench vets instead of shit head ed davis, or even a good 3 guard like ariza or terrance ross
>>69338666
Ezeli is a mediocre rim protector tho. Doesn't really fit in that way
>>69338787
It's portland. We have no other option since free agents don't come here. It's either get someone mediocre or get no one at all.
Damn. I just want the season to start already. Preseason is a long ways away.

They are hella comfy, but I've been wearing casual adidas stuff mainly now
>>69339645
Look I love nb but you gotta admit they got tons of dadcore shoes so I hope you're wearing the good pairs like 300, 574, 997 or 998. Don't wear the dadcore ones. They aren't even unironicaly good
>>69339735
I've never actually worn Adidas
not because I have something against them, but I went straight from >muh nikes to wearing New Balance and the quality and comfort of the shoes has been so good compared to Nike that I haven't even wanted to buy other shoes

>>69340308
he's probably going nowhere, he's just a hilarious story because he went an entire college season without taking a single shot inside the arc.
like he managed to never even accidentally put his foot on the line, he went an entire college season attempting only 3's and hit 46% of them
>>69340308
Because his name is Max fucking Hooper.
I'd love him just to be the 15th guy on a team somewhere just so they can say Max Hooper is on their team.
>Boban gone

Were the Heat in the right in letting Wade walk away like that
I hope the Warriors get cockblocked this season.
Then I hope there's a lockout that cancels the '18 season and fucks up the salary cap and renders the Warriors unable to keep him.
I hope he tries to come back to the Thunder, and I hope they tell him to fuck off.

>>69344581
Maybe. This more or less drops them out of any sort of chip aspirations and might make them miss the playoffs. It's weird that they gave Whiteside a huge contract. I'm not sure how a roster with him dragic and winslow are gonna be anything more than a 7th or 8th seed.
On the other hand, Wade was passed his prime and definitely not worth a massive contract like he wanted. Maybe if they replaced him with a younger guy, it would be looked at as a good move but it just seems like he got away and they had no backup plan. Unless Riley pulls some weird shit, which I don't doubt he will, idk if the heat can make it back to the playoffs.

>>69345464
Maybe, except they're still stuck with 29 year old dragic and 28 year old Whiteside at 100 million. Heat are in a weird ass spot imo, should not be a good team in a few years based on how their roster is constructed. Riley always works magic tho so we'll see

>>69347017

I have no idea, but Butler will probably play SF. Ask Hoiberg. It'll probably be a trainwreck, and they'll probably miss the playoffs or skitch on by with an 8th seed, but it'll be a fun trainwreck. I just can't wait to hear Wade's starting lineup intro.

>>69347563
they haven't confirmed anything so far, neither the signings nor the trades. i think they need to wait until they have all their contracts in order because they have to juggle a lot with the sequence of things to fit everything under the cap.
guys tell me something about dinwiddie, i wonder if he could be a good cheap guard/wing addition to the spuds roster. he looks fine to me.
>>69347454

Honestly Durant going to California is logcial. Why would he stay in fucking okc or god forbid come home to Washington. It's just typical what small market teams (and dc) have been putting up with for 30 years. It sucks but that's how it is

NBA players barely spend any time at their actual home during the season, and they usually live in some nonflyover during the offseason. Geography is not as important as you think it is.

I didn't quite mean geography. It's California man. A mecca. The warriors are a great team. I just meant like, teams from cali progress while other teams regress. It's like the natural order in sports, where people wanna play in California and not anywhere else. Why would Durant stay in a shithole like okc when he could play in fucking cali? Just seems like we've seen this narrative a hundred times before.

no kidding though, he seems to be a good, mature kid, 6ft6, can run the fast break. murray won't be able to help right away, so a more nba-ready combo backup for when you need someone more physical than mills or someone less... old than ginobili might be a good idea. he was a second-round draft pick on a cheap contract and he just got waived, so i guess they could get him for cheap.
>>69348664
Yeah. So glad their look hasn't changed all that much. Even their throwback jerseys look good, the one with the cursive script on it.
you guys watch the Durant press conference? best day of my life
>>69333679
Worse. Last year they could legitimately outplay 90% of the league with just their bench. They won Finals games just coasting off their bench in the 4th quarter. Losing that depth means they have to rely more on building huge leads with their starters and then just hope that the bench only gives up half of it. They aren't going to play their starters huge minutes to salvage every game. In the playoffs, at the very least they won't have to deal with Barnes suddenly bricking everything and costing them a ring. All their starters can deliver in the clutch. If they aren't afraid to make them put in 40+ minutes in Finals games, I think they'll be able to win pretty handily.

True.
To be the best 3 jerseys in the league are
Spurs, Bulls, Heat in no specific order. Cavs black jerseys are cool too, even though they're "shirt jerseys" unfortunately but I guess we have to get used to shirt jerseys now

Yeah, you're right on all counts. I've got relatives in San Antonio so they send me Spuds gear all the time.

I used to not like these Cavs jerseys very much, but now that they're a lost era and throwback I think they're cool.
>>69349077
Yeah, I didn't really like them back then either. Now I think they're alright.
>>69349077
I like their current wine and golds tho
>>69348198
He should have tried to win one with the Clippers then. If championships were so important to him, he could have taken a pay cut for 1 year then rework his salary. Still would have been a superstar lineup. Instead he's a bitch in everyone's mind for jumping ship to the team that whooped his ass in the WCF
My favorite jerseys are the cav t-shirt jerseys, OKC's blue/white Jersey, and the Bucks' black jerseys.

>>69349958
they choked in 2013 when they lost the game 7 by a big margin
>>69349762
It all fell apart right after All-Star break, The first half of the year they were dominating, and then just went to shit quick. Hell I remember people were starting to compare PG to Lebron already. Though I think all that talk really got to him cause his game was off for the rest of the year
>>69349871
same reason you didn't get Durant
lakersfam ww@
Westbrook should just come out and say he will test free agency and there are no guaranteed that he will stay with any team. This will stop any team from doing a half season rental and waste their assets.
He then signs with the Lakers who have the space.
Lakers then make a trade around D'Angello Russel for an All Star Center. I think Candidates are Boogie and Anthony Davis. AD because he may not make the playoffs again next year.
So 2018 Lakers
PG: Russel Westbrook
SG: Jordan Clarkson
SF: Brandon Ingram
PF: Julius Randle
C: Anthony Davis
This a 10-13 year Dynasty. We will have at least 2 top 15 players in their primes for 13 years with this move.

>shit self thinking the Warriors would be unbeatable

Yeah they're beatable. Draymond will fall off. Klay is still just a spot up shooter, Steph has been exposed as a regular season babby and Durant is a choke artist. 3rd round exit.
>Guerchon Yabusele is actually good
DANNY DOES IT AGAIN
>>69349449
There was a huge skillset overlap between him and Kemba that probably accounts for part of it, along with some injuries and loss of confidence. He was great on the Clippers but Doc made a ton of horrendous decisions that year as far as rotations and who he put in the dog house, wouldn't give him a chance no matter how many times he delivered. Memphis gave him the minutes and we immediately saw that he could still do the same things as always.
So his issues were really just isolated to that season in Charlotte. I'm surprised no one's jumped at the chance to sign him yet.

Find a flaw.
Bulls getting Wade now is the equivalent of the Wizards getting Jordan. Better to say goodbye sooner and start rebuilding quicker than to have a geriatric pull your team down and ruining the franchise's chances of getting younger talent by wasting the money on a senior cause of muh legacy. I'm looking at you Lakers.

I can almost guarantee Barnes doesn't give a shit. He's been brand man since high school. He wants what's best for Harrison Barnes and nothing else, and being on that championship roster legitimized him but also made him look bad and like a scapegoat. He's thrilled to be leaving.
If I was bogut I'd be pissed though, he was their one legitimate big and they let him go? I don't understand the logic, sure KD is amazing, but weren't there other moves to make to keep bogut?
His interior defense literally was the thing that was blocking the Cavs.
>>69351895
They are very angry.
>>69351784
that's loyalty in the NBA and pro sports for you
they love you and need you until they find a chance to improve the team then it's GTFO
>>69351565
He's a bitch
>>69351784
Yeah I would feel like trash too if I got a guaranteed contract of 94 million dollars and no longer have to be the 4th or 5th option.
>>69351926
they would have only been able to give KD like 13M if they didn't trade Bogut
there was talk that teams would refuse to trade for Bogut but Cuban hates the Thunder for cramping into his market share so he would gladly do anything to fuck them over.
>>69351955
It's just crazy not to try to keep that roster together.
73-9 and 1 win away from a championship ring?
Why fuck with it too much?
>>69351926
It was either move Bogut or Iggy. Both are on 10 million contracts. Even though Bogut is their rim protector he is always hurt. He and Ezeli were also big liabilities at the free throw line.
>>69351661
Yes, but you could've done it earlier instead of wasting money and talent on Kobe longer than needed. Follow the path of Riley.
>>69352007
I don't know.
>this awful shooting this quarter
Blow it up and trade away all these busts Danny.
>>69349562
your point?
>>69352046
Hahahaha.
Yep, same with me bro. I really don't know either.
Is the addition of Kevin Durant for a year really worth gutting the bench and losing rim protection like that?
Kevin is great but he's going to opt out after this year for sure, so this is basically a rental.
>>69352051
NEW
NEW

Murray and Anderson are p good
>>69352007
The organization is also a business. Getting Durant would profit them more money.

>wasting money and talent on Kobe longer than needed.
kobe is the reason all you faggots get BTFO on this Somalian kid trafficking board.
>>69352084
my point is she's a vapid skank and there are plenty of those in the world
she has the mind and the body of somebody who should be doing porn
>that pass
pack your bags kid, you're heading home
>>69352121
2 early faggot
>>69352144
I wish she was.
>>69352007
Because they can't beat the cavs with that 73-9 record.
At the end of the day, regular season doesn't matter when the playoffs begin
>>69352199
One win away dude, they can definitely beat the cavs with that lineup. They did the year before and they nearly did this year.
I honestly think it was the dumbest fucking shit getting durant on a rental
>>69352196
Same
>>69352261
Yes 1 win that they could have won if Bogut didn't got hurt AGAIN or Barnes didn't brick all those fucking shots in the last 2 games.
So What did the warriors did? got rid of those 2 losing factors that cost them the chip and got KD
>>69352343
and gutted their bench, don't forget about that part.
>>69352475
>gutted their bench
They got Pachulia and David West plus still a lot of ring chasers willing to take the vet min, so their Depth isn't that gutted, maybe isn't as reliable than their old bench, maybe is better, we will only know when the season start
>>69335172
His HGH use will make for a great 30 for 30
>>69352599
pachulia/david west cant protect the rim half as well as bogut or even ezeli. and they cant set illegal screens as masterfully either. warriors will be worse next year for sure. they will probably still make the finals because san antonio is worse, the thunder are dead and the clippers are cursed. but they will get raped by lebron and kyrie again
>>69351565
>not using Barnes' jersey number for shits n giggles
>>69338058
sweet dude
Anyone got good Lebron memes?
Hey guys
Fuck kevin durant
