I'm really not surprised to be honest. A little disappointed though. |

The GSW death lineup just got deadlier. The folks who hated Steph and the Warriors already have an even more hatred now. Lol. For sure Harrison Barnes is out. Probably Ezeli too. I'm very surprised though...never thought Kevin would depart OKC. [Edited 7/4/16 9:49am]I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. |

Stephen A. Smith is a gasbag and a moron but today he reached new heights of moronity. No matter how stupid you think is the most stupid you can be, Stephen A. Smith can be even stupider than that.
He's ragging on KD because KD is leaving to go to the team that beat his in the Western Conference Finals? He thinks that is "weak"? WTF?!? Who was he supposed to go to - some dog-ass team like the Rockets? Anyone with even one working brain cell knows that if you're going to leave because you want to win, you go to a team that is better than yours. And the Warriors proved they are better than the Thunder.
I agree with others - there may not be enough basketballs to go around. It depends on how Draymond Green handles getting fewer shots. Considering what he did in Game 7, he might be thinking he deserves the basketball. To me, his attitude will be key because Durant is going to be getting the shots Green used to get.
The Warriors might win 80 games next year, but I still won't bet against LeBron James and the Cavs. |

And also b/c he stays on LeBron's dick all the time. And yeah Bron might have the trophy (for now) but he still doesn't impress me...it was Kyrie who really got that trophy for Cleveland, but b/c LeBron is THE popular player then he gets all the shine. Right. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. |

Like I said in the Finals thread, in the past, other players did what LeBron and Durant are accused of doing, "championship chasing". Shit, Charles Barkley did it twice, so I don't want to hear from him or any haters. With Durant, OKC had what it takes to beat Golden State, so I was surprised he left. |

Yeah, I'm sure Fes is gone. Surprised they dealt Bogut - he was a good rim protector. |

I like Livingston's game. I'm glad he was able to bounce back from those injuries and become a valuable role player for GS. |

Bogut always seems to get hurt at crunchtime... ALWAYS, year after year. Good guy, but see ya! I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it |

Trust me if anyone knows about Charles chasing rings its me. I actually didn't have a problem with him leaving as it was apparent then owner Harold Katz didn't know what the fuck he was doing as he gave away a number one draft pick away for peanuts( which turned out to be Brad Daugherty because he thought he was too soft) and traded Moses Malone for bad bucked knees Jeff Ruland. He destroyed Barkley's title hopes before his prime. The only problem I had with Chuck was him throwing his teammates under the bus like Hersey Hawkins when things went south. Despite that I was still rooting for Chuck in Phoenix. Don't laugh at my funk

Me too, Shaun Livingston is a very underrated player and he added a ton to the GSW. He's somebody if he had a little more confidence on court who could translate into a starting role but right now as a role player he's doing great. |

So true. When he had a big game during Game 1 of the Finals, I was very happy for him. People were finally discovering about his long journey to where he's at now. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. |

Don't worry, let Stephen A. keep running his big mouth about Durant. Kevin is going to rip him again just like he did last year. SAS is asking for it.
Do you know that there's a 19 minute video of SAS overdramatically ranting about KD's move to GSW? Talk about overkill. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. |

I was rooting for OKC to win it all this year and they had an excellent shot and blew it. I can't root for him in Oakland. I just don't care for the Warriors. Remember when Shaq played for the Lakers and Don Nelson coached the Warriors he accused the Warriors of playing clown ball and the next time they met Don Nelson came to the game with a clown nose on. Don't laugh at my funk

I have to admit I slept on him.

LMAO! You shoulda posted that one. His head is so far up his own ass that being a drama queen is the only way he can stay paid.

LeBron led the Finals in every offensive category, and had the greatest Finals of any player in the history of the NBA, and it was Kyrie who really got that trophy? You're so awesome!

I'm with you. Heck, I would WANT "championship chasers" on my team. Any guy that leaves the comfort of his established team in order to go for a ring has to be hungry, and hungry is what you want.
But I think Durant's position was that OKC did NOT have what it takes to beat Golden State. If Durant thought they did, he would have stayed put. My guess is that Durant's thinking was, "We gave everything we had this year, and it wasn't enough. And there isn't anyone we can get that will make us better than Golden State, so we/I have plateaued here".
He'll never say that but I can't think of any other reason to leave OKC for GS other than he didn't think OKC could ever beat GS.
