Should NBA players be allowed to "team up" prior to being FAs?

Report: Durant, Irving planned to team up before 2018-19 season began

How do y'all feel about players teaming up a year in advance?
Myself, I'm fine with it except when said player loses on purpose. See OKC Durant vs Golden Phaggots up 3-1.

Nothing wrong with it

If the whites did it it'd be debatable out loud. Media trying to debate this in an open forum? No. You'd end up unemployed & worse...unemployable. Sometimes on the local ESPN affiliate here they'll try & discuss such for a segment. But, it's hopeless, a lot of hemmin' & hawin'---passin' the buck back & forth, watching that timer to a blessed commercial break is due in..."I don't really have an opinion on this. I'd like to say 'no' - but, even 'yes' should be considered. Now a word from our alternate sponsor."

Why would anybody be opposed to two friends talking about the future? It's no different from two bartenders talking about working at the same bar someday, or two nurses talking about working side by side at the same hospital.

There's nothing that can be done about it anyway. Shit, Magic tampered the hell out of everything while he was there and never faced any real consequences.

Their careers, their choice, this aint 1860.

no, they shouldn't, it's bad for the league. But there's nothing that can be done about it.
