Warriors: Kawakami: Warriors targeting Anthony Davis

[Kyle Orton]

How classy would it be if these star players were going to fat antonio instead tbh

[Jules_Winnfield]

Klay Thompson+Jordan Bell+Pat McCaw+picks would be a decent package

I wouldn't trade Dray for AD straight up if I'm Golden State. The Dynasty is Steph, KD and Dray. Thompson is completely expendable

C'mon


Curry - Thompson - Durant - Davis

This would be something else.

[ambchang]

Completely disagree.

Can't just blame the average fan....if someone is a weak, easy path in life like KD or Bron, then that is their ty morals and ethics, not ours.

They already get paid millions for living the dream, least they can do is respect the league they play in.

There isn’t anything disrespectful or morally wrong with what they are doing. The goal in life is for them to make the league and win a ring. The league used to have restrictions through limited revenue that they can’t actually give salaries to players that are so exorbitant that players don’t mind losing a few million here or there.

Then they all grew up watching how people’s legacy are created, and it’s clear it’s all about the ring. Doesn’t matter how you get it, as long as you got one. They see how a cog like Kenny smith would have gloating rights over a hofer like Barkley. They saw how lebron winning that first ring justified the decision as if it never happened. They saw how there’s actually a Kobe vs Duncan debate with the only argument being five rings. They saw how dirk catapulted from a soft Euro who can’t play d to be second/third best PF of all time, ahead of greats like Barkley and McHale (I actually agree, but I think dirk already surpassed both of them without the ring, his best years was way past in 2011 anyways ).

We really created this environment because we are too lazy.

Disagree.

It is disrespectful and morally wrong.

And we are not lazy.

Classic 2018....everything is always someone else's fault apparently

You say you're still here as a Laker fan during the tough years, but you've just fully jumped on the warriors band wagon.

Nope. Die hard Laker Fan through and through.

Within 3-5 of my first few posts on ST, I was called a gt. So, since I know you farmers loathe KD, I prop him up. Y'all love LeHype, so I clown him.

See how that works?

Oh yeah, I'm sure that's it.

Yeah. It’s our fault.

Not sure if you know what disrespectful or morally wrong is. I can’t comprehend how players building the best team possible to pursue the one thing society determined is the most valuable thing to them is wrong. It’s not like they cheated.

Mentally weak and chicken ? Sure immoral and disrespectful? No. Btw, the league encouraged this type of behaviour too, so them following suit cannotbe disrespectful to the league.

I don’t like it but it is what it is.

Folks saying Klay Thompson is expendable are highly underrating his impact on the Warriors. The dude is the ultimate role-player: a guy that takes care of the other team's best player and can score 20 or 30 without needing to have the ball on his hands for more than a second at a time. Trading him for Anthony Davis wouldn't make the Warriors any better. So trading him AND other assets for AD makes even less sense.

Steph can be Steph because the second best shooter in the NBA, also with a super quick release, is on his team. Anytime you cover Steph, you always have to wary and cover Klay too, which gives that extra inch of space to Steph, which is all he needs. It's unreal that both these guys ended up on the same team.

Durant and Steph are deadly, but Klay makes the team unguardable.

[offset formation]

Thompson is far from expendable. He's a ing stud.

He's more reliable than Curry.
