This x1000.
Was Pop's "you have to ask his group" remark after a season of frustration any worse than Siakam's remark after winning the le?
Does Uncle Dennis lock Kawhi away every night in a gimp suit?
Has she been reading my posts on here or what... ?
Fam... This is a year old...
Never seen it before.
Wasn't she removed from that show soon after?Has she been reading my posts on here or what... ?
People said 2014 was just a dream too!My dream scenario would be that he signs a short-term deal in TOR, PopaGOAT takes advantage of a depleted GS to reach the Finals, then he proceeds to beat the out of Nephew. That would be so so satisfying, tbh.
There was nothing malicious in what Pascal said.

She looks even worse a year laterNever seen it before.
Has anybody wondered if maybe Siakam was jerking people's chains, a little, with that Uncle Dennis remark, to get a reaction? There are times those "dumb jocks" can be more clever than you'd suspect.
Merely an idle thought.
I agree, but if he leaves, they will spin this as a reason. It's what they do.
That is in no way a confirmation of Kawhi's return, Mouse.
The first le was won as a souped up version of Bowen, while the second likely only occurred because of the Warriors injuries. The third, I'd have to see the context (quality of teammates, compe ion, luck, etc.) to judge.
This whole era of players has ruined the credibility of these championships because they're dictating the cir stances as opposed to them occurring organically. Like, if he didn't pull what he did, there's a 0% chance the Raptors get him for the embarrassing package they do and without that exact package, they don't even have a path to a championship.
Delusional
Thats what most are saying though. Reagrdless if he deserves it or not from an overall body of work standpoint he is going to be massively praised.

He sounded like he didn’t know.
I think the keep the conversation between us was in response to someone asking “What are things Kawhi is looking for in Free Agency?”.
the talk starts around 11:20

Doesn’t matter how you nit pick, it’s all about what the record books say. The record book have Kd as a 2x champ and 2xfmvp. Won’t say anything about him joining a superteam to achieve those.

I know he is (no matter what he accomplished, he wouldn't have been to nearly the same extent had he stayed) but the way timvp wrote it, it read as his opinion.
The point is, pukes like Durant and S bag's "accomplishments" shouldn't be compared to the likes of Duncan's and Nowitzki's.
Exactly. Perception = reality, unfortunately.
Obviously Nephew won't actually be a top 5 player ever but if he "led" a "third" team to a championship, that'd be talking head fuel for all eternity. Tim, Tony and Manu would eventually be footnotes ... when in reality, Neph could arguably have been the sixth most important player on the 2014 team behind the Big 3, Green and Diaw, IMO. At the very highest, he was the fourth most important player, tbh.
Fair enough. I agree with the sentiment, but I think even most of them would say 10.
I think time is a lense that clears the further on you move. Baseball, for instance. Everyone thought that the roiders would all ruin the game and get falsely inflated legacies. Didn't happen. They are rightly reviled, now that they are no longer a cash cow for the game. I think the NBA Super teams era will be viewed the same way, in longer retrospect.
That much salty? Wow! Sorry for you, my condolence!

They shouldn’t but they will be. If Kawhi were to win a 3rd on another team the sports media will be putting him up there. There will be a few who will try and bring up the cir stances which led to him winning but the bigger voices will start talking about him as all time great
I hear some of them do it with td all the time. They use the fact that td had a great coach and all star teammates to discredit his achievements
