Magic is the greatest pg of all time. Kareem is arguably the greatest center. Worthy is a HOFer. Great supporting cast.
You can take the Warriors. Give me the Showtime Lakers.

I don't agree with the "exposed" ****, either. One bounce of the ball and they're B2B champs.

And here's another thing - it's f***ing Oklahoma City vs. the Bay Area! ****, if you could get the hell out of dry *** Oklahoma and go to the West Coast, wouldn't you??
NO.
It was wrong then, and it's wrong now. She's not good. She never was good. If you took all the good in the world and put it in a room, and then got rid of it, that's Rachel Nichols.
Duly noted and I guess I was thinking about critics in general rather than you specifically. The salary cap (which owners can exceed if they want to pay the tax but is rarely mentioned) doesn't seem like it is going keep things competitive amongst the teams, which is the intent.
Maybe Milwaukee or Toronto should have a higher cap than Miami due to climate. Maybe the Knicks (with a high state tax) should have a higher cap than no-state-tax teams. I don't know the answer, but these new contract extensions are mind-numbing. If 8 teams can offer you $25,000,000 to play basketball for one year, why NOT go where it will be the easiest to win, most fun, nicest weather or clubs or whatever you're into?
There has always been stacked teams. Only difference is back in the day, owners stacked teams, now the players do. I get why KD did it, but to go with the team that you JUST lost to ??? It looks bad on his part, but on the other side, I get it, he wants to win a ring., He is a choker, so instead of him having the pressure of making the big shot or carrying his team, he will just join a team who has players that will, and can make them, and he gets to enjoy the ride. Win / Win. He can go there, score 20 per game, and then when the game is on the line, pass the ball to Steph,,,, just like he did with Russell Westbrook.
If you have to choose one to start a team, KD or Russell Westbrook ?

Never in the history of 7 game playoff series, in any sport, has the best team lost.
Thinking he is our #1 go to guy in late game situations when we have to have a bucket. This year will be fun.
Over/Under on what game BJW will start referring to him as Malik Dunk? T-shirts soon to follow.
Always love the blowhards getting all bent out of shape bc JORDAN, MAGIC AND LARRY WERE THE ULTIMATE COMPETITORS & DID IT THE REAL WAY.
Ummm...
The Showtime Lakers had 2 other Hall of Famer's in Kareem and Worthy plus the best of the best role players in Scott, Perkins, and Cooper.
Bird played along 2 other Hall of Famers in McHale & Parrish. DJ & Ainge ain't chopped liver to boot.
Jordan got to play with Pippen & Rodman. Both Hall of Famers and one could argue that Rodman is the greatest rebounder of all time and one of the best low post defenders ever. Pippen is one of the best small forwards to ever play and one of the best wing defenders in the history of the game.
BUT KD & LEBRON SHOULDVE STAYED PUT AND DONE IT ALL THEMSELVES!!1

Shew bright lights, good buzz, one handed slams on the heads of those baby blue touch boys. I hope we work the kinks out early this year but regardless Vegas will definitely not suck leading up to that one on the 17th of December.
There were 23 teams in the NBA back then. Of course, talent was more concentrated. It was also more concentrated for their opponents. Bird, Magic, Thomas, Jordan- NONE of those guys went hunting for an easier route to the title. They sure as F didn't join a rival or the team who just beat them. Golden State arguably has four of the best 12-15 players in the league right now.
Good

<------------Hoping the Warriors go undefeated solely because of Chad and 73.

Well, that's pretty silly, considering it wouldn't bother me at all if the Warriors went undefeated. I don't dislike them at all.
I don't care who wins the NBA title next year as long as it somehow diminishes Michael Jordan.
If the Warriors can go 77-5 on their way to a title, then they're inarguably better than the 96 Bulls. Win. If the Cavs somehow win it again, then LeBron can improve his claim to be the GOAT. Win. Either way is fine with me.
