2016 NBA Offseason Discussion Thread

Hope you read the article where it said KD straight up told Russ as dinner a WEEK before , that hes staying . Then just completely changed his mind and didnt tell Russ . That seems okay to you?

He made a business decision

KD had every right to up and leave the team that he built his career with, he had every right to go to a record breaking Golden State team and join a back-to-back MVP. No doubt it was strictly a business decision just like lots of other NBA players make every year.
 
Doesn't make him any less of a sellout though.

 

[Mexi]

Even if he wins hes always gonna have a huge asterisk
Bigger than kobe's first 3

People say championships are championships but to this day even after winning 2 more kobes first 3 are still looked down upon by a lot of people

Westrbook is doing this to maximize his earning potential.  He realizes that there's nowhere he can go in the next couple of years that's going to realistically be able to compete with Golden State, so he signed the 2+1 so he can get the supermax in 2018 when he decides to leave.  I guarantee he doesn't give a shit about loyalty either.

 

[Paulius]

You can go on with the assumptions, but the point is he stayed. He didnt shy away from the challenge

 

[Hurricane Season]

What challenge?  He's getting like 27 million dollars and the greenest of green lights for the next two years.

 

[videofreak8]

I guess it's actually hard to believe some people actually mean what they say. Guess we'll find out in a couple years
