I dont understand the thought process of klay walking

Why
Just why

Hes living his best life and drops 44 on 4 dribbles. Where else will he be able to do that
because unless Durant walks, the Warriors cant afford him without incurring an unseen tax bill, around $200M in taxes alone in 2020.

Klay has made $78M in his career, and would get ~$35M per year from the Clippers. He deserves a big pay day, knowing that his social narrative is that hes a product of the Warriors and will always be Stephs #2.

Its a similar situation that led to Hardens leave in OKC, except significantly amplified monetary wise

im fine with kemba starting but its a helluva coincidence
Ben doing 17/10/8 on 58%

Plus his teams a contender and he runs the show

Obv cant shoot but he probably should have been a starter

Edit: since dipo got hurt

I just think Klay isnt the type to care about that narrative as Stephs #2

But who knows

Either way KD is leaving so non of this should he an issue. He’ll get his money, stay and warriors real core will have a shot to see what they can still do without KD like the old days

Yes
Beal

Beal should be a starter since Dipo is out

They really did Kemba a favor here

Fan voting has nothing to do with deserving hahaha. Its clearly rigged
I never said fan voting has anything to do with it. I said "they got it right" meaning they the NBA, you know the people who put  the all star starters together.
 
As for Klay, I don't see him leaving, and I could see him taking a pretty nice pay cut to stay too.

All star draft should be interesting

We should make a thread and predict the starters atleast

Brons got the #1 pick

But Kemba is having a really nice season, I can see him being a starter. What other eastern conference guard would you put over him other than Beal? Beal has a good argument.

Dude, honestly

Last night was a fog lol. I smoked weed for the first time in about a year, i hit a vape pen this chick had and it sent me on the moon

I didnt even know kemba was a starter when i read your post and i totally forgot the asg was in charlotte so everything seemed so confusing

And checking all that all star stuff seemed like a ridiculously hard task at that moment

Yeah I was talking about players on the trade block and you said the NBA wants Kemba to stay in Charlotte.
 
He's been a name that has floated around being available in trade talks, so I didn't know what you were talking about.

Now that i thought about it, who should be starting instead at that spot?

Dipo would have but got hurt
Lowry doesnt really deserve to start this season, more of a reserve

Only leaves it at Ben Simmons but idk
beal

Wade is a better shot blocker
Harden is a better post defender

Harden is better than wade at everything else I think. Maybe wade has a better turnaround jumper and floater

Harden has a better 3ball and handles

Reports Lakers are trying to make a trade to help them make the playoffs, or bring in a 2nd star.
 
Apparently everyone is tradeable for the star.

Exactly. Beal, the Wizards want to keep. AD the Pelicans want to keep and probably will only trade him when AD demands it. Marc or Conley I guess.
 
Kemba, Lillard both probably staying put cause their teams don't want to lose them.

I can't imagine a world where LeBron doesn't make the playoffs. Assuming he will be back before they really fall out of it.
