This is the most confusing news of the off-season. I thought he was just using Bulls/nuggets as leverage with Miami. He played his whole career there, won 3 championships, when you think Heat you think DWade. And he leaves for Chicago? And how does Rondo Wade Butler work? None of them are exactly catch and shoot guys.

Bulls trade dunleavy to the cavs.. Damn, that's the one team I didn't want him to go to. He could be big coming off the bench, being a great lanky defender and very good catch and shoot scorer when healthy.

Who wouldn't be happy making 100 mil and living in south beach? Especially after being out of the league a few years ago.

And besides were talking about Pat Riley. I fucking hate the guy, but he always bounces back.
Tim and Zo are gone. He drafts Wade and trades for Shaq.
Shaq is gone, people are counting the Heat out. He puts together the super team.
Lebron leaves Heat are fucked. He adds Whiteside, Richardson, Winslow, Dragic, etc to keep them in contention.
You think he's just gonna roll over because Wade left?

Well it looks like I was right about kd and Westbrook. Reports are coming out that he was 'frustrated' with Russell.

Chris Bosh could still play ?

Lol you really believe these reports that are being leaked out now for damage control. Westbrook and Durant were always good. They came up together, they grew into superstars together, they had love for each other. It wasn't about Westbrook, it was about Durant doing what's best for himself.

Actually yeah. The statement didn't come from the okc camp but from Durant's camp, plus the thunder aren't even trying to twist things. And why would the thunder 'leak' that Westbrook was greedy so they lost their superstar, that makes zero sense.

That's why I'm saying damage control. Because right now everybody is unloading on Durant for being soft, weak, a pussy, etc. and they're trying to spin it that he was frustrated with the offense, and playing with a more open free flowing passing offense is what he wanted and that's why he joined GSW. Not because they're a 73 win team that was 1 dumbass suspension away from being 2 time defending NBA champs.

League doesn't give green suspension for kicking Adams right in nuts which would of lead to thunder in finals. But happens when a guy fully walks over him and he just trying to brush him away and just happens it got close to the jewels. I am sure if it hit lebron in nuts he would of grabbed down there or bent over which he did neither. Another crazy part about that is who decided to slow that part down? Didn't even realize that till they showed it after the game. If the thunder make the finals durant stays and if the Warriors win durant stays. Instead the NBA ends up with lebron as the man and now the super team they will make a shit load of even more money off of. This offseason is perfect for the NBA. So many storylines and so many great games to put on TV. In the end the NBA wins in every aspect.

100% agree. I don't think Durant wouldve went to warriors if they won again. I don't think the last draymond foul was a flagrant at all, while the others certainly were.

hey Keyser Soze, doing some pointless internet research, found out one of my favorite college players of all time is on the Knicks coaching staff. the Knicks player development associate, Dave Bliss. dude hit a clutch bank shot to put Georgia over Ole Miss in the 2008 SEC Tournament. then the next night was when the tornado hit Atlanta, and then Georgia ended up playing 3 games in 2 days and won the SEC, and earned their way into the NCAA Tourney despite a 13-16 regular season record
