    At this point, let’s recognize that Durant is worth 2-3 players that are currently not playing in the Finals. Harrison Barnes, Barbosa and Ezeli. These are the kind of quality players they cannot afford to keep with Durant on the roster.

    It’s really futile to attempt to figure out how much better the Warriors would be without Durant but with some decent players in his place. What we do know is that they did win a ring without him. And at the same time, he’s a great player.

    Think Steph needs another all star?  Last I checked Dray, Klay and Cousins are pretty good.  I'm not sure if the three guys you mentioned are still in the league.

    I hate people who supposedly root for a school or went there yet absolutely dislike their best player ever who has done nothing really wrong other than leaving a toxic relationship for a better one.

    You're a wealthy young guy, you want to live in SF or OKC?

    Man, so many huge Texas fans in here piling on Durant. Makes sense in my opinion. I'm gonna go now and shit on Danny Manning for dumb reasons.

    Our fan base can be shitty.  Of course there's a lot of OKC Westbrook fans lurking #tripledouble

    Yea..... no.  But it's Barry McCockiner so not gonna try to explain it.

    Curry, Thompson and Green have never won a title without Shaun Livingston.... and around and around we go.

     

    Curry, Thompson and Green and Livingston have never won a finals mvp.

    why do paid talking heads matter? They are right/wrong as the more than casual fan. Everyone acknowledges that the offense flows better when KD is out; Steph & Klay are more productive, they were 32-2 w/SC and no KD right? That stat was all over the media.  I'm thinking that even with KD they still lose the series. Problem is they can't stop KL and the TOR outside shooting has been amazing.  TOR bigs are getting lots of easy buckets. I don't think KD would make that much of a difference now that i think about it a little more. 

    Congrats on the regular season title.

    No, I didn't move the goalposts. I've maintained all along that it's naive to think every program isn't dirty to a certain extent. What I do think is fucking ridiculous is the baby brother (South Carolina, aggy) conspiracy theories like a church is funneling money to recruits or someone who works for 247 is a bagman for a program, jfc. To me, there's a big difference between hundred dollar handshakes and a recruit showing up out of nowhere and committing on the spot. 

     

     

    Don't be a twat? I would say the same to you. I know you are more plugged in than most others, but check your holier than thou bullshit at the door. Wasn't it Chris Simms who said he got paid his whole time on the forty acres? I have no problem referencing Clemson in the same breath as Texas when it comes to recruiting integrity. Clemson has been trying to push into Texas for years now, and hasn't landed shit. This year they finally landed a big name recruit that none of the locals wanted in RJ Mickens. That's not the fucking profile of a program tossing bags around. 

    No. Simms didn’t say that. And Clemson is crushing everyone this year in recruiting

    Derka's takes were often downright stupid. Like crowding a horde of Dothraki horsemen inside a castle's walls where they would have been completely useless and made things worse. He wasn't the only one with poorly thought out critiques, but he had more than anybody else.

    More.  And louder.
