kd just flipped a track thats been flipped but flipped it better
the principle was the very same
marquee players teaming up to better their chances for a championship
in both instances lebron and kd wanted cake walks to championships
look at these goofy ass mogs
rising out of the stage floor and ?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFkwgtRyfos
they did undertakers wrestlemania 25 entrance to announce their singing to miami
like they literally held a summer jam concert talking about how many championships they were going to win before they played 1 game
the warriors unfair dominance only sticks out because the heat underachieved and got taken to 7 by teams that were beneath them
we look at the heat coming together and their label as superteam differently if they beat dallas but since they chocked some can say they werent -

interesting
kyrie is really the perfect second star for lebron in a lot of ways
yet
they might need to trade him if they want to beat this gs team
on the low it says a lot that the only way kyrie can impact a game is by hitting a bunch of incredibly difficult shots
lebron a smart dude so i know that thought crosses his mind even when he see kyrie is killing ? -
KD did what he had to do and got his ring. Now he going for Legacy. barring injuries to the core they can run off a 3 peat. Happy for its KD and Steph time!!!

Y'all having selective memory.What lebron and durant did was the same(joined all stars in their primes) ? just mad durant took it to another level.
Nah it's not the same at all. Leaving Cleveland to go to a team where your starting PG is Mario Chalmers ain't the same as going to a team where your starting PG is the reigning 2x MVP
Naw he went to a shooting guard who had won a ring and finals mvp. Ur just moving the goal post.
That same Finals MVP hadn't been out the first round in how many years before LeBron and Bosh came?
Like i said, bron set the precedent.
Kd one upped him but they did the same aside from irrelevant variables. For the record im glad bron went to miami and got a ring. I wanted him to win in the finals this year and farther his legacy but im not mad at kd putting his career in his hands either.
Whatever u feel keep the ? consistent.
If u think kd copped out ima need u to feel the same toward lebron its more respectable at least.
? a 2x MVP in Steph, one of the best 2 way players in the game in Klay, and a possible DPOY in Draymond aren't just "irrelevant variables" lol. Like I said I got no issue with the move but don't downplay the Warriors being a 73 win squad before he joined. Them ? was great before, added KD and got even greater.
Right, kd teamed up with superstars.
As did lebron.
Youre just talking specifics theres really no difference, kd just did it with a better team thats all.
The specifics is where the differneces are though... -
This ? KD said Kyrie is better than Iverson.. smh.. *facepalm* Bruh..

Kyrie is a better shooter than Iverson, 3 inches taller, better finisher at the rim
Iverson had higher degree of difficulty at 5'11 165lbs - to this day never seen anything like it, it'd be like isiah Thomas doing it for 12 years straight
I don't think Kyrie can lead a team as the 1 option, he looks this good cuz of the luxury of playing with Bron -
As good as Kyree is as a finisher, he's not great as a leader, which AI was.
If Bron leaves, or Kyree gets traded, when Kyree can lead a team to a plus .500 record for a season - let alone to the NBA Finals - we'll talk.
Let's look at both of their first three years and their teams:
Kyree:

Ehhh .... I don't know about that.
He's an All-Timer though and one of the most skilled offensive scorers at his position I've ever seen. -
Shoutout to AI shooting like mudiay from three

Kyrie without LeBron on that exact same team those guys would be lucky to win 30-35 games.
He's one of the most prolific scorers I've ever seen from that position when he asserts himself, but he's not the type of guy I believe can carry a team. He's a one trick pony.
He's not a great passer or rebounder either. He's a volume shooter and iso's to much. He's an excellent second offensive option though.
He'd just be another guy putting up numbers on a trash team basically. -

I'll never have anuthing bad to say about livingston how he came back after that knee injury -
Durant said kyrie is more skilled offensively than iverson.That's a fact
Better handles,better iso game,better footwork,better finisher with both hands,better 3 point shooter,better jumper.Iverson had speed on kyrie that's it. -
heard sumn crazy about how kyrie is able to finish so well using the backboard - it stems from him having to use a broken backboard as a kid so he had to learn how to finish using all kinds of different weird angles and spins on the ball. Also when he releases the ball for a layup his arm (either one) is extended out fully horizontally so he doesnt just go up vertically with it..its crazy how much he would of had to practice to perfect all of his different kinds of layups man
crazy. -
Yeah that and dribbling with the basketball in a plastic bag
