    under armour stock has lost half its value since the apex of the warriors hype when they were gunning for the 72-10 record

    cant tell me that a huge chunk of that isnt due to nike taking UA prized possession and stamping a giant swoosh on it

    steph has gone from the face of the nba to a very clear second banana on his own team

    even if he is okay with that move i have to think his corporate overlords at UA are going to be telling him he needs to make a move and the bulls to go play for fred hoiberg are the obvious move

    Yeah there is a lengthy thread on this on RealGM as well.


    And I don't think it's just his pr/endorsement team feeling the shift in a negative way. I think Steph is as well. Now I don't think it's enough for him to be like ? it and murk in FA. Or be outwardly disgruntled but Steph smug and arrogant in his own way.

    KD/Steph basically Bron/Kyrie dynamic but Bron Kyrie flows seamlessly because Bron the OG figure where as Kyrie the young gun. Steph and KD same age so him being the 2 after being the man is lowkey ether. Perception a ?

    What teams do y'all watch the most outside of your own teams?

    i'ma just be real and say i dont watch no other teams outside the pelicans

    i'm already strapped for time, so i dont have the time to invest into knowing about other teams players unless they are playing the pelicans

    i think its dope that some of ya'll have knowledge of other teams basis and can provide analysis, but uhh...if they aint caaaawin...i aint following

    Ahhhh okay I feel sorry that that's the only team you watch. It's like I tell my mom who's a jets fan. You don't even know what real football looks like. Then again it's your team so you enjoying it

    i dont have the time brah...lol

    thats all

    i mean, i watch the "must see" games, but i aint checking for boston on a tuesday night

    no diss to axel, but thats just the first team that came to mind

    they actually played on tuesday night and I lost a ? ' avi bet to a game Axel didn't even watch

    Lol I was gone off hooping and smoking gorilla glue

    Lol I remember saying wall was better at playmaking bruh said what is playmaking, how do u measure that

    My ? you don't know ? about basketball, there's no disrespect when I tell you this but just facts

    I don't even have to remember that conversation to know you couldn't define playmaking. Name somebody Wall makes better. Beal play better w/o him

    Name them in your head though cause like I said I'm not talking about that ? anymore

    When you can tell me about Mike Conley game, we can have a convo

    ? , didn't I tell u u not allowed to complain, what do u ever say besides trading lillard, ? riding KD, or calling folks pg that don't play the position, u have no knowledge and have never said anything of substance so u not allowed to complain n I ain't gon tell yo ? NO MO.

    j0ubvxkusf9c.jpg

    Take yo ass elsewhere if folks not talking enough ball to school u. ? make u think I want a convo with s2j offspring

    perception is a mfer cause i just looked up their shot attempts

    kd 17.1
    steph 16.8

    curry isnt exactly playing second fiddle

    he and kd are essentially taking the same amount of shots

    curry flat out just isnt shooting as good as he did last year

    if he did then he would be leading the team in scoring

    weve honestly seen the last 2 years that steph cant carry them past cleveland -- he hasnt played great -- kd would 'seem' to be the guy -- the year they won it iggy and others carried the load -- no shame in that if come june kd is option 1a and steph is 1b -- probably how it should be due to matchups and kd getting easier buckets

    we'll see how it all play out

    media narratives are a trip

    last year warriors were 10-1 vs the top 3 squads record wise
    this year the warriors are 0-3 vs the top 3 teams in the league (cavs, spurs, rockets)

    last night vs the raptors they blew a 17 point lead
    xmas day they blew a 14 point lead

    the only constant is the Lake show giving them the L's HA!!

    anyway, last year who was the team who led the lead in 4th qtr collapses all season with over 10?? the Thunder ...led by MVP KD

    and now KD is the best player on GS this season!!

    but but Russ hold him back! at some point it's a YOU problem!!

    KD drop 36 and 15 but didn't make a shot last 5 min of xmas day game !! we gon see if things change in the finals !!

    The media choose Durant and scapegoated Westbrook every chance the got. Skip Bayless is to blame as well. I remember Tony Allen and Shawn Marion big boying him and pushing him to the 3 point line years ago. Everyone ignored it. Blamed harden for the finals loss like Durant wasn't bullshitting too. He a 7ft 2 guard who scared of contact.

    The pistons have been stinking it up. I haven't been watching them play since I'm living in ATL. I had a feelong this player was the cause and its true. Reggie Jackson is a cancer in the locker room and on the floor.

    The losing started when he came back. I've read 2 articles about reggie jackson and the beef with his teammates.

    They even uploaded a video when a play wasn't called for him and he jogged to the corner and just stood there. We were playing much better with ish smith
