Ladies and numales, allow me to introduce you to the greatest NBA team of all time
Ladies and numales, allow me to introduce you to the greatest NBA team of all time
Too bad the team has zero balls come playoff time.
>No big men
>No bench
>3 players that need the ball in their hands to be effective
It's the 2012 Thunder all over again.
They will melt the second it becomes physical
LeGOAT please save us from this evil
players that need the ball in their hands to be effective
that's literally the least accurate thing that's ever been said about anything
steph is a master of playing off-ball, and klay literally plays off-ball 99% of the time
LITERALLY NO ONE CAN STOP THEM
post yfw Legod wins another for DA LAND anyways
>no bench
Aren't they just losing Barnes, who they'd have to overpay anyways and was probably gone; and Bogut, who is nearly useless most of the time?
I was reading they got Iggy and Livingston still somehow. If you figure out a way to keep Barbosa, you got your three key bench players still.
it would be more accurate to say, all three are perimeter players. all three can drive but not well compared to what they're known for. a good defensive team would smother them on the perimeter making it difficult for them to swing the ball around and they's have to be doing a hell of a lot of swinging with that many perimeter players. they need draymond to play like a point guard and be a more consistent offensive threat to make the whole thing work.
this is worst case scenario of course, eg, in the playoffs against a team exploiting them night in night out. they should roll any team in the regular season.
Who's going to rebound?
steph shot over 60% on his drives
regardless you are a literal moron if you think kd isnt an improvement from harrison barnes
who's going to miss?
Is draymond green staying?
>mfw phil becomes gm/coach for the knicks and institutes classic triangle offense and destroys the warriors with big man ball
So who they losing?
Draymond led the team last season
barnes and probably bogut
kd most likely will be coming off the bench, kevon looney will start
Should Timberwolves try to get Bogut?
That's cute, there's like 3 Hall-of-famers in that picture.
Here's 9.
>kevon looney
Who? That nigga? He looks like he's got zika or some shit with those spots on his skin.
>The primary mandate I had for myself in making this decision was to have it based on the potential for my growth as a player
So standing on the perimeter chucking 3s the rest of your career counts as "growth".
>that's literally the least accurate thing that's ever been said about anything
this way of speaking pisses me off so much. it just sounds so dumb. i understand its supposed to be exaggerating but it just sounds retarded
>who's going to miss?
In the playoffs? Curry, Thompson, Durant
Thank you Based God
there's also 16 people in that picture.
...
Damian jones
>jiggaboojam
and yet they still have draymond green so it's literally impossible for ANYONE to like or respect them.
>KD was wowed by clippers
how cursed would the clippers have been if KD went to clips?
There were like 50 players in the league and half the players pictured are only HoF because of rings
When did the NBA become so soft? I've never seen such a collection of pussies as the "stars" that run the league now.
I sort of forgave him after he went back to congratulate the Cavs.
Clean slate next season.
Remove the 3 suits and the manager in the top right and you have 9/12 players.
>When did the NBA become so soft?
When they were done with your mother.
KD doesn't fit the current GSW team comp. There I said it.
Its hilarious that fans still get mad over shit like this when a lot of people only grade players careers on how many pieces of jewelry they have to wear on their fingers.
You can't shit on them for not having any then complain when they put themselves in the best position to acquire them.
If you want to blame anyone then blame Jordan and his billion dollar marketing empire for making championships the only measure of a player.
Jordan is a pussy for going to the Bulls too.
I don't get it
Obviously you can shit on them for going to a team that is already favored to win next year just so that you can say you won a ring.
>"nba is so soft these days" says young skinnyfat numale
WHO WOULD WIN
this gsw team
or the proposed super team of Lebron/Wade/Melo/cp3 and maybe bosh
honestly if i was kd i don't know if i could resist going to GS either, this is a chance to be an integral part of the greatest team ever. why wouldn't you want that?
Bron shits on any of those meme chucking betas. kd the biggest beta of them all now. he just showed that
is this cultural appropriation?
So now best teams AREN'T about the rings?
Regardless, these guys would eventually get Don Nelson some years after that picture and he couldn't even stay more than 15 mpg on the court despite averaging a 20p 10r per 36. That is stacked.
>Lebron
>Curry
>KD
>Rose
>Carmelo
it's fucking pathetic
players even 10 years ago would chew these guys up
>"nba players were so much bigger and tougher when i was in elementary school" says young skinnyfat numale
well it's true, your memes aside
Tfw you talk smack your entire career then become irrelevant and with nothing to show for it
He just constantly does sleazy shit, like cursing out other players families.
>players even 10 years ago would chew these guys up
Playing under today's rules?
Were you watching then? Who fucking cares? That team is irrelevant now
>Kevin Durant coming off bench
into the trash it goes
Starting 5 will be:
Curry
Klay
Iggy
KD
Draymond
barnes and ai are gone, lad
They will sign anderson for the vet min now
LeBron and KD would have both already shattered Kareem's scoring record if they played with zone defense being illegal. Melo would be considered an all time great.
>team existed before color photographs
>t-t-they're relevant, I swear!
i hope lebron murders the entire gsw lineup and then the fans
>"I wasn't there so it never happened"
>"b-but r-r-relevance"
Post says:
>the greatest NBA team of all time
Learn to read and stop moving goalposts, buckfois.
How long until Westbrook comes to his senses and leaves okc?
today
when he doesn't make the playoffs next season
he'll probably go to the cavs
If that happens then we can just skip regular season + playoffs and go straight to the finals of GSW vs Cavs. All star games will be the same.
They can't play consistent defense and they have no interior Presense
Iggy can't play that much at 33 either
>steph shot over 60% on his drives
irrelevant. he gets that off cheesing shitters with his three. come crunch time his dribble drive game isn't enough. think lebron or mj. he doesn't have anywhere near that.
>regardless you are a literal moron if you think kd isnt an improvement from harrison barnes
irrelevant again and never said that. it's physically difficult to distribute the ball around three perimeter players in crunch time without a player who can drive and kick at an elite level like bron, mj, etc.
and and as stated, this is worst case scenario. theg will obviously faceroll most teams.
cavs won't even be there
Average height peaked in the early 2000's. We're around the 90s level height now.
Oh fuk my jaw just dropped
Barnes, Bogut, and Ezeli
All they have left is Draymond for rim protection and look where that got them
Physically current superstars are superior. Mentally they would get destroyed
BREAK NEWS
RUSSELL WESTBROOK SIGNS A TWO YEAR DEAL WITH THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS AT $60 MILLION.
Losing Barnes automatically makes them better. Fuck he's bad. He was okay during the regular season, but he should not be starting on a 73 win team.
But bogut is the only one who went to the mavs so far. If Barnes stays...what next?
His contract isnt up for another year you titanic faggot
Its weird players can just cherry pick championships instead of working for it. I dont think any sports in the US does it so belligerently. This is because blacks occupy critical positions. The NBA is niggerish I guess.
Barnes is gone to mavs. 4 yr 94 mil.
Where they at? Are they behind the Golden State Warriors in this picture? Did Draymond Green eat them?
Barnes isnt staying
Where haa it been confirmed? So far the only news about warriors leaving since acquiring KD is bogut to the mavs.
Yes, yes, well done, Warriors.
HOWEVER
>Barnes, Bogut, and Ezeli
They were all dogshit during the playoffs; and it still came down to the finial minutes of game 7.
Didn't Bogut average like 8 minutes? And Ezeli fucked over their lead in the finial minutes of game 7.
>All they have left is Draymond for rim protection and look where that got them
They could've done it if he was there for game 5 and they could've done it in game 7. Those 3 guys were almost a non-factor in the series.
This is a direct upgrade. And if it means losing those three, especially if you had to match Barnes bullshit contract, then it didn't come at that much of a risk.
he's a great player, probably top 3 all time, but he sucks as a GM
the team around him is ass
>faggot OP says greatest team of time
>they end up getting swept by the Thunder
Why would any NBA GM even pick up their phone to help Golden State create cap space? Do they want to help them win?
Because Mark Cuban is retarded
I don't think you could possibly curse the Clippers more than they are now. Unless there's some kind of double down effect
lol russel westbrook is honestly a downgrade from kyrie irving
russel westbrook cant work with other stars, he's meant to be the leader of an 8 seed team
He'd be stupid not to take it, GS will never give him that much money, especially now that they have KD
even without KD, the finals were still most likely gonna be cavs vs warriors again, maybe cavs vs thunder
it's not like the timberwolves think they have a chance as long as kd stays in thunder. shit teams are going to do whatever they have to to get better players.
It'd be a game. But I don't think anything can stop the Warriors now.
>3 Hall-of-famers
Klay is a "hall of famer" now?
Thankfully that's why the Warriors have a tactic called the illegal screen.
>Bogut
>dogshit
You're too stupid to live. Bogut getting hurt was the reason they got reamed by Lebron, the finals will be a cakewalk for the Cavs.
He means Draymond
>numale
Westbrook will go to the Blazers and shit all over golden showers
True dat. It'd be hilarious if the NBA, "updated" the illegal screen rules for this season to fuck over the screen and chuck meme.
Except draymond. Too much balls for him
