How would you view Hayward going to the Celtics? They were the #1 seed after all.
Rumours floating that Cavs might try trade Love for George (if he and Lebron dont try team up in LA 2 years from now). That move would swing balance back to Cavs again.
Hayward isnât Durant. Heâd make them better, but Celtics still wouldnât beat Cavs.
If Cavs can land Anthony Davis, George, KAT, theyâll compete with GSW, otherwise were in for more of the same next year. Injuries is only thing that will roll them UNLESS some more Pop magic.
Pretty Similar, itâs not like the Jazz arnt in a good spot and with another year of development they could pass the celts
But not as bad that warriors team sans KD had the best record OF ALL TIME
The only scenario that would have been truely comparable was if Lebron went and joined the Lakers instead of the Heat, and even then that lakers team was not as good as GSW are
I really donât get all the angst/dislike about KD going to The WarriorsâŚhe gave The Thunder 9 years and they couldnât get it rightâŚso like a heap of guys before him, he saw an option that gave him a chance of winning the title and he took it.
Iâm not a Warriors fan but I love the team theyâve put together and now itâs up to the other 29 teams to come up with a way to beat themâŚand maybe that means the standard of play will improve and other teams will realise that you have to play as a team, sharing the ball, the shots and ultimately the glory.
KD was the difference between The Warriors winning and losing this yearâŚhe stood up big time in the big moments of the biggest gamesâŚso as far as Iâm concerned, massive kudos to himâŚ
Spurs will have 2 * All-NBA & 2*All-Star calibre players . Itâs [quote=âbenfti, post:716, topic:3671â]
going to create a massively lop sided league

The NBA was infinitely better when 5-6 teams could contend and 20 or so has a real shot at the post season.
Itâs not th Warriors fault. They just took the quad aces they pulled on the flop. But trust me Wes you would be as â â â â â â at the rest of us 5 years ago if KD up and joined the Heat
