pathetic...

[Prime_Shaq]

Didn't he say something like KD was the perfect fit for them or something?

[francesco totti]

is this shit for real? durant saying its toughest road..curry with this nonsense.
do they really believe what they are saying?

[TheWinningFam]

Covering for themselves for when they lose to lebron in the finals again :facepalm

[tmacattack33]

Nah, it'll be fine. Curry plays at 50% of his ability in the later end of the playoffs, as does Durant.

Put that together and you'll have a bonafide superstar.

[raprap]

Damage control :oldlol:

[Hoopz2332]

Damage control :oldlol:

:oldlol:

[red1]

I wish these guys would come out in full-blown villain mode declaring all of the rings they're going to win. Would legit have a better chance of me rooting for them.

Except KD. **** that guy. Bron handled his decision like a diva but KD somehow managed to one up him in that department. The guy LITERALLY signed with the winningest team in nba history :facepalm

[ScalsFan21]

If Kevin Durant is being genuine when he says he went there to have fun playing basketball, this should be no problem.

I can't believe they're turning to this preemptive bet-hedging already. I used to laugh when people talked about how hard Phil Jackson had it taming his locker room egos, but at least that had some validity in the way Kobe/Shaq's styles really clashed. Curry and Durant aren't like that. They're both pretty complete offensive players who can be effective without the ball in their hands, with a coach and pre-established team-oriented culture that takes precedence over any one player. In theory.

There are pretty much NO EXCUSES barring a literal TWO season-ending injuries to their top 4 guys. As the most insane compilation of talent ever assembled on one NBA roster without a single me-first guy on the team... they really should begin an IMMEDIATE run of championships with no more than a couple months learning curve. That's before even factoring in that the West is now the East in terms of sheer predictability and the fact that one of three teams capable of making even last year's GSW sweat was just gutted with this move.

Anything worse than that would really surprise me. Then again...

LeBeast.

[MintBerryCrunch]

Needs more help.

[tpols]

he's trolling yall..

[Dragonyeuw]

I can't access that site at work, but I'd be curious to know his reasons. Both of them are elite ISO and off-ball scorers, and command so much offensive attention that it's all but impossible to double one with the other on the floor, not to forget Klay waiting in the wings to capitalize on any defensive breakdown.

[JT123]

The season is well over 3 months away, and this beta is already doing damage control?! :biggums: :facepalm

[Jasper]

Covering for themselves for when they lose to lebron in the finals again :facepalm
I am wondering about that as well,, politically correct comments from them.
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[DirkNowitzki41]

Not really. Durant is the best player on that team along with Draymond. He can just take a back seat where he belongs.

Problem solved.

[Beastmode88]

They're going to be worse next year. Part of GSW's success last season was because of the depth of the bench. They traded half the bench for a 3-1 choker.

[Spurs m8]

Every day I wake up this team gets more sly and beta.

GSW choked a 3-1 themselves, including game 7 at home, so they actually traded 1 3-1 former mvp in his peak choker, for 3 bench players who are also 3-1 chokers.

GSW might have a worse record(probably), but they wont be worse 100%

[Elosha]

A little harsh, but that is funny! :cheers:

Using "fa**ot" as an insult? What are you? 12?

Young vector has been very shook today

[plowking]

Some of you really hang off the words of these athletes. Who cares how he tries to spin it. You all clearly have an opinion on the matter and you won't be swayed.

I swear most of y'all get hung up on most of the throwaway comments more so than the deliberate ones. :oldlol:

Where was this dude during games 5-7 of the finals? :roll: :roll:

[aj1987]

he's trolling yall..
I've never seen you say the same when LeBron says stuff like this.

[FKAri]

What should he say? "It's gonna be easy! Not 1 not 2 not 3..." :lol

[!@#$%Vectors!@#]

Young vector has been very shook today

rent free babu boi

[theaussieguy]

he talks for like 2 minutes, was a good answer

[warriorfan]

It may be tough merging with KD

One thing for certain though it will be tougher than LeBron merging with the 2nd and 4th highest PER in the league (D.Wade and Chris Bosh)

That would be like Steph Curry leaving Golden State and joining Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook in Oklahoma City (The 2nd and 4th highest PER in the league)

Keep melting, cucksfan. :roll: :roll:

How do you feel about Cuckery getting eviscerated by LeBron in the Finals? Let your feelings out. :roll: :roll:

[Hey Yo]

have fun with Black Falcon ******
How's LeBron's ASS taste, bitch?

[!@#$%Vectors!@#]

More Popsicles little boy. Your head is pretty cramped with all the other people you let live rent free in your head.

No excuses.

[Bosnian Sajo]

OP is a liar, Steph didn't say that anywhere in the interview. He said we gave up a lot for KD, which they did.

[Hey Yo]

Nobody's livin' there, Chico.

Not hard to remember the same dumbass parrots who say the same shit over and over until LeBron took a big shit on their face....like you, bitch!

[Orlando Magic]

OP is a liar, Steph didn't say that anywhere in the interview. He said we gave up a lot for KD, which they did.

No he's not lying, you dumb ******. "it'll be tough, nothing easy about it" in reference to merging with KD and then again at the very end of the video "at the end of the day it's going to be a tough task".

Did you even watch the ****ing video?

[TommyGriffin]

Come on Cavs fans. Let's stop melting down. Remember we won the Championship! :rockon:

[j3lademaster]

is this shit for real? durant saying its toughest road..curry with this nonsense.
do they really believe what they are saying?What are they supposed to say?

Durant: "Yeah I can't handle the pressure despite my all time level basketball ability, so I wanted to go to a team that has proven they can win even without me. And Cavs didn't court me well enough."

Curry: "Even if we win we stacked the odds so much that no one will really care."

[no pun intended]

What should he say? "It's gonna be easy! Not 1 not 2 not 3..." :lol
Was just gonna say this. Can't really say anything nowadays and not expect outrage. Damn if you do, damn if you don't.

[bluechox2]

durant " it really came down to whose dick went deeper, Draymond takes the cake, on multiple occasions"

[WolfGang]

It won't be hard. All he has to do is pass the ball to...anyone. The only starter that can't run point is Zaza. As long as they move the ball and take good shots they'll be fine and Curry knows it.

[KiiiiNG]

They lost almost everyone to get KD.

Cavs are still the favorites

[Smoke117]

The most beta sports team of all time. People bringing up their bench...lol. They have four stars (two top 5 players) that are in their primes that can all easily go 40+ in the playoffs...having a good bench means a lot more in the RS than it does the PO.

[Spurs m8]

What are they supposed to say?

Durant: "Yeah I can't handle the pressure despite my all time level basketball ability, so I wanted to go to a team that has proven they can win even without me. And Cavs didn't court me well enough."

Curry: "Even if we win we stacked the odds so much that no one will really care."

People like you are just stupid.

It's amazing the way people can twist shit and stick their head in the sand.

Yep warriors will become the unquestioned Goat team if they can beat the Champion Cavs or take a game from them.

What?

You're one of the most clueless posters on here

You talk legit shit

[KiiiiNG]

Without a bench and trying to create chemistry on the fly, it's gonna be a tough road for the Warriors.

I still say they win 65+ games and sweep the Cavs in the finals. :banana: :hammertime: :hammertime: :djparty

We gon' be eatin GOOD homie!

[warriorfan]

Golden State lost a lot of depth and LeBron still has two future Hall of Fame players (Kyrie and Kevin Love) who are both in their prime.

It will be a great achievement for Golden State if they can beat this Cleveland team.

4 current All-NBA players in the starting lineup, plus add DraYfag's All NBA defense too and then a bench player who's just 1 year removed from winning FMVP.

STACKED TO THE GILLS!

[FKAri]

Golden State lost a lot of depth and LeBron still has two future Hall of Fame players (Kyrie and Kevin Love) who are both in their prime.

Agreed. Golden State has too many losers. If Golden State can even win one game this season it will be a miracle.

Hence the * in 2015...

[warriorfan]

Hence the * in 2015...

Yes

2015 has an asterisk

2016 has an asterisk as well

We just will have to wait till 2017 to see who gets the legit championship

[Spurs m8]

Nah, 2016 was legit and one of the greatest efforts yet.

From a neutral stand point, anyway...
