Steph crawled on his knees to go to the hamptons and recruit Kevin Durant after 2016.
Steph is also implicated and guilty in this super team business.

Bron did it first
And plus Steph got one without team hopping or signing big FA’s

Meltdown. LeBron did not do it first. He was responding to the Celtics.

LeBron was kinda the pioneer of players taking matters into their own hands.
Kevin Garnett was crying on TV, but the GM of Boston put it together.

Bron built the banana boat and got criticized, and then all the superstars built their own banana boats.

LeBron did it in his prime though
btw Kobe responded by just beating them

To be fair, he did last a decade with them tho. Something rarely seen anymore.

Naturally, since he's a big part of a successful foundation. Regardless, he still hasn't made the playoffs yet without klay. :ohwell:

Curry was 28 and just won the MVP in 2016.
Durant was 27 and won the MVP 2 years prior in 2016.
Magic and Bird played with the most stacked teams of the 80s, why didn't those 2 decide to join shitty teams?
LeBron joined a dog shit team 2014 Cavs and 2018 Lakers so he's paid his dues.

No one ever jumped ship and formed a superteam at age 25 before LeBron
Dude was the straight OG of running from the grind

The word colluding is so hilarious in 2023, it's almost like people were unable to escape their own narratives. Dame just hadn't seen the end of his career approaching yet like Kg etc. Lebron and Wade did it the smartest and gave us 4 highly entertaining years as a result. It worked well for Kd and Steph too but beyond that not so much....

Do you have some kind of source that shows that Curry actively recruited Durant, or are you just making stuff up like the insecure Bronie fluffer that you are?

Bruh. They drafted a point guard this year with the no.2 pick no less.
It was time for him to go.

Lebron is a coward. He stacked the deck after losing with HCA to Dwight Howard a career loser.

Notice how he has the shameless audacity to call op 'insecure' when the jizzrag himself literally 5*'s his own garbage threads immediately after creating them out of fear that other people will 1* those. What a hypocrite douche. :lol
(Cue in his usual butthurt response several hours later)

If you were to erase everything in your head and just listen to me you would be a lot smarter than you are now.
The first conversation with all of us was in the Hamptons," Green said in February. "[Durant] asked us, 'How do I fit in? Y'all have won a championship. Y'all just lost in Game 7.' And Steph goes in there and says, 'I'm not worried about being the face of the team. We want you here with us.'

Lillard is a massive hypocrite, he took a full max money from Portland while singing the songs of loyalty. Then 1 year later he cries all over social media and demands a trade to a team that just made the NBA finals twice in 4 years.
Contracts mean nothing to him. Give him all the money, AND the destination he wants to go to.
LeBron and Wade linked up in free agency. It's called "Free Agency" for a reason.

Seriously he played in Portland 11 years and now all of a sudden he is a hypocrite? His team wants to rebuild with young players. He didn't bail on the team, the team bailed on him.

Yep, I didn't think so.
8ball is just an insecure, triggered Bronie who has to try to disparage other stars to prop up his hero. And when it doesn't work he throws bitch fits stamps his feet. :roll:

Lol. Grasping at straws as usual. He met with the whole team. "Bu-bu-bu-bu-but Curry crawled on his knees to get KD!!!! :cry:"
You really are an idiot. :lol

So basically, branstans are acknowledging that bran would have had the same career trajectory as lillard had he not initiated the superteam, jump-ship culture in miami :roll:
No one will ever top the Warriors with a 70+ win team full of all stars begging KD to join them to beat Lebron with a bunch of G leaguers lol. There will never be a bigger bitc* move in NBA history.
While Bron joined 3 teams on losing records, Dame just joined the number 1 seed and so did KD. That's the ultimate puss* move...

The biggest bitch move is the first one. The 2011 MIA Heatles. Lol at his stans forgetting the magnitude of that one to the point that the KD move to GSW was no longer unexpected.

2010 Decision was the smartest basketball decision in the history of basketball.
Now every single superstar learned from Bran to take matters into their own hands.
Not all of them were blessed with superteam builder GM's like Jerry Krause.

Well well well. Looks like he was a hypocrite the entire time.
They drafted a PG and the organization was going to move on. Lillard said Miami or rescind the trade. Portland wanted to do right by him and send him to a contender. He wasn’t stacking the deck talent wise through collusion and forming super teams elsewhere every 4 years. Or joining the team that just beat him.

"Trade me to a team that just made the finals"
"If that doesn't work, trade me to a team that just won almost 60 games"

Not all of them were blessed with superteam builder GM's like Jerry Krause.the decision was a horrible move. Miami was only a super team for one season. 2012 and 13 were pretty average casts for a contender. Roy Hibbert was looking like prime KAJ out there, Lebron didn’t make winning any easier… outside of 2011 where admittedly he shat the bed.
