Guest Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Even though he would never go here, I'm surprised Houston isn't on the list lol. He's not going to the Warriors, no way. He is all Nike and Curry is UA. I agree with what was said by analysts that brands compete just as much a NBA teams and you can't have them on the same team. Nike will prevent Durant from going to GS because of their hate for UA. Personally i think FUBU should get involved...or should I say BUFU (by us F*ck you)...lol.

So UA vs Nike has completely removed Adidas and Reebok who many years ago replaced Converse with help from Nike. I certainly don't want to see KD added to the Warriors mix so whatever keeps him away from them is fine with me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hylndr11 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 seriously something wrong with this league as it is - the players control it and its a shame but its not anyones fault really, free market. But if Durant goes to GS nah, f*** that I cant watch the product anymore thats just ludicrous. Im really tired of GS and was pulling for CLE to get a ring, they never had one, lets not act like Curry doesnt cry he is so aloof and acts like the underdog non ego guy. I think GS is the team to hate going forward, its crazy how many ppl turned on them this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Afro Posted June 25, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 People always looking for a reason to hate curry. Smh. Look at how that guy acts compared to nearly every other star save Durant. It's night and day. Does he get annoyed on the court at times? Absolutely. We ALL do. Don't lie and say you haven't acted a little bratty on the court, but there's a HUGE difference between what he and Durant do and what other stars do. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truth is that anyone who is on top for an extended period of time will be hated. There don't have to be any valid reasons. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There don't have to be any valid reasons. GS is taking over the hate that people used to have for SA. It's not really about their players. It's about the fact that they win so much. Lebron gets a universe full of unwarranted hate, but he has done a lot more than any warrior player to garner criticism. I like Lebron, but I lost a TON of respect for him with the way he has disrespected Kevin Love AFTER he was responsible for bringing him to Cleveland. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hylndr11 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I dont hate Curry, but love Durant - you guys need context - Lebron was chosen from early age being put on the pedestal people always at him with expectations, your going to handle that differently, Curry came outta nowhere and is a darling, fine I really liked him and was a big fan, and he did a great post game presser, but he was also raised around rich people and comes from the total opposite angle Lebron had. Think about context, When lebron messes up or did something growing up not of what the path said he should be doing, ppl are going to drag him down because it should be so easy for him to fill the expectations - Curry on the other hand, when he does what he does its shocking, or when he does somehting wrong its like, ahhh atta boy get up chin up try again ur a great sport. CONTEXT. I dont think Durant, Curry or Lebron are at all bad guys and they all have to deal with crazy expectations, I was just saying Curry isnt this perfect angel a lot of ppl think he is.

Thomas Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 When Al and KD were rookies they were battling it out for rookie of the year. Remember I was screaming that Al is good at so many different parts of the game and that KD was just a skinny chucker. Heart does affect the thought process a lot of times. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnice Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Oh no, don't bring up the rookie year. I still have a memory of Kevin hitting a game winner over Al, lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Curry got it from the 'old heads' too. That was VERY unusual, especially considering that he was playing the sport like a video game at the time. He literally couldn't be stopped. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afro Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I hope the Hawks are the ones that said, nahhhh. If Durant said no Atlanta, wtf. I'm getting tired of the disrespect. It's not even warranted. We're the second best "team" coming at him after GS. Well and OKC. No other team can put an all star front court and an up and coming PG beside him. AND we're in the east. We're better than ducking Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
