2017 NBA Offseason Thread

Eh.... You're right. It's gonna be close though.

The gap has certainly shrunk (and could continue to do so).

WTF di you tag me? WTF does this got to do with me?

Last I checked I'm not a Cavs fan...

Because I want to see if you wish an amputated leg on Kyrie for wanting to go elsewhere when he's still under contract.

Nuggets weren't on Kyrie's list, so he just may.

Pacers are on there, right?

It is understandable though. Cleveland has failed to put a quality team around Kyrie so he wants to win.

Oh no wait. I got him and PG13 confused. Kyrie wants to pile up stats.

Yep, and it's probably all that mean old @tlance fault.

Yeah, this kid is unreal.

I honestly get him wanting to escape this shit show before LeBron blows town.

But, it's becoming increasingly clear that this is not the reason he wants out.

He is uber-Marbury from the Timberwolves days.

But, this is 100 times worse because he is winning at a high level.

.....And would rather lose and be the man.

Selfish, selfish, selfish....

Spurs, Knicks, Wolves, Heat

He signed his last deal to be the man in Cleveland before Lebron decided to leave Miami for Cleveland. Would you want to spend all of your prime years being second fiddle if you feel if you're truly a lead star? He has mentioned several times that he has to tone down his game to play the way Lebron wants to. It's not about money, he gets that either way.

He's lost as the second fiddle 2 out of 3 years (and one less Draymond outburst likely makes that 3 out of 3). He wants his own up tempo team built around him.

Besides, we all know Lebron is going to hang him out to dry after the season anyway.

Dad's getting old.....first break in the action of cleaning out/inventorying the garage.......couple hours in......25-30 years ago first break wouldn't be until we're 4-5 hours in.....lucky me. This is more exercise than I'm used to getting. But, it is gonna be hot as fuck......thank god for the swamp cooler in the garage.

Agree if that's the reason.

But, he is barely into his prime and wanted to leave after winning the Finals last Season.

That screams selfish and me first.

I guess he has his ring. So, stats are more important than winning.

Yep, and it's probably all that mean old @tlance fault.

It is actually.

I was talking to Kyrie last week. At the time, Denver was number 2 on his list behind SA. But then, I showed him the PG13 tweet from Hurricane and he said he didn't want to mess with any team that had fans like that.

Man, that would be hilarious if it were true.

Most kids choose to pattern their games after their favorite NBA players. I choose to pattern mine after Woody Harrelson.

Probably not the best choice in hindsight.

He certainly was!

Not until Lebron leaves IMO.

I agree. Without Kyrie the gap closes quite a bit tbough.
