Holy shit you're retarded. How old are you, kid?

Give a response and engage in a debate or fuck off, you moron.

Form a response to the topic, you dickhead.

Lot of love around today.

As soon as they gave a mid-30's Chris Paul that contract they were in trouble.

 

[tlance]

I don't think that's the point.

No, it kind of is though.

If Hakeem were a free agent and had approached the Bulls after '96 and said he wanted to join them, do you think Reinsdorf would have said no?

Front offices try to make their teams better. That is their job.

This is what happens when you have an obsession with beating one opponent in particular and then proceed to get dicked down by said opponent for five straight years.

Shit gets tense.

Actually no, the point was to give an example of how unfairly better a team in the past would like if they added an MVP to their roster. I gave that example of the Bulls because of who I was responding to so he could envision it more easily.

So you think at a certain level it's unfair for a team to try to get better?

 

[Bart]

Depends, but if that better makes that team unfairly better than anyone else in the league then yes.

Where does that line happen, "unfairly"? Besides the Ws of course, how do we decide if a team is too good to be allowed to get better?

Since it would be rare, it would be on a case by case basis.

It sounds like sour grapes.

Has it ever happened before the Ws just did it?

ROFL...Sour grapes?...no..lol.. Any astute basketball fan knows how unfair that signing was.

Again, has any other signing ever been unfair, before that one?

Who cares? That doesn't take away from my point.

Actually it does. You are trying to make a general case that at some 'rare' level teams are too good to be allowed to get better, but really you are just bitching about the Warriors. A team that lost in the playoffs and then tried to improve to get back to winning them.

No it doesn't. When a 73 win team, no matter who that team is, adds an MVP in their prime there is something wrong with that. That's pretty easy to understand even for the slowest of NBA fans.

So your answer is, it has only happened once. Sorry Warriors, you lost. Gotta run it back.

And no other team has ever been good enough to not be allowed to improve. Welp, your argument has been made. Not convincing, sorry.
