The Official Dwayne Wade <<<<<< you thread

Can't argue with any of this tbh.

I must say though my optimistic heart and mind is saying Steph is just taking it easy throughout the 3/4 of the regular season or maybe even all of it. I think he knows this and he will try to make things right his way by saving up for the playoffs and the finals.

The thing will be as I've mentioned before to try to find the right line between doing what's best for his legacy and doing the right thing for the team so that they can actually win the Chip.

Oh and how huge is this gap in excitement and tension between Cavs-Dubs games and the rest of the teams in the NBA.

Could watch a Cavs-Dubs matchup every other day tbh.

Zaza

Melo

So I was just thinking about this now after watching videos of how KD move has caused Curry's drop in numbers and in turn has affected him not being the face of the NBA anymore, and how this is a bad thing for Under Armour, the young kids who looked up to him so much, etc etc etc.

And I thought of this hypothetical for 5 years into the future of the NBA.
It's no myth we got two powerhouses in the NBA at the moment who are clearly the top dogs in the West and East, and we're just waiting for the finals, all due respect to Toronto and San Antonio because they do well keeping up such fantastic regular season records.

Let's say this super-manufactured and managed team in the Dubs win the next 3 championships, which is the sort of thing that they were built for in the first place. Or maybe just 2 out of the next 3. Certainly a possible thing.
So let's then say Curry decides that he wants to do something more to build on his reputation and legacy. He decides he wants to move. Klay also decides he wants to show off his shooting prowess elsewhere and help another team out to fight for the chip. The Warriors break up, Durant stays at GS, Klay moves to Lakerland who by now are a solid team and Curry??? Pls don't mention Charlotte, he would at least have to have 1 or 2 relevant players around him to fight for the Chip. So where does Curry move to?
I was thinking Boston, but I just can't imagine the easy-going light skin California guy in Boston. So I was thinking this Clippers team that will never ever do something break up. Steph moves there, maybe CP3 stays and becomes the more than able understudy. Maybe even plays at point and let Steph be the shooting guard Get Cousins in at the Clippers as well and find some two other big forwards who are good at defending. LeBron retires leaving Kyrie as the main man at Cleveland, however I can't see Kyrie carrying them to Chip victory on his own throughout a playoff run so he would need help, maybe then in Anthony Davis? By now the Bucks and Timberwolves are well-oiled machines led by Giannis and KAT respectively, and who knows, maybe Westbrook or Harden end up at one of them as well. Philly are still growing perhaps, or maybe Embiid decides he wants to move to the ever consistent Spurs and breathe some new life into them. The talent would be spread out more evenly across the NBA board, how would things turn out? Who would win the Chip then? Would the NBA be more fun?
