Do you think Kawhi should be called the GOAT if he wins another title in a different team?
That will be his third team and if he does win this question will really pop out.

He deserved that title if he would able to make that team to either get into finals or get that championship trophy on

next season and with those line up are definitely the defensive ones with corresponding good offensive too.
West powerhouse teams are scattering on the field,we are all surprised how these rosters is possible.

At the stage of his career, I have qualms of tagging him as the GOAT. Of course being the GOAT is debatable, but it is too early to say that he can be mentioned in the same breath as Jordan or even Bryant. So let's see how he and Paul George will do as a tandem in Clippers uniform.

Well you got some point here and the other member said above and being GOAT isn't only be pointed out easily but it would be

needed for the entire basketball enthusiast to recognized such spot.I cant see on him to level with Jordan or Kobe but all of things do have the perfect time.

Not yet a GOAT for me, but sooner as more achievement he will get, we can call him as GOAT.
He won the championship without much stars playing with him, therefore I believe his chance with the Clippers to win a championship is bigger compared to the Raptors. Lebron is already a GOAT but he is not getting any younger, It's Kawhis time now if we are looking for a complete player who can carry his team alone.

I'm sorry to disagree. Him being the greatest of all time just because he won another ring with a team?

He is an elite basketball player but I would not consider him the greatest yet. He did accomplished a lot already, and he needs more if he wanted to be the "G-O-A-T".

I would be biased here Grin

, Michael Jordan is the GOAT for me even if Leonard will win a championship next season. The guy is admirable but he has yet to proved that he is the GOAT.

A lot of debate about this matter for years and years and it will not stop. Everyone has their own meaning of being the GOAT, stats, records, championship, MVP, being a player, there is a lot. Also, we don't need to compare past players to new players since all of the players we have right now is the improved players based on the plays and games they've watched in the past. They've improved, rules changed like the hand-check foul. If there will be a GOAT, there will be one with every season or every era.

We've got some how news, Westbrook is being considered to let go by the Thunders.

Do you think they will let him go?

I think it's about time for Westbrook to leave or at least trade by OKC. He is still at the peak, very athletic but he is more of a statistical guy. He can't deliver even with Paul George around it. OKC should shop and look for a better trade and rebuild OKC now.

He will be traded I guess, that's gonna be a good decision for the team, Westbrook can only win if he is playing with a real star like Durant, now the question is where he would land, hopefully not in LA as they all have full of stars already, bring this man to the east and to the team that wants a one man show.

The management is the one who is thinking of trading him. He needs a good team and I think you're right with that because this guy has been trying hard although he's not left with his past teammates.

But I think time will come that the spotlight will be pointed on him.

Well if Kawhi get another ring after a maiden season with a new team then he could be in the discussion as one of the GOAT. But we all know that in the upper echelon of the discussions, there is Michael Jordan and then Lebron or either Kobe a far second, but arguably he can be in the top 5 or 10 if he can do it.

One good question for all of us.

Do you think Kawhi should be called the GOAT if he wins another title in a different team?
That will be his third team and if he does win this question will really pop out.

I want to see a healthy Kawhi this whole season so we could see the numbers of him with his stats.
But next to it, I also want to see him play again in the Finals.
There is a lot of chance for it to happen.
Kawhi, PG13 and Patrick Beverley. Those guys are defensive specialists. I just said it here that defense wins a championship and now you put guys who love playing defense in one team? Wow!
With the addition of a hall of famer coach Doc Rivers. They are the elite team now.

Oh and dont forget this man.
The three-time Sixth Man of the Year winner Lou Williams.

Last season he didn't "went to raptors" because he was traded which means he had no say in going wherever he wants, this season was the only season he was capable of picking his team and since we all know he loves his family a lot and wants to play in LA of course many people thought he would go to Lakers. For two reasons, one is Lakers is the big team in LA for years and they have won a lot of championships and have Lebron and AD so they thought Kawhi would want it, plus nobody really knew PG13 was coming to Clippers which was the biggest shock.

Now, they have Patrick Beverly and PG13 and Kawhi. That is by far the best defensive three I have seen since 2004 pistons man, tell me in these past 15 years any better defensive trio in the world, its going to be really fun to watch this team lock everyone down.

Lakers just signed Boogie as per Woj - https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1147575087140417536

Truth be told I like how he and AD fit/mesh in New Orleans prior to his Achilles injury. Lakers roster doesn't look that bad if you ask me. They signed Quinn Cook, Green earlier today, Javele and KCP are back as well. (edit: and Rondo)

By the way, after PG13 being traded to the Clippers, rumors are (and common sense) Thunder will try to move Westbrook too and get into full rebuild mode...what a crazy day!

Kawhi does not want to build a super team, that's why he the choose clippers over the Lakers, and that made the west very exciting to watch.
In the east, not much of an excitement since Durant is not gonna play in the next season and Irving is not a type of player can could be considered a elite superstar who can carry a team to win, judging by the way he played with the Celtics being him as the main man.

Does not want to build a super team yet he convinced Paul George to be with him in the Clippers? I don't want to discredit what you said but him being with Paul George, Patrick Beverly, Lou Williams, and Jaymychal Green, and Montrezl Harrell already sounds like a better team compared to what he had with the Raptors. If that team doesn't sound too attractive to you then just wait for another season or even as early as the next trade deadline for you to see the Clippers try to recruit another star.

So, according to the news Zion Williamson suffered a minor knee injury during his debut on NBA summer league. Thoughts about this? I just saw it on Bleacher report and many people are commenting "Another Greg Oden player." Like, who are they to judge a kid that is a great prospect in playing basketball?

The curse of the 1st draft pick. I already said it here. I'd pick RJ Barrett than him.
It is his physical body which will be the problem and we already saw it at college basketball where he broke his shoe. That is not quality issue but more of his body weight.

And there it is!

Kahwi Leonard will be playin in LA.............Clippers Grin

Sorry to all Laker hopefuls Cry

He will be playing along side Paul George who has also been traded there.

I really hoped there is a betting line for this.
I could've doubled my money by now for a right guess.
Kawhi is not a Lebron fan, he will not go there.
Yes, he want to be near home and give it some good records or maybe a championship but it will not be Lakers.
Thank God he did join the Clippers or there will no sense watching NBA with him at Lakers.

I love this news! I never thought this was gonna happen. My respect for the guy just went. Kahwi, PG, Lou, and Beverly is a great combination. A lot of strong contenders in the West now. Clippers, Lakers, Warriors, and I also like the chances of the Nuggets and the Mavs.

Just wanna leave it here, the Toronto Raptors declined the trade that would get them a Russell Westbrook or PG in exchange with Pascal Siakam and future picks. That news was from Woj.

I found this post funny, it says "Yo Kawhi, there's no earthquake here in Toronto" Grin

Just so you know, there was an earthquake during the Knicks vs Pelican game.

Nets VS Clippers on Final lol
Kawhi ruined King James plan by joining to the clippers team. Now, I know why Kawhi takes to a long time to decide this move, I think Kawhi and PG13 discussed together with their move to the clippers lol

Don't have that conclusion yet, there's more to come. I think this is also one of the most awaited moment on NBA, the roster changes. With $142M contract for four years, well this could be a good try for Clippers with the span of time but who knows if there will be some interesting and unpredicted moments. It's not just Nets and Clippers will be the interesting team, we'll see on how the super teams before react with the season. GSW won't be the same before.

I'm just predicted lol. did you mean GSW not stronger as before? I see lol. they make a deal with DA Russel that has the same position as Klay Thompson Grin

Quote from: stadus on July 06, 2019, 08:12:48 AM

That's right, Clippers are healthy while Nets are not, Durant will not play next season, so I don't think we can guarantee they will win, and also, take into consideration that Durant might be different by the moment he comes back since it's a long lay off and coming from a major injury that will affect one's confidence.

oh my bad, I forget that Durant will not be playing in the next season. he will play only in this season, right? or not play for two seasons?
