Curry is better than LeBron ever was. I didn't use a question mark because its not a question.
Curry has been having some lebron-esque 4th quarter stat lines lately, though .
They have different skills and I believe lebron is more consistent. Curry will not be effective when guarded by double team and that would make him hard to shoot, all he knows is just to shoot 3 points but lebron is an all around player I guess.

Curry's clutch genes are too strong. Lebeta doesn't have any and needs D-Wade to close out games for him. And of course current Curry is better than any Bran. Curry makes the game so damn easy for his teammates.

Injuries have really lessen D Rose confidence to play in the court, he is a great player with a heart and he wants to win in every game. So even if Derrick Rose has suffered so many injuries it is still fun to watch this guy, I just hope that he will have a good teamwork with veteran melo.

Even after the injury, he still can go hard to the basket. He just need to improve more his shooting so that theres a open lane for Melo to attack to the basket .
it took him 3 years to win MVP, why can't he be an all star in his 3rd season post ACL?

All Star is best case, MVP days are gone, but this is a guy that rose from the gutter to the top and rose again. It'd be silly for us to just count him out. Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't, but we know Derrick will try.

Absolutely durant should remember now that he is no more a leader in golden states he must bare with them but after all i still believe durant will play a really big role in gsw

Of course he must the one to step and he's clutch plays I think will be out of his line now since Kerr will surely give most of the clutch plays to the splash brothers.

I'd like to see now how GSW will play this season. Durant and the rest of GSW has one thing in common, they all know the feeling of becoming a loser even with the advantage of 3-1 lol. Cheesy
hahaha and that would be a big reason for chasing the title this year, disappointing the fans and make a huge choke the team have big expectation to meet I probably say that aiming more winnings this year aside from getting the crown is one of their goal.

They should force for a championship since lots of criticism will be throw to them once they failed to grab the title.

Dwayne Wade is now on Chicago Bulls but Knicks are putting some nice offer to get Wade.

Hmm if they really want to push for Wade, Knicks must offer a good reward for the Bulls and not on Wade itself since if Bulls will likely get some multiple promising players, I doubt they will reject it.

and not be featured each year to compete for championship
I hope to join him dwayne wade chicago bulls up again and competitif again

Actually if Derrick Rose don't suffered some major injuries, we can see another chapter of Chicago Bulls since he lead that team.

Btw, DWade already signed 2 years contract to the Chicago Bulls worth of $47 million. Chicago's backcourt now are Rondo, Wade  and Butler. This is exciting lineup for them.

Yes but there is so called a counter offer wherein both parties will agree for an agreement.

Yes, KD isn't actually a choker, but he is not in the level of Lebron James or even Chris Paul when it comes to leadership. He will give you points and all the stats but there is something lacking in him. Maybe because he is so kind and doesn't want to overstep on his teammates.

Durant is a great leader, he lead OKC Thunder until last season. Westbrook played exceptionally great and take the leading role from Durant. In Golden State things will be different. They have a lot of super-star players. It'll be hard to share ball and take responsibility. There will be too many choices.
Absolutely durant should remember now that he is no more a leader in golden states he must bare with them but after all i still believe durant will play a really big role in gsw

Looking forward on Golden State Warriors with Kevin Durant(Kevin the Choker,hahaha), in my opinion the team is different now than the past year. Road to victory still in the nutshell, the warriors need to work through the same thing the other teams had always to do to get the things rolling.
 
Stop calling Durant as the choker because he is a great player, we need to respect him as he was able to make his team popular with his effort in the court. Durant is a hard working player and he deserved to be recognize as one of the best player in the world.
Yeah! We need to respect him and this time he has to prove that he is a great player and he can win championship. Being in a legitimate team will make him feel the pressure as he partners with the MVP and I think so far in NBA history this is the cheapest move, but anyway we need to respect.

with lennard too they will build another real big three big in height numbers and skills so better check the spurs, understand that from the way coach pop did he is making the team to be much better from time to time, before i forget parker still in play because of fiba qualifiers so by then he will be also in good form so we are not only looking for the advantage but for the possible superpowers too.
Leonard is an outstanding player who are good both in defense and offense, the addition of gasol this season is what really makes them a very strong team, I think they can beat the warriors with the current line up. Duncan is out and the younger one is in, witness how gasol will make it to the finals guys.

Did Varejao and David West take the two biggest L's last season?

West takes a massive paycut to be on a 67 win team only to get outshined by a 73 win team and bounced out in the second round
Varejao gets traded, signs with the warriors to coast his way to a championship, only to fail miserably and remind everyone how truly trash he is.
Not really. West was a free agent who is in a few years away from retirement and he has been trying to chase a championship a few years from now. He simply chose the best option for him and that happened to be the Spurs. They still have a chance next season. For Varejao, it was not his decision to go to the Warriors. He is even eligible to receive the championship of the Cavs but he declined to. He can prove his worth this year with a whole season with the much improved Warriors.
i agree with west the man is only chasing for the crown so what he thinks is the best would be joined one of the best team as well just not a good start for them but i think with coach pop many things will happen to spurs line up they will be more aggressive and with pau,al,lennard and the rest of the team they can match up to whoever teams that they will compete.
All I can say is that the spurs are more dangerous this year compared to the last season, having pau and lamarcus aldridge playing together the defended will be having a hard time to guard them, in addition these 2 are a good shooters, defender, and rebounder as well.

bogut is a talented center even lebron got interrupted when he is in the paint i think losing him will be another thing that gsw need to consider durant is a big success for the offensive side but they also needed to think about how to defend lebron and irving as lebron already succeed to have crown and bring cavs to their goal then adding bird man it will be easy for kevin love now to penetrate more because there is a legit center who will help thompson look at them, irving, lebron at front to run while bird man thompson and love to dominate the paint.

Durant is a choker. We see that multiple times, NBA finals and their playoffs run against GSW. They just add another player that knows the feeling of being lead by 3-1 then still lose. ROFL.

Sorry to say for die hard GSWS fans here that you can't easily say that next season is yours. And you know what is the pressured team now? That is GSW. If they can't win the title next season then shame to this superteam. If they did then I will accept all trahstalks here. Smiley

I don't think Durant is a choker but he definitely doesn't have the personality that's needed to lead a team, he is no leader, that's for sure. Now it's clear as water, he opted to join a complete established franchise with star players (the current MVP for god's sake!). The way I see it, if healthy, this GSW will be almost impossible to beat, but if Durant or Curry gets injured the team just doesn't have the same depth as last year and the whole thing could turn into a complete fiasco...
Yes, KD isn't actually a choker, but he is not in the level of Lebron James or even Chris Paul when it comes to leadership. He will give you points and all the stats but there is something lacking in him. Maybe because he is so kind and doesn't want to overstep on his teammates.
KD is great and whoever said he is a choker is not really watching him played. He almost hits the winning last seconds shot of his team and he usually the one who lead his team when his team were down and make a rally to win.

I think what he meant was that he choked on important games, like the finals this year (and NBA finals back then against Miami). He certainly doesn't have a problem scoring in 4th quarters and won plenty of games like this but when OKC most needed him he seemed to fail. The 1-3 comeback is too fresh so I kinda agree with what he's saying.

Anyway, the bottomline that Durant won't be the leader on this GSW and I think that's why he left OKC, they wanted him to be the leader but he doesn't want that pressure. Westbrook with all its shortcomings was the one doing the "leading"...remember when Durant was injury and he almost single handedly classified OKC to the playoffs averaging a triple double down the stretch?
Maybe but everyone chokes even Lebron James choked so have when he was in cavaliers as his first team, the problem is that he has no good teammate that can back him up when tough times and I think westbrook is not a good fit for him and he realize it that is why he leave the OKC for the Warriors.
It would be interesting to find out who the top scorer for GSW would turn out to be. Will the top three scorers in Durant, Curry and Thompson average atleast 20 points each per game? When Miami formed their Big 3 a few years ago, we saw a big dip in Bosh's scoring and a bit from D.Wade too.

I don't know if Curry will score more points in the next season since it's quite disappointing seeing him underperformed in the playoffs. It might be possible that the trio will score at least 20 points per game, but I hope Curry will bring his momentum back to pull GSW for another title.
The scoring will be shared among the three because they are the threats in the offense. Having said that, I think it is going to be harden who will win and MVP and scoring champ this season.

Well, let's see about it if Harden might surprise us with his performance next season.

Well harden would surely show all he have next season but i dont see any exciting games when watching him maybe im not  his fan guy but instead i really want to see what performance could durant give to gsw team is he could be dominant on scoring like we used to see him on OKC? or he would join the run and gun game that willing to pass the ball, well thats exciting thoughs really.
