You dont need to lose a lot of players to affect your team negatively; this aint football; Denver lost 2 players and now no longer championship; Boston about to trade players and so will others; these teams lose one or 2 players and it changes the whole dynamic of the team...

Boston kept their core, what fucked up that team is when tatum went down because who knows what would've happened hat tatum stayed healthy.

GSW haven't been right since their last championship and I belive the window is close for them because they just aren't that team anymore who have enough talent to compete no matter what plder player they bring on their team.

Like I've said they will lose some players which that's been spoken about but to say they will lose a lot of players is what I disagree with .

Also, OKC will be fine regardless because they draft well.

Also, some of those players can be replaced.

Minny traded their 2nd best player because they didnt want to pay him; and now Naz and Randle are free agents; Minny gonna be completely different next year...

No, what fucked up the team is the new CBA; Boston was put together before the new CBA took full effect and they wasnt paying the penalties until now! But look they still have a championship roster and yet all the rumors coming out of Boston is they are going to be actively trading players?? Why??? Im not sure why you are bringing GS up in regards to this conversation...

Minny isn't gonna be no different next year because they don't have a franchise player who can get the job done.

Edwards doesn't seem to want to be that guy to want to be the captain on the team.

I'm bringing up GSW because they aren't no different having a similar situariuon as well. They aren't gonna be the same team next year either and they will be trading players like boston.

Like I've said, had boston didn't lose in the playoffs or made it to the conference finals or finals for the second time, I don't think we would be hearing rumors about boston wanting to trade their players but it changed everything when tatum got hurt.

You talking about how far they go into the playoffs; who knows; im talking about the players on the team; they probably will let Randle walk and who knows if they resign Naz; so that means they got nothing for KAT; because of why???

Im not understanding what you are trying to say; ok they gonna be different; the whole point of the conversation is the ability and the likelyhood and the desire of these teams wanting to pay and or keep the players; and as we have seen most if not all these teams dont wanna pay; so to think that OKC is gonna some how pay a 400-500 million payroll its ludicrous...

People claiming they not gonna watch the new first ever chip for either team.. 2 fast paced offense, the MVP, team with the best record vs 1 of the biggest underdog.. this actually seems like a reason why you would watch the series.

People complain when Boston,the Lakers and Warriors are in the Finals then turn around and say the Finals will be boring since neither teams are in the Finals...

Who even mentioned about playoffs? We don't even know if they will be any good in the regular season.

Them resigning some players isn't gonna solve the elephant in the room.

You don't know what OKC will pay or what they're gonna do nor do I.

We can debate about this shit all night, it's not gonna change nothing of what we think OKC will or won't do.

True, and if they dont sign those players and or get adequate replacements; they are going to be worse than before; all because of not wanting to pay the luxury tax...

Yes will do; they have a track record of not wanting to pay; thats in their policy; the whole reason why they have Shai is because they didnt want to pay PG!!! if Boston or NY or CHi or LAC dont want to pay the luxury tax; and those teams generate a lot more revenue than OKC; you think OKC gonna what to pay the tax :giggle: come on bro...
