Look at Love scoring numbers before the trade...Nigga.. ain't nobody ever triple team Westbrook.
Love is garbage. DO NOT enter him into this discussion.
Superteams usually underperform - will Durant's Warriors be different?

Love was garbage before the trade. Statpadding on a bottom feeder. Durant is leading the league in scoring since he's been drafted. Stop. Lmao
Durrant still going to get 20+ and his % will go up. They can't leave anybody open and there is only so much rotation on D you can do. Going to have to grind these ninjas to dust to try and beat them.
Lol at wade,Kobe, Durant and curry being same type of shooters.
Yep. Gonna be about dominating them in the paint
I think bring rush and Barbosa back and allow looney to play and another big they will be fine... i feel like a team needs 3 bigs
They never got dominated in the paint when their small ball lineup was healthy..and now that i think about it spurs are in trouble..pau nor LA can guard Green or durant..
This is Miami Heat 2.0
Everyone hates the move....and wish nothing but the worse for GS. They'll have growing pains....but eventually i think they'll win a title. I wonder if Durant will bounce after year two if he wins.
BTW.....I don't recall a lot of uproar when Shaq, Malone, Payton and Kobe were all of the same team. But I think that was because the league had other talented teams and plus Malone and Payton were past their prime. They eventually had Payton coming off the bench...lol
Btw.....someone in GS will have to fallback in order to let Durant be Durant. Green, Klay, Steph....whose it gonna be? or will Durant be reduced to a decoy?

Soo the question remains why didn't other teams do this if Barnes was so bad???
But then again, why argue???
Lets move on....
Now that the Warriors are the 2017 NBA champs what do they do now to make sure LeBron doesn't beat them??
I say they should sign Westbrook and Griffin, sign back Curry and see if they can also grab Jeff Teague, just so the bench could be better....

Theres never an uproar when the Lakers or Celtics (traditional teams 35 rings combined with huge frontrunning fanbases) create stacked teams. That is normal. Its only abnormal when non traditionals (Heat, Warriors) do it.
Comming from a guys who hailed the Warriors champs last November, and swore up and down your cheat code (is it still P.C. to call him that?) could one day score a hundred, this is a complement...you sound absolutely crazy....
Almost like Hitler calling you a guy he doesn't like...
Nah this will never happen, because not only are they going to get Durant, the NBA is going to pass a new clause that allows them to take extra shots so that everyone can fill their quota..This is Miami Heat 2.0

Whats ironic is the title of the thread is entitle why superteams usually under perform, and all I have done was explain why they do, yet the op is arguing with me not this time..
The game is simple and fundamentally it remains the same.. There is reason why most great teams win with a mixture of a few superstars and a bunch of roll players to help complement them, and why superstar teams including many Olympic teams often seem underwhelming...
What made the original dream team so amazing is that even the superstars where more than shooters who was able to do so much off of the ball and had no problem trading in stats for the benefit of the team..
Like wise this Warrior team is going to have to take the same approach, but until these players show me they can do it, I am not going to just assume they can, because its not as easy to do as people assume...

Let them play.
All this silly ass back and forth
Typing. Niggas ain't even practiced
Yet! Dumb ass thread.

I never said any player could score 100pts in a game, dude stop it; and GS was 4mins away from repeating; I dont think my prediction was that far off; but if you think KD is only going to score 17pts a game you are a fucking imbecile...
nobody has to do anything. if anything it makes it even better. green can do everything he still did and even more because he will not have to pick up the scoring load. he is a we need these points so im scoring, scorer. he is elated to put up 4 shots grab 10 boards play good defense and toss out 7 assists which will probably jump up to about 9 or 10 POSSIBLY considering he'll be passing it to kevin durant and not harrison barnes.someone in GS will have to fallback in order to let Durant be Durant. Green, Klay, Steph....whose it gonna be? or will Durant be reduced to a decoy?
durant can get up 16 shots a night and he averaged 19 last season with absolutely NO ball movement.
16 shots a night is plenty for durant and nobody on the warriors...steph or klay have to sacrifice any of their shots to do it.
durant will take all of barnes shots and all of the ones bogut didn't take because he couldn't get it done offensively later in his career
one of the realest things you have ever said...
we're not supposed to do anything but let these teams keep beating us.
i had no problem with the bron in miami.
i had no problem with him with kyrie and acquiring love OTHER than I thought wiggins would be a player and they'd need him but the idea of him getting love didn't bother me from a team stacking standpoint.
people are saying if he went to the spurs it'd be ok. like they don't have aldridge and leonard its not team stacking then.
if he goes to the clippers with cp3 deandre jordan and blake griffin somehow that's not team staking either....
just team stacking when he goes to the warriors.
the only way he could have not team stacked is going to the fucking sixers or something and why would he do that?
Landry Fields is back in the game wow; dude has been missing for like 3 years now...
But then again, why argue???
Lets move on....

you be so shook daddy lol
hilarious ass nigga.
every move ain't about lebron its about making the team better. stop being so self absorbed.
did lebron make sure he got love so that he could beat some team from the west or was he just trying to secure a good team?
I'm not into that fan bullshit so I don't allow myself to get emotionally charged in teams win losses....
Yeah he shook bad.
Point guard issue. Being dominate in the paint also means being able to break down the defense off the dribble and getting to the basket. Leonard is good but not dependent on that type of style. Parker has lost is step. They don't have anyone who can dominate in the paint that type of way.
Kyrie's ability to get to the basket and cause fouls was a huge part of the Cavs success. Parker use to do that. Manu too. It's going to be the same story with the Spurs this season. All they needed to do was get a point guard.
24 hours of straight posting disagrees with you fam.
Damn yall got Road Rage shook. Dude really trying to convince himself that the Cavs will beat this version of the Warriors
they can. but not for any of the reasons he lays out. he has been here for 5 pages now trying to poke holes in the team based on
chemistry which has been debunked
style of play which has been debunked
trapping durant and somehow not leaving klay and curry open
barnes is a better fit because he can't do anything better than kevin durant on either side of the ball
they have the green light to shoot so durant won't ever get a shot
hero ball
etc
etc
same guy that said the other day lebron left the cavs to go to a team that had never made the playoffs before... lol
True but now i think the spurs are in an even worse position against GS than before..but i guess one can say every team is....
They barely beat GS this year..RR is crazyDamn yall got Road Rage shook. Dude really trying to convince himself that the Cavs will beat this version of the Warriors
I would have argued just as hard if you were to challenge my logic on Durant and Wade not being a good fit on the Cavs, but funny nobody had shit to say about that...
Back with your slandering and emoji's, glad to know your helmet works at least...They barely beat GS this year..RR is crazy
