Not gonna lie..Javale McGee in golden state was phenomenal. Dude was at his best with that team. Honestly a bit upset they let him go because he was integral to their interior defense. They could’ve easily kept him and sign boogie cousins. They had the money.
the GSW system makes everyone play better lol, it extends role players careers and gets them big contracts for other teams , gp2 and dante divenczo fuckin balling right now😂
Man these were the days I don’t think I ever enjoyed basketball as much as I did during the warriors dynasty with and without KD just so fun to watch those guys work, I wish KD never left just to see how many titles they could really win… I say at least 2 more titles maybe 3
@@caairon hell yeah they did lol so happy for Steph plus it put the stupid “can’t win without kd” narratives to bed I was just saying they were so dominant when they had him it was crazy to watch
Durant, Westbrook, Ibaka, George. Melo was out the following the NBA next year, and Harden only showed as a starter which he wasn't in OKC. (He would've been there Ginobili). 3 conference Finals and an NBA Finals not to bad for Durant and Wesbrook. We'll have to see how George and Westbrook turn out, only been 2 years and KD & Russ struggled 1st 3 years so
West Westbrick was running the team. He is an scoring machine with some decent passing but not much else. Now he is not running the team, he can focus on scoring and let somebody better at running the team do it.
I watched this game when I was 16 years old on my phone while eating with my mom at ihop. I just couldn’t miss their reunion, the drama!! Core memory tbh
summary of his career honestly, will always fill up stats and impress fans and the media but will find ways to lose due to low IQ and reckless play which is evident in his turnovers
And to think that GOLDEN STATE is still planning to retire #35, even though KD only spend three years in the Bay, compared to EIGHT in OKC. Thunder fans are bitter
@@chronos8436 ,,,so what, he got the right to join any nba team, bsides when the team was dismantle ibaka, harden, KD left also, only adams was valuable there but westbrick is just a loser....
it´s so sad see that kind of bully on a guy who plays so good for that franchise...and judging him without any right!! he is free to join any nba team anytime......
@@II-ev6vy if he's a snake for looking out for himself then. Lebron, PG, Carmelo Anthony, Anthony Davis, Irving etc. even Giannis they're all snakes too. They changed teams. They went to teams which they thought could win them championship, hell even Westbrook left and joined the Rockets. I get it, he went to the team he lost to. Because he realized the team he lost to was good. The game now is not about loyalty anymore. If you ask me they're all snakes.
@@moses9426 There's something called Wanting to be Traded and the Team trading you and you have no choice. Westbrook had no choice. It was a trade made by his team. Giannis is a Buck ever since he started his career. What are you on?
@@chronos8436 Westbrook literally demanded for a trade. Giannis openly said he will join another team if the Bucks don't win a chip this season. What are you on?
@@lpy1102 Funny how these people keep bringing up that KD joined 73-9 to win but also these people say that GSW would lose to Cavs if without KD? Which is which? Lmao
The point is the fact showed that he wasn't that good, he got to beat the 73-9 in 2016 but not choking with playing nonsense iso to have terrible shooting and many TO in game 6 when even Westbrook was playing team ball with FG:7/15 with 0 TO and 8assist in the first 3quarter in that game. Had he made at least one more final apperance since 2012? The answer is no. Otherwise, GSW needs KD to beat Bron just proved that how great LeBron is, and caused the 73-9 Warriors got to recruit KD to beat him. 3-6 wasn't LeBron's fault, just his opponents were too strong (2014,2017,2018) ((except 2011, i admit he definetly choked that year)) And I'm a Boston fan, I have no reason to defend for LeBron but just telling you the fact. KD isn't the King in 2010s certainly.
@@lpy1102 OKC is playing in the West not in the East. We all know if Bron played in the West he won't make 8 straight finals appearance. Cavs last finals might not even make the 2nd round in West last season.
@@lpy1102 Stop with the "I'm a fan of "other team" just to make your statement more reliable. By the way, I'm a Spurs fan so I have no reason to defend KD.
There is no team in NBA history that dominated opponents in the Regular Season like the Warriors did during their years with the Splash bros., Draymond Green, Steve Kerr & later on KD!RESPECT!!
It's not KD's fault that OKC favors Westbrick over him. Nobody can win with Westbrick. I wouldn't want to play with a guy who just go for triple double on 20% shooting and 10 turnovers. KD and Ibaka won championships. Oladipo and Harden become not just all stars but super stars. The fans should blame the management for not trading away Westbrick instead
Seems like slamdunk cartoons.. SENDO vs Rukawa ,, westbrook vs Durant said look the score board 😂😁 but the end of the game Gsw win😂 and the OKC crowd is crying 😂😂
This man gave his all to that franchise n they booed him so what he left I get he left for the rival but shyt look at wtf he gave y’all for all them years lol that’s why he cooked they ass every single game 😂😂😂😂😂
So you mean KD? He'll never be the best player in the world after he joined the Warriors. He's a very elite player but LeBron, Westbrook or Harden are much better then him because he joined the 73-9 Warriors.
@@user-pj9qo9nf8z Half of the 73-9 guys weren't playing anymore after KD signed. 73-9 team relies on bench which why they have a tagline "strength in numbers". You can't call them 73-9 team without those guys. You act like GSW didn't lose any player on their team after signing KD. Bogut, Barbosa, Speights, Ezeli, Barnes, and Rush. Those guys were integral part of their success. Westbrook has 2 all stars on his team with a top 5 bigman. Yet he can't even past Jazz with the rookie as their player lol Put KD there together with Melo, PG, and Adams they might even give Houston and GSW trouble.
The key players are not lost. Curry, Thompson, Green, Iggy, Livingston didn't leave. Don't tell me someone like Ian Clark or Speights contributed a lot.
This says it all!!! Durantula could never win here with Westbrook he is really low on basketball iq. 11 turnovers... I'm coming for you!! Durant, so what?? Look at the scoreboard!!
Westbrook has been climbing his mountain since day one, Durant fails just as much as westbrook to let a 3-1 lead go against the team he joined, westbrook wills every win for okc, durant joins a team who already was winning championships and had way more wins before his scrawny ass started shooting every damn forced shot
But to leave the franchise that drafted you, abandon your teammates and fans to the most loaded team in the league that you had just lost to in the playoffs after being up 3-1 against them is a sellout move. Can you really blame OKC fans for being upset bruh, Durant Legit stabbed that entire city in the back.
We know that durant is the most better than westbrook.. U should have to know why durant left OKC Thunder.. But the reason is same fault of westbrook and coach..
To boo someone who brought their city so much success, revenue from tickets and advert., and did so much for the community like when they had tornadoes etc is so sad.
I catch myself saying "but Durant has no rings & no way he wins in Phoenix with the roster constructed the way it is, which is gonna keep him in the 12-14 range all time" - which is obv incorrect, because he won 2 in Golden State. I guess those rings don't automatically register bc when I think of GS title teams, I think of the other 3 HOF'ers (an MVP, a top 3 shooter of all time, & possibly the most versatile defender/underrated playmaker of all time), a top 5 coach of all time, & role players that included a Finals MVP/multi-time all star. If Boogie was able to stay healthy, they probably become so dominant that the ego's never clash, Durant stays, which could have ruined the NBA.
why put yourself out on a limb like that when we tittle contenders, i don't get why these warrior fans humiliate themselves by making fun of westbrook all the time
this move really bothered me man. Lmao. Still can’t believe it happened. This dude really lost to the warriors in the playoffs then joined them ? What the hell man. I’ll never respect KD. But who cares right I’m just a random person 😂
