I went too far. He was better pre-GS than I gave him credit for. Probably because I have little respect for KD. The only way he was ever going to win a title was to join a title train and then he had the audacity to disrespect the guys whose coattails he jumped on to win his 2 titles.Me too... I remember a friend of mine was making teams for church ball and he stacked our team... when I objected he was like “you wanna play with those guys?” I said yeah and ended up busting their asses and squeaking out a win... was fun as hell. We’d have blown them out by 30.
But when it’s life and you have a teammate locked in and want to leave it’s different. He would have caught **** for going to Boston or basically wherever he went so he joined the Warriors.
I just like KD. He’s a great player and competitor. I think he’s just a real dude too. He has thin skin and rabbit ears but I think it makes him human imo.
I hated what he did for the competitiveness of the league but if you step in his shoes it makes sense. Time will gloss over him switching teams... I think he’ll be remembered more favorably than if he never won a title. Just think the first post really went too far in assessing his pre-GS career.
That would be like Rondo dissing LeBron this year despite joining the Lakers last year to win a title. Don't bite the hand that fed you. Show respect. I just don't see a lot of that from KD.
