Draymond called KD from the parking lot right after they lost to the Cavs in the finals after giving up a 3-1 lead. Nobody considers him a beta. He's the leader/heart and soul of the GSW team. I'd guess most of the heavyweight names talk to one another about these things. You are correct that nobody cares that GS recruited KD. I’ve never understood that. What is wrong is the totality of the blame landed on KD when he was the recruited player and only 1/2 of the two sides. With that said, now that KD has won two straight championships, people are lightening up on the hate on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubearcat 2,132 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 So, Rondo for Randle. I suppose the Lakers are in now or never mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cannot do anything without Kawhi or a second star. Until now they just want to be interesting, tread water and maybe be a low playoff seed. Next summer is when they will try to really get a second star. All of these signings are 1 year deals. Randle wanted to get close to a max offer and that def is not in the Lakers long term plans for a player of his caliber.

If Lebron can stay healthy, his 3rd or 4th year could potentially/probably be a finals run. It’d be awesome/nostalgic to see the Celtics get about 19th or 20th banner on them.

aubearcat 2,132 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 @GwillMac6, thoughts on where Randle lands? He may not be an all star but he’s definitely an above average player. Boston can’t afford him but my second tier team, San Antonio should probably make a run at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a clue since very few teams do not have the cap space! there is not a big market for him. He may have to take a 1 year deal and wait till FA next season when a lot more teams will have money. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as good of a team but still pretty stout if Boogie stays. Edited July 2, 2018 by aujeff11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwillMac6 20,607 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 They already have a really good team with Jrue, Mirotic who WAS A BEAST in the playoffs, randle and AD. Boogie would be the cherry on top. Not a lot of teams with cap space left. Nola can get him for cheap to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting enough, both Davis and the Pels played their best basketball without Boogie. Rondo was a beast last year in the playoffs as well.

PLAYOFF RONDO was revived the last 2 years with the bulls before he got hurt and the Pels for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
