@Swimi_P@JoeBuddenPod he definitely heard 20 seconds and skipped to the next song lol . No way he saying that if he heard the ending . smh Joe “it’s about the difference you make”
@bookofthefates The point was more about the time frame those guys spent at their initial teams without a chip win b4 changes were made , similar to Luka .
Teams have taken chances b4 is the point . Luka was not exempt & people can’t take it . I get it but it’s not just one way to see it .
@bookofthefates Bron played 7 seasons in Clvlnd / Dame played 10 in Portland / KD , 9 seasons in OKC / Melo , 7 seasons in Denver , Luka 7 in DAL , now Trae 7yrs in atl . . there is a consistency to this . . they all saw a conference finals b4 switching teams around the same time in career
@bookofthefates A.D. has been haunted by injury for yrs but when healthy he helps LA get a chip , not an appearance Ky is also a champ.
Call it cliche but we haven’t seen them .
You don’t beat Boston with the 23/24 Luka team so what free agent do you pickup esp with the Luka contract ?
@bookofthefates Nah im good , but i think you might be confused as to how i can acknowledge the pros and the cons in your guy . The initial question was about the trade being a mistake . You haven’t addressed that yet my friend .
@Jtwag55@bookofthefates@NickVanExit Yea he was hurt , still avgd 29 for the series . Ky had 35 in Game 3 but for a series yea he was lack luster . As a team they got nothing going . My point in my response to that other guy was we can come up with multiple reasons why they loss but simply put the better TEAM won .
@NTzourtzouklis@NickVanExit Was the chip for yr 8 ? agreed the trade was crazy initially but then I think of a few other times the main guy of a TEAM was on “schedule” and moved by choice or by force . Ironically around the same time . Dame , KD , Bron , all had a conference finals appearances by yr 8-10
@bookofthefates@Jtwag55@NickVanExit lol so you like who’s at the 5 for LA now ? Here’s some context , no matter where Luka plays we don’t count on him to guard , you build a TEAM for that right ? When the MAVS got cooked in the finals by Boston did you chalk it up to them just being better or ?
@BigX84@NickVanExit Is the goal to win a chip or not ? You know making it there doesn’t guarantee you a ring . I didn’t say Dallas had average success I said they averaged conference success , the ceiling was the best team on the west in his time . Was the ring coming this year if he stayed ?
