Cousins. Sure.
Iggy. Hell no.
Livingston. Hell no
Cook. No
Looney. No

Bogut, Cousins, Green, Durant, and Curry are all loathsome to me.

Personally, I think Curry is overly protected by NBA media as some good guy, and I don't think that's close to the truth. His on court behavior towards referees is on par with Green. He just gets a pass. Durant is a fucking baby who can't handle any criticism whatsoever. Green is a douchebag, and Bogut is some weird Aussie-libertarian conspiracy theorist. Cousins is easily the best of that group for me.

It's the 1980's Denver Nuggets with modern rules. I don't hate the player, it's the game, the rules, the way the league has evolved that makes the Warriors so unimpressive to me. At least over-hyped, and I loved the 1980's Denver Nuggets style too.

Bucks choked. Giannis has gone MIA as Kawhi shows what it takes to win in the postseason. Raptors won with Gasol being a waste of space too.

The first game NBA game I attended live was is Chicago in 1977 vs. Portland. My dad had season tickets for Jordan's rookie year. I am a hardcore Bulls fan, and I have lived in the Bay Area for a couple decades.

Imagine being surrounded by Warriors fans when your team is led by GarPax.

I actually don't mind Curry. He does have some on the court antics that he gets away with, but I look at it as him just genuinely being happy. KD and Draymond are the ones I can't stand on the Warriors. KD for his off court antics like not being able to take criticism and fake twitter accounts. Draymond just for being Draymond. He's as annoying as Joachim Noah was to Bulls opponents.

I like how the Warriors play, it's fun. I'm just sick of them winning. For me it stems from what KD did. They didn't need him to win honestly. They were going to win at least 1 more without him.

I think Milwaukee would have been a tougher opponent for the Warriors, so I was kind of hoping they'd win. I think GS could beat TOR in 5.

Could the bulls have done this if they landed Leonard?

Depending on who we would have given up to get him, I think the furthest we would have gotten would have been the 2nd round.

Isn't Draymond enough?
