It’s simple math. The Warriors win a record 73 games in 2015-16. Now they are on pace to go 0-82 in 2016-17. What changed between the two seasons? Oh, that’s right, they signed Kevin Durant! When you look at it that way, it’s hard not to think that Durant is the sole cause of this unprecedented downfall.

The dark, Bayesian part of my brain thinks the probability of the Warriors blowing another 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals is quite low.

They actually get it right most of the time. By far. People on here are being ignorant.

Okay, good luck with that when we’re reviewing holding on every single play.

If these officials and leagues can afford to get things right, the NFL can afford to make their officials full time. Perhaps that would lead to stronger officiating and less mistakes.

But it’s demonstrably not risky- he’s still employed. If anything, it’s actually been a benefit to Kaep. He gets favorable coverage from most media outlets and now ESPN and others are running stories and video every time a player, team, equipment manager, valet, etc. does anything “in solidarity” with Kaepernick. It’s

Linking arms is meaningless but kneeling is deeply meaningful?

This interview was great. Thew biggest problem i’ve noticed is that the actually issues that Kaepernick is trying to bring to the fore front are largely being ignored. The only thing being discussed is him not standing for the anthem.

Bruh:

The cover-up is always worse than the crime. . . If he’d simply owned up to it, he’d have gotten a fine and a stern letter of warning. But he wanted to play the choir-boy and say “What, me? I’d never do anything like that. . .” and this is what he gets.

No one knows what the season will bring. Maybe they’ll drop 150 points per game and sweep their way through the playoffs, and maybe Steph’s ankles and Durant’s foot all give out at the same time and they lose in the first round.

Believe it or not, but the opposite is actually true. Leagues actual do better nationally with a dominant force. It might be a bit counter-intuitive, but think about the history of the pros. Just recently, the Bulls dynasty of the mid 90's was loved by all. The Yankees dynasty at the turn of the century galvanized

If you don’t like that this CAN happen, be mad at OCK for not doing enough to keep him, or mad at the NBA for how they structure player moves and salary cap. The hate directed at Durant, who is just trying to position himself for the best career possible is something you just can’t fault him for.

I’m sorry, enough help for what? To come close? Yes. Not to win it all.

Bogut only played 20 minutes per night and the Warriors best lineup was without him. Green and Durant can both play small ball center with a little Varejao and Ezeli thrown in.

It’s only worse if Durant goes on stage with Drake and Jerry West and Ayesha Curry and starts “Not one, not two, not three...”. Durant didn’t host a one-hour special with kids as props, so he’s automatically two moves ahead.

The best strategy is:

The problem is that recent title teams all kinda dispute Hinkie’s strategy:

I am puzzled why Lacob is on this list. Sure, he’s a douche and does unspeakable things with the Larry O trophy, but at least you can’t really argue with the way he’s run his team - turning them from a perennial laughingstock to a championship team that looks like it won’t be dropping off any time soon.

magary as good as your writing is i think you need to calm down. your becoming a caricature of yourself. your shtick has always been to call people the fuck out and take no prisoners or whatever, but now the demand for more copy (is that it?) seems to be pushing you in the direction of just screaming as loud as you
