I'm as big a GS hater as there is, and as big a LeBron homer as there is - if I can root for GS everybody can. because you're right, GS built the right way (except Durant), while LAL would have bought their way to it. that would bring folks to the GS side.

one of the reasons LeBron, Kawhi and PG in LAL is exciting is that i could root

I would die. The Lakers getting a super team is my worst nightmare.

Yes, that's another bonus.

They’ve had them before, and it did suck.

Exactly. The clashes between LA and GS would be amazing. Plus, LBJ going against

The irony is that most people would root for the Lakers in this scenario

Too many people hate KD and the warriors are forcing other franchises to build

Michigan

6/20/18 9:46am

I would hope so, but I'm not so sure. People like to see the champ lose.

CaliWG

6/20/18 9:46am

Nah, the Lakers are still part of the Axis of Sports Evil

RockyBalboa

Nope, the Patriots have clearly replaced the Cowboys. This happened long ago.

chilango

6/20/18 9:59am

Cowboys still get higher ratings and people love to watch them lose

RockyBalboa

6/20/18 10:01am

They get higher ratings, but I think more people love to see the Patriots lose

The issue is that GS was a superteam who then added a top 2-3 player.

Duke Silver

6/20/18 9:49am

The Warriors had a superteam before KD = Revisionist history

CaliWG

6/20/18 10:13am

Yes, the GSW-hater/Lebron-fanboy narrative gets more and more fictional and the

And they would’ve lost against a CLE team if Kyrie and KLove would’ve been

Michigan

6/20/18 10:21am

And they would've beat CLE had Green not been suspended & had Bogut been healthy

CaliWG

6/20/18 10:25am

You’re seriously disputing the fact that CLE was severely limited without

Michigan

6/20/18 10:31am

Nope. Just stating that the W's dominated CLE with both teams a full strength

CaliWG

6/20/18 10:36am

I’d hardly call the Cavs a team this year. You can’t dispute that

Michigan

6/20/18 10:38am

This year? You mean 2016. With both teams at full strength the W's were up 3-1

CaliWG

6/20/18 10:48am

Plus, there’s no excuse for blowing a 3-1 lead

Michigan

6/20/18 10:32am

No there isn't. CLE earned that championship, just like the W's earned it in '15

CaliWG

6/20/18 10:37am

I’d love to see the warriors win a title after losing their second and third

Michigan

6/20/18 10:38am

All I know that three all stars with a DPOTY is pretty dang good.

Duke Silver

6/20/18 10:59am

Draymond wasn't DPOY until 2017

CaliWG

6/20/18 11:21am

Well now you’re just arguing the definition of “superteam.” Call it whatever you

Duke Silver

6/20/18 1:15pm

Nope. Lakers can die in a fire, no matter who they play.

SandYFan

6/20/18 9:50am

I would never root for the Lakers, under any scenario.

chilango

6/20/18 9:53am

Yep. I believe people would root for the Warriors

bluelands

I want the Western Conference to truly become the conference of death

The East would be Boston and Nobody.

Lakers don’t need anything else, they have Kuzma
