Which teams Big 3 Will Implode first LeBron/AD/Russ or Durant/Harden/Kyrie?
Neither team will win the championship next year

eastbayak · 08-05-2021, 06:31 PM

Well, technically the Nets. Refer to last season.

The Nets were the width of a 3-point stripe from having a darn good chance of winning a title. It of course depended on whether Kyrie or the Beard could recover in time (or KD not going down with injury as well) to help win a series against ATL or PHX.

I haven't checked the oddsmakers, but I'm guessing that the top 2 odds-wise are LAL and BKN and it's fairly close, then followed by MIL, DEN and LAC, and then UTA and DAL?

I always knew GOATcards didn't know what he was talking about, this just confirms it.

So that's a "sell" on these teams/players based on uncertainty mainly about injuries? Or I guess you can try to outsmart the betting markets; you're saying that the oddsmakers are giving too good odds on either of these teams? Anything you'd like to specify in terms of better odds ratios? (I can't take seriously that you'd give them no odds at all on winning a title. It's about probabilities and you're just giving them low probabilities.)

Lakers don’t have a big 3 so I choose them

I dont see the Laker's imploding but I can see injuries to AD derailing the season. Everyone knows the Alpha Dog is LeBron, at least for the first 47:55 seconds of the game.

Dodgerfan74 · 08-05-2021, 09:36 PM

LeBron-1, AD-2, Russ-3
There you go
Easy as 1,2,3

drobfan8 · 08-05-2021, 10:03 PM

I think BKN look very hard to beat if theirs are healthy.

Lakers probably have more question marks even if everyone is there.

So I'll say the Lakers. Even though I think they'll win.

But if neither teams make the Finals we'll all be winners. The drama queens on these 2 teams are off the charts and it's better without them.

Nets get my vote

Ginger Ale · 08-06-2021, 12:46 AM

Harden Healthy
Durant Healthy
Irving Healthy

Anthony Washed Up
LeBron Won't play every game
Russ ball hog

Lakers will implode
Nets will win

you all don't realize how good Durant is because most of you all don't play or understand basketball

no offense

Might be MyPillow guy level of stupidity right here. We don't know durant is good? Gtfo.

I do know kyrie hasn't won anything without bronbron, and harden has NEVER won anything.

This is an all-time troll job. Nice work.

Harden - HAS NEVER WON ANYTHING! Head case.
Durant - Great Player.
Irving - THE BIGGEST HEAD CASE of All-Time. Can't play a week w.out needing to attend to family matters at Harden's strip clubs.

The best thing for the GAME of basketball is for both teams to implode early...and to have a GWS / Milwaukee final.

That is a fact.

I like KD so I am rooting for him.

Curry Vs Giannis would be amazing too!

I would say the best thing for basketball would be a fully healthy Nets/Lakers finals. The storylines, superstars and the amount of hate watching would drive ratings and interest through the roof.

Game 7 of that series would give the super bowl a run for it's money

Agreed

I don’t give a crap about either

Lakers vs Nets is a ratings bonanza

Whether you think it’s “good” basketball is different

The NBA is praying for those finals

I do agree with GWS vs Milly Wau Kay

Politics and chemistry should be fine with Lakers, not so sure about Nets.

The injury factor is so important. And defense is also critical. After a long season, with their age will the Lakers have enough left in the tank to play elite defense? If healthy going into the playoffs, I will take the Lakers.

I really don't like Harden and his antics/foul play. I remember watching Harden actually grab the defenders arm and hitting himself with it - and then somehow drawing the foul for getting hit by the defender. Then the time the defender was running behind him, and Harden stops, leans and shifts to get in front of defender, and the poor defender bumps into him with defensive foul. Dirty player in my book. OMG, only Harden. He deserves to NEVER win a ring. Hope karma sees to that.

I own not one single Harden card and never will.

What a delightful thread

ClipsandVols · 08-06-2021, 06:55 AM

I don't think either of them implode but I would say the Nets would be more likely. I have no issue with Kyrie but I could see him choosing to focus on something else for a little while and that causing issues within the team.

hauntedcomputer · 08-06-2021, 07:00 AM

I'd take the field over both of them.

I'd be surprised if either went into the playoffs at full strength.
