Have always liked Fiz.

And current Knicks, yes, anyone can beat them.

We'll see if that's the case next season...

i dont know if he is gonna end up in NYK, but i do think he leaves...

i think his drive was initially to win a ring...he did that and many say he is soft and its still Curry's team and they won a ring before KD ..and that his titles dont really carry that much weight

i think now KD wants to win the most of his contemporaries...(of the big name guys)...so if he wins this year he is past Lebron...but he will always be 1 behind Curry as long as he stays there...

and has that huge cloud of how he never really has led a team...he went to GSW and everyone still views Curry as the leader

i think he goes and tries to get his own team and get another guy or two to join up but where he is the clear "leader" or the guy who does the planning to get team together...and try to win there to tie Curry and/or pass him...

or maybe he just goes to the Lakers with Lebron knowing he is already 1 up on him and can never drop below him now if he is on his team...

Pretty funny to see a lot of folks think KD will pair up with someone like Irving next year.

Irving wasn't happy with Lebron, gets his request to get traded to the Celtics.... Who are one of the most prestigious organizations in the NBA, with one of the best young coaches in the game, arguably one of the best GMs in the game, playing in front of a rabid fan base while being the #1 guy with a solid supporting cast...

And yet, Irving is STILL not happy. And people actually think this guy is going to make it with this dysfunctional front office and ownership of the New York Knicks? Cut me a break. I'll never buy that

Winning a title with horrible heritage like the clippers or even the Kings (modern heritage) is really the best way IMO to beat that idea that he just won after a team was stacked for him. Knicks would be pretty close though since they have been so dysfunctional the last 20 years

Conversely, if he stays with the Warriors and they win a few more titles, he becomes part of the greatest basketball dynasty of the modern era.

If he leaves after getting a few rings, then he becomes just another ring-chaser.
