    Yup such a dumbass trade. I remember the majority of Boston fans were upset about that trade too.

    It has to be on of, if not THE, biggest trade rapes in modern sports.

    The biggest trade rape will always be the Cowboys trading Herschel Walker for a bunch of picks/players from the Vikings. But this one is up there.

    Not sure how to post Twitter clips, but Nick Wright on The Herd is the first national guy to rant about what we have been saying for 3 years... destroys the GSW and their elitist attitude.

    Nick Wright has been on the herd saying stuff like this for the last few months. It's like he has been reading this forum and RCF.

    I'm just waiting (dreading, actually) for something to happen to Lebron, Kyrie, or Love. Either against Boston or Golden State. It's only a matter of time.

    Thanks, but I knew how to do that. Wasn't sure how to actually embed the video to watch on this page, versus the link to Twitter.

    LOL at some of these selections and LOL at the one fucking idiot that gave Lebron a 2nd team vote.

    Westbrook was also named 2nd team by one voter. WTH?

    Same here man. I might hate him more than Draymond Green...

    LBJ, Westbrook, and Leonard should have been 1st team on every ballot. Whoever left them off 1st team should have their vote taken away.
  • SportsAndLady
    So Paul George lost out on $200M because he wasn't selected. Ouch lol

    Agreed 100%

    I also would have out Gorbert on the first team at center instead of Davis. That is of course unless you can swap the Greek Freak with Davis then I would do that.

    I don't think you deserve a 1st-team all NBA if you can't even make the playoffs.
  • sleeper
    Also I would take Kyrie over Demar or Wall for 3rd team. Also KAT over Jordan for 3rd team.

    Giannis over AD easily this season.
