    i read the royce young article he did on kd

    he sound like a hurt fan

    that article was his cry

    he had some decent insight but his article came off very homerish

    sounded like a mad fan more than an objective writer

    the points he made about kd not wanting to be the leader anymore and or the 'two headed duo' were insightful

    everything else wasnt

    There's more than one way to build a contender, yours just won't work

    You can get Cousins and you'd make the playoffs but that team ain't getting past the Bucks in a couple years or Cleveland now or any West upcoming team

    Idek why a Wizard fan would be opposed to giving up Wall/Porter for Westbrook

    Westbrook is a top 10 player, Wall ain't top 20...What we talking about ?

    So explain how Westbrook is going to get us past the Bucks and the Cavs?

    He's not but he's a better piece to build around

    You talking about trading for Cousins so y'all can be the new Atlanta

    and somebody tell me how a top 20 player couldn't compete for the 8 seed in the East

    Wall and Cousins are better building pieces than Westbrook and Beal which is what you are saying. That is easy to see.

    Let's start off with Wall being injured damn near the whole season and still playing 70+ games. Beal only played 55 games. The rest of the starters are Gortat, Porter and either Nene or Jared Dudley. Then the Morris twin took over the 4 spot after a mid-season trade. Biggest factor of all ? Randy Whitman as the coach.

    For an injured non-score first PG who had that line up to play with. the wizards were competing for the playoffs considering they finished 3 games back from the 8th seed. I'd say Wall did a hell of a job.

    Westbrook> Wall/Cousins

    Westbrook/Cousins>>Wall/Cousins

    I'm not talking about the ? ass Wizards anymore

    I don't see how KD was frustrated with Westbrook it was plenty of times in big moments and games where KD was acting like a ? and not taking over and Russ had to cover for his ass like said before that's why Lebron always will own KD when he play certain players and teams he strinks under pressure KD blew a 3-1 lead to GS because that was his team and he neverd took over the last 3 games and it cost them the series He taking the Hoe route if he trying to blame his decision for leaving on Russ he should said I left because I need more help.

    Preach! Can't think of a game where Durant said, "? it! Ball!" since that Spurs game ages ago where he dropped like 16 in the fourth on some LeBron versus Detroit Jr. ? .

    Durant went like 6-20 in the 1st half of game 6 of the wcf he was overly aggressive and missing mad shots,y'all do not be watching these games just run wit narratives

    !00% ? on all that ? you talking.

    Westbrook and Cousins could never be better than Wall and Cousins for the simple fact that Westbrook would NEVER feed Cousins in the post. Only the Lord knows how many shots Durant would've gotten if he couldn't handle the ball and had to depend on Westbrook for post entry passes.

    You one of them ? who was impressed with Westbrooks run of triple doubles with a box score of 30pts on 10-35 shots 12 rebs 13 ast and 9 to.

    There is no "fascination" with wall. He's a dope player we appreciate, it's that simple. Comparisons with rondo and sayin there are 15 better pgs and over 20 better players are just asinine statements. Whats the fascination with actin like we stans when we point out how stupid that ? is?
