I am happy with the Suns signing Dragic. He should have never been traded way in the first place.

I don't hate the Lakers, really. But I am getting kind of sick of them.
I'm ready to see the colliding dynasties in Miami and OKC. Houston was supposedly going to contend in there and now I guess they aren't. Maybe Chicago gets thrown in there if Miami's down. But I don't want any more teams. The Lakers are old-world. I've seen Kobe. I've seen him win it on his own. Twice. I guess he still has to win one without Phil yet. But whatever. Get off the stage. Time to see some new great dynasties. |

Houston only had a chance to contend with the great Yao Ming, and they really ****ed up that window by adding some of the turdiest broke dick talent around him (McGrady, Artest, etc)
Houston will never contend now. |

I guess they can still make the Howard trade, since the NBA is weird that way. And with DWill and Howard combined with some of those supporting scorers, the Rockets would absolutely be able to contend with the Thunder and the Lakers in the conference. |

It would be very similar.
The Magic/Kareem Lakers were declining as a power but had 2 of the top 25 players in NBA history on their roster. As they faced off against the Bulls with Jordan and Pippin, they were being challenged by a younger team that also had 2 of the top 50 players in NBA history on its roster. Granted, there's no Jordan here, but there's greater overall talent when you go roster to roster. Kobe/Nash/Howard/Bynum would probably kick the piss out of the early 90s Lakers and the James/Wade/Bosh Heat (now that James has evidently pulled his head from his ass) would be able to run with that Bulls squad. I think you're letting nostalgia win the day here. The comparison is pretty fair.

well that was never going to happen. Houston was never a major player for either. They can make all the attempts they want with good offers but if the players dont want to go there then Houston is shit outta luck |

Wow. If you think Sessions got abused by Westbrook, it's going to be 10X worse with Nash attempting to defend him. And if you switch, I don't think Nash is capable of staying with Harden either.

The difference is going to be how defenses can play LA now. Those Thunder loses were awful in terms of PG play. 33 points and 17 assists in 4 games is dog shit. That won't happen with Nash.
