AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAA

>>76791125
HOW WILL HE EVER RECOVER?
>>76791157
>>76791144
Oh so you know how to make $82 million?
>>76791162
He will NEVER EVER win the MVP ever again
>>76791219
He'll just win 3 more rings instead
>>76791266
3 rings no one will respect
While he has $82 million less + whatever paycut he is taking
Westbrook's speech was more memorable than KD's as well
>>76791297
Gay area's only defense is spongebob memes lmao

Kys my dude
>>76791297
Westbrook literally copied durants speech word for word, and it was on a publicized TV show which was more like a circus than anything else
>>76791125
>westbrooks MVP speech will go down as one of the greatest ever
>KD's MVP speech is literally a meme and gets made fun of
BTFO
It's time to log off 4chan Russ

>>76791438
You're a little too old for cartoons B
>>76791423
delivery is key. WB literally brought me to tears. KD was cheesy and beta. "you da real MVP mommy", like how fucking beta can you be??

>>76791454
>westbrick fans are resorting to who had the better MVP speech
Jesus Christ, get ready to get swept in the first round next year
Durant will be mvp next year
>>76791504
Do you think they care about getting swept in the first round? People still love Russ even if he never wins anything. He's loyal to his crappy team
>>76791125
>MVP
>First round exit by doorstop pee pee man
I'm sure he's crying. And I don't even like Durcant.
>2017 finals mvp is given to Durant
>some new meme award is given to westbrook
how can niggerhoop fans be so fucking dumb
>>76791483
>how to tell if someone is still butthurt
Not even the same guy nigger
>>76791563
I would rather get swept than be in KD's position. He literally can't win since nobody will take his championships seriously, but if he loses he's instantly ridiculed. Sounds like a lose-lose situation to me.
>taylor swift out of her break to send russel a video congratulating him
wtf i love westbrook now
>>76791588
it was decided before the playoffs. y'know, since it's a regular season award?
Is Kevin Durant leaving OKC a good thing considering that Russell won season MVP and KD won a championship ring and Finals MVP the year RIGHT AFTER KD left?
>>76791125
lol this first of multiple championships will make KD way more money than whatever he gave up in salary
Real basketball money is made with the brand
>>76791597
yeah im sure he can't live with himself rn, the fame, millions of dollars, and more or less guaranteed HoF spot are just too much.
>>76791622
Wow that's amazing tell us more about "the game"
>>76791125
Harden is probably more assblasted than KD is right now desu.
>KD wins the finals MVP
>LeStatPad wins a regular season award that Durant already got
The next logical step is Westbrook leaving OKC to win a ring and follow in Durants foot steps
>leaving $82 mil on the table for two weeks of overtime
We call him a snake like he had malicious intentions but really he's just a dumbass mark who let Steph con him out of his own paycheck lmao
>>76791483
>being this much of a faggot
>>76791125
>lose $82 million by signing with the Warriors
Oh look, it's another short-sighted 15 year old.
Here, let me explain something to you retard, that you probably didn't understand: Going to Golden State and winning a Championship was a financially brilliant move for Durant.
Why? Because shoe deals, endorsements, advertisements and sponsors of all kinds.
His name and brand become infinitely more famous because of the post season heroics and the finals win than it EVER had with being stuck in bumfuck Oklahomo
He not only enters into a financial domain of a 100x bigger fanbase and market, but he also raises appeal on his KD9s or whatever the fuck his shoe is. He creates more attention around him, although sometimes chaotic and villainous, but no publicity is bad publicity.
You fucking idiots think these players are THAT worried about their shitty little NBA contracts?
No you fucking dipshit, the ramifications on endorsements and brand name recognition is infinitely more important than the fucking shitty contract and standard they are paid by the NBA jew owners.
I mean...
Do you fucking think Jordan earned his billions because of his dumb NBA contracts, or the fact that his Shoe brand is literally still the biggest shoe brand in the (sports) world?
>>76791402
>implying he's not reading this post right now and crying his pussy ass eyes out
kys you nigger loving kike
>>76791634
kd a sensitive ass pussy
he definitely cries when he finds out people dont like him
>>76791125
Yeah he sure looks pretty sad to me.
Also Westbrick fags subconsciously know the only reason he won MVP was literally because Durant left.
>>76791597
>Be in KD's position
Mvp, Final's MVP, NBA CHAMPION, member of the 50/40/90 club HOF lock, yeah i'm sure majority of the league would trade places with him just for his resume alone.
There's literally nothing you can say to KD since only one other player in the league currently is better than him.
>B-But his r-ring doesnt count
>>76791714
this is the reason why you see David Beckham sign a $160 million lifetime deal with Adidas, or Serena Williams sign $90 million with Nike and didn't KD sign for like $300 million?
Taking a paycut to keep a team competitive is the smarter move nowadays. If Kobe would have cared this much he would have cut less of his contract but the greed was too real for this nigga. I guess on your way out you try to milk the NBA owner teet just once more
>>76791714
>KD dickriders literally think Nike is going to write him a check for winning the finals
Holy cow, man. It's not 1810, everyone already knew about him. He had no exposure left to gain.
>>76791741
>subconsciously know the only reason he won MVP was literally because Durant left
No shit dipshit. He carried his team to the finals by himself in the fucking west. He deserves it.
>>76791752
>being legit this retarded
You need help bro.
"Everyone already knew about him" doesn't detract from the fact he has a bigger fanbase and a higher appeal now, and that sales for things that he gain royalties from are skyrocketing.
This is like managing your own finances 101 dumbfuck.
>>76791746
This KD is getting way more publicity and is becoming much better known to the average person thanks to him being on the warriors and winning a NBA championship.
>>76791616
Yes.
>>76791297
Damn dude, are you 12?
>>76791752
just cause everyone knew about him doesn't mean shit. he is now selling Warrior Jerseys with his name on them and now all of the Bay Area fggots buying his shit
do you even know what the fuck you are talking about? obviously not
>>76791766
>Everyone already knew about him
This is just clearly false. Because of KD's move to the Warriors he has definitely gained way more publicity, and lots of people are talking about him surpassing LeBron as the best player in the world. If he was still in OKC and didn't make the finals this wouldn't be happening.
>>76791802
Meant to reply to this comment >>76791752
>>76791752
He probably gained way more fame worldwide now though.
>>76791125
KD knows westbrook ain't the real MVP
>>76791125
>Hey yo, Durant! Come check this shit out!
>what is it bro?
>some faggot is shittalking you on /sp/
>fuck bro! my career is over!!!
>>76791714
'
more publicity is only good if you're actually likeable. The more exposure KD gets the worse it is for his brand as more and more people find out how much of a snake he is and refuse to buy his products. Nike or BBB would be retarded to sign him now
>>76791914
Holy shit, are you actually retarded?
>>76791835
>kissing your mother on the lips
>>76791914
No one outside of 4chan actually thinks like this
>>76791743
Steph had a better career but Durant ia definitely LeChoke's lanky brother.
>>76791931
>writes 5 paragraph essay of why kevin durant isn't a beta
>entire argument shut down in 1 sentence
>only response is calling me a retard
are you actually going to debate me, or do you realize intellectually you are not on my level and instantly resort to calling me names?
>>76791939
>not
>>76791997
you get lost on your way to /r9k/ virgin?
>>76791762
What? Okc exited first round...
>>76791454
lmao this nigga cried to the nba awards
>>76792066
playoffs I meant. my mistake
>regular season MVP is better than finals MVP
>>76792114
>award for playing good for 5 games is better than award for playing good for 82 games
lmao, MVP is infinitely more difficult to win. Fucking Andre Iguadala has a finals MVP and he's dogshit
>>76791666
What was he thinking? Did he really think he was gonna get away with this?
Also what was Harden thinking getting all up in the grill of such an autistic madman?
>>76791266
>win Rings with 4 team USA members in the starting line
And?
>>76792176
Live in the moment for once and you might do something half as legendary as Metta
>>76792176
>this man thinks
>>76792151
>being the best player for a meaningless 82 games is better than being the best player on the winning team on the biggest stage in the most important series of the sport's yearly calendar
>>76792151
>MVP is infinitely more difficult to win.
Not if you can win it with your team being a 6th seed. Any All Star caliber player in the NBA can stat pad and be damn near the 8th seed like RW did this season.
>>76791125
Just curious, where did that $82 million go? Back to the Thunder?
>>76792176
He was trying to get past Artest to get the ball.
>>76792218
What is the meaning of teaming up with 3 other all stars? That's like Team USA beating Spain.
>>76791297
>the absolutely booty blasted city of this lelbron fan
>>76792218
nigga this whole season was meaningless the second durant signed with a 73-win team and formed the fucking superfriends
>>76792262
>le LeBron has no help meme
>>76792292
>deflecting this hard
Answer the question.
>>76791914
>The more exposure KD gets the worse it is for his brand as more and more people find out how much of a snake he is and refuse to buy his products.
Are you drunk? Or just stupid?
I really can't tell.
>>76792304
He's actually retarded, don't reply to these threads
>>76791125
>>76791597
Yeah except when Durant is a known name so long as basketball is a thing and 30 years from now mentioning Westbrooks name to an 18 year old will be met with "fucking who?"
guaranteed (you)s
>>76793646
>so shook by the present that you have to fantasize about the future
Fake niggas on suicide watch tonight
the 82 million supermax shit was a response to KD leaving the thunder, he was never up to make it, retard, KD literally made the players in the league more money by leaving for golden state
>>76791125
BTFO
I don't think this sport is for me, guys.
You don't even discuss basketball, at all.
I honestly think NBA should move to /asp/.
