PK’s Cognitive Dissonance is INSANEEEEEEEE 16:31 how are you going to put the responsibility on LeBron to be successful and then in the same breath when asked about your ineptitude to get a championship blaming the front office for not putting the right team together miss me with that mess

it’s not all about rings but how you lose is also key… greats go out swinging unless they old
Edit: how you win matters too as well as being entertaining like Cus told Tyson…

First time I’ve ever agreed with Mad Dog… But he is right. You always should make the best decision for the city and company.

I agree with mad dog. Kevin Durant is SPOILED. He wants to play where he wants to play, that’s the problem with today’s NBA. NBA stands for NOT BASKETBALL ANYMORE. If I was the Phoenix Suns, I would trade Kevin to the worst team out there. If he doesn’t like it, hell retire. He can be replaced. He always wanted to play for a super team. He’s only GREAT IN THE OLYMPICS. Because he has 10 super stars around him. That’s why he went to Golden State. Like Charles Barkley said, Kevin is a bus rider, NOT A BUS DRIVER. I’m sick of him
