We can agree to disagree, just seems like an odd flip, lol
There is nothing suggesting he was not loyal and there is evidence he was refusing to be traded.

It's really simple actually, he soured on a situation but never forced his way out nor even really actively sought out to be traded. There is no evidence suggesting that KG was the one asking to be traded. Like I said, it became apparent to both KG and the Wolves that a trade was best for both parties. It wasn't so much KG actively saying "trade me".

There's nothing odd about the situation. Even though he has nothing good to say about the organization, that is a separate discussion than whether or not KG was asking to be traded, which was the initial topic to begin with.

Re: Sound Off: Why Does America Hate the Heat?

Wanting out and asking/demanding out are two different things. Thibs is allegedly unhappy in Chicago and has had his relationship sour with management. Despite the relationship souring, he signed a four year deal to stay in Chicago and if they did trade him, I'm sure he wouldn't have anything positive to say either, but that doesn't mean he asked out of town.

The Boston big 3 and Miami's is not the same, no matter how much we wanna try to make it so

They all agreed to play together, therefore it happened, if we want to squabble on differences after that, it's cool. Doesn't make one right or the other wrong.

Re: Sound Off: Why Does America Hate the Heat?

Three past their prime players agreed to play together. Okay, we'll cut all the context of the situation for just the end results. Still not the same thing as three in their prime all-stars conspiring four or five years prior.

Let's not forget that Chris Paul was apart of the pact as well. The plan was four the big 3 to come together in Miami and the Paul would join them when he became a free agent, but that plan went out the window when the rules were changed in the new CBA

How would we know if those 4 guys ever had plans to join together?

I can't counter conspiracy theory's.

All I can speak on is what happened...

Bosh confirmed it, but whatever. This is an old issue.

I wonder what the reactions will be like if, hypothetically speaking, Melo teams up with the Big 3 this summer...
