I don't think superteams forming is really that big of a deal. Kevin Durant is generational bitchmade. We aren't going to see someone like him for a long time.

So we should all discount LeBron's miami rings then for being the first bitchmade

Naw Wade is more of a cold blooded player then LeBron. See: 2011 Mavs vs Heat

If Lebron wasn't a "bitchmade" then why did he form a superteam in the south? Then leave Miami for Cleveland after he saw the writing on the wall? He was shook as gently caress.

I've just had a revelation.

Why does Durant take so much heat for joining the Warriors but they all seem to get a pass for recruiting Durant? They win 73 games and fall 1 game short of a title because they finally played a healthy team and they have to go out and recruit Durant. I feel like I've opened my eyes for the first time. It's not Durant that's a giant baby that can't take the heat. It's the Warriors.

That 2010 Cavs team was terrible. Who was their second best player? Mo Williams?

And it's one thing to form a superteam but joining the team that knocked you out of the playoffs is kinda weak.

Bitchmade is a fanfiction term, it's not built on anything logical so trying to argue for or against it is kinda pointless.

The Warriors availed themselves of an opportunity.

Durant made a choice.

Thats my point on why players leave teams. The owners try to guilt trip them and have them stay but gently caress that.
