Kevin Durant signing with the Golden State Warriors broke the world wide web. His name continues to be linked with comments from analysts and fans from all over the news feed.
Sports CheatSheet tagged LeBron James as the best player on the planet for playing in the NBA finals for five consecutive years. Having built this stellar reputation in basketball, it is interesting to know how "The King" perceives a powerful tandem as rivals in defending the NBA champion title.
iTech Post claimed that the Stephen Curry - Kevin Durant tandem is a "major upgrade" for the Golden State Warriors. More so, it raised the issue of LeBron James being possibly threatened.
With Kevin Durant's hunger for his first NBA championship title and Warriors' key player, Stephen Curry, bouncing back after a failed attempt of the championship last season, the drive to win rings of the Warriors should be watched out by the competing teams.
In similar news of teams strengthening their rosters, Dwayne Wade is rumoured to replace JR Smith should Smith decides to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers. It can be recalled that James and Wade, who were star players of Miami Heat then, played four championships together and won two of them. Thus, this speaks volume of how efficient their tandem was.
The Cavaliers must exert extra effort in luring Wade as Miami Herald already reported that other teams, namely, Dallas Mavericks, Denver Nuggets, Milwaukee Bucks, and Chicago Bulls have been eyeing the veteran guard and have secured a meeting with him.
It is not known for sure if Cavaliers eyeing for Wade to play for them is a way to counter the rumoured threat for LeBron James. If a James-Wade tandem so happens, the fans should look forward to an exciting season with veterans teaming up to play in the NBA. However, since Wade already signed up a deal with the Chicago Bulls, that might be easier said than done.
