Was Prime Moses Malone "Ring Chasing" in 1982?

[fourkicks44]

[QUOTE=jlip]In the summer of 1982, Moses Malone was considered by many to be the best player in the game. He had won two of the previous four NBA MVP awards, was the best rebounder in the league, and finished second in scoring during the 1982 season. In 1981 he overachieved and led his team to the NBA Finals against the Celtics. In route to the Finals Malone

Have no problem with that context, nothing similar to what Durant did... i have never in NBA history heard about a top 1-2 player immediately join the rival team (best in the nba) & player (best player) a month after he got his arse handed to him after being up 3-1, a 73 win team who (without Durant) won a championship & were some bucket/brick away from another one (without Durant) & who might win just as many games or more + championship the upcoming season again (without Durant)....

After what Durant just did ringchasing / colluding criteria levels are up to an all-time high...... its impossible to beat this...

Its like if Jordan in 80s joined Lakers/Celtics or better example would be actually joining the 89-90 prime Detroit "bad boy" Pistons... you know, doesnt make sense. Its not just the ringchasing, "cant beat em join em"... what takes the cake is that he joins the Pistons championship team immediately after they would beat the shit out of Jordan, literally, they would make him bleed... and cry... he would suffer mentally & physically... they hated eachother... like wtf?? Why? Is he plotting some secret revenge terrorist act? Cant possibly be that he would seriously join them to seriously play with them? How did they accept him anyways? Like did he bow down, kiss their shoes & proceed to go into a fetal position?

What Moses Malone did was much more similar to if James Harden join the Spurs than Durant to GSW.

no, he spent most of his time at home pounding some dirty ass ho

now to put the ball back on the OP's court. If such move was influenced by the hoes he'd been pounding (i.e. money driven at some point, then the ultimate finale of Love and Bread) what exactly does that say about them b*tches?

What Durant did is like Trump ditching the Republicans to be Hillary's VP.
