Rapper Pusha T is not a fan of the NBA in its’ current state due to their being too much player movement and the whole notion of super-teams. The right-hand man of Kanye West also takes a subtle stab at LeBron James in criticizing the NBA.

Pusha T: The whole basketball thing, I’m like really, really depressed about basketball in general.SI.com: Why is that?
Pusha T: This new style of basketball: the teams and the trading and players getting together to be on one team, trying to create the superteam. I’m just not into that. The musical chairs, it’s like, you can’t actually love a team because either the players or the owner are always thinking so far ahead in trying to be better for the next year or the years to come. Like you couldn’t tell my dad in the years of Magic and Worthy that (the Lakers weren’t) the best team. You couldn’t say anything about his team. Now I feel like these days, we have LeBron have a 60-plus-win season with Cleveland, then he goes to a team that’s already made their mark. I just feel like you can love the players, but you can’t honestly love the team, the franchise, like you once could because of all the musical chairs.
