Durant stuck it out with westbrook trying to be the star of the team but having a pathetic shooting percentage for a few years
He's justified in wanting to leave especially after the Thunder dropping Harden like that didn't help them at all

Of course KD wants to win big as he's been on this team for 9 years and has nothing to show for it.
The only thing to be critical about is KD not making the finals this year and going to the team that beat him.
To me he was always going to leave OKC this year
I guess. I just don't like it. They are turning the NBA to AAU basically.

Brothers if KD signs a 1+1 player option with the Warriors that means they don't have his Birdrights with Steph and KD being free agents next year do the Warriors even have enough cap space to sign KD and Steph to contracts with Draymond and Klay having contracts and if they are would they be able to even put reserves around them who aren't playing for a pay cut?

That 1+1 means he will opt out and possibly do this all again next season right?

In the end, the Warriors were the only team that really drew his interest. Durant's reps at Nike love the idea of him stationed in the Bay Area, even playing with Under Armour's signature star, league sources say. Executives from another team that met with Durant said he spent most of the meeting silent and didn't ask any questions.






Warriors again have the chance to be an all-time team

Grown men don't need justification to do them. That said, it wasn't OKCs FO that blew a 3-1 lead up 8 at the crib with 4 minutes left. He looked like he was trying to give Russ a run for his money then.

49ers..Braves..Celtics
There was only one Kobe. Maybe throw Jordan and the 80s ball players in there. Kobe throws his big dominant big man off the team to prove something and did. Won two more.

Durant joins a super team and doesn't have a competitive bone in his body :dead:

OKC should've traded Westbrook when they had the chance now they lost both Durant and Westbrook and they will become the Sixers of the West

I dont think they would have set it up where they couldnt sign everyone long term. Im not sure what the language is in the CBA that allows it, but there was no way they were that short sighted. With the cap going to 104 or whatever, could they sign KD to full max, and go over cap using Stephs bird rights?
