The worst part about KD potentially going to the Warriors is Bam Bam coming back to this thread.

 

[Two Words]

Exactly this. Let's ignore all generational context, like how the reason Magic and Larry didn't have to form their own super teams is because the nature of the league with regards to free agency and dumb owners allowed them to step onto super teams from day 1. Nope. EVERY PLAYER SHOULD HAVE TO DO IT THE WAY THEY DID!

My only problem is if the players decided to take significantly less money to join up. Like, if KD decided to take much less money to go to the Warriors and let them still make other basketball moves, I'd have a problem with that as a fan.

If KD wants GSW he has to go this yr. They can't do it next yr because GSW will match the Barnes contract and then you have to pay Curry/Klay.

 

[TheFatOne]

Might as well go and get Butler too. We need another Hero Butler in New England.

BeCleve!

This I cannot get behind. We already had a Butler. We need a Cousins.

this we can all agree on

 

[Hitta93]

Not really, it was only a thing before he won two without him.

It's the go-to excuse for Kobe haters like me.

 

[LyleLanley]

this we can all agree on

KD and Bam Bam are going to make me root for LeBron in the finals for a second time. Someone should be shot for this.

 

[friskykillface]

KD doesn't owe Oklahoma shit , who gives a shit about them
Presi traded Harden the god after going ghost in the finals , he'd do the same to you KD

I only wish KD signed 1-2 year deals , don't lock yourself in for 5+ years

 

[Two Words]

Again I don't know about the relationship Presti and KD have. But if there was even a slim chance that KD might leave that you have to take it with an absolute certainty, because why the fuck would have want to stay because he was close and it is his best chance at a title. We have been saying this for the past few years and OKC has failed in the WCF time after time again. 2011 against the Mavs, 2014 against the Spurs, 2016 against the Warriors.
This era of superstars don't care about that 1 team for life loyalty stuff. Presti has been getting dealt great hands, but it is only a matter of time before you bust and lose.

How many NBA players leave to another team when they are on a team that is consistently contending? They tend to stay most of the time.

Heck this off-season Al Horford.
Last off-season LMA

LeBron.

I'd hardly call the 04-10 Cavs a team that was consistently contending. They had a few years where Levron was able to drag them through the garbage east before being sacrificed to the Spurs or Celtics.

Neither team was contending anywhere close to how the Thunder were and not nearly as consistent when healthy.

 

[Cornbread78]

He's going to take the easy solution and join the Celtics then. It makes too much sense. The stars are aligning. Celtics signing KD, and trading for Cousins. Championship.

Man Boggy on that team would certainly make things interesting..

 

[Hitta93]

Both pretenders.

No when LeBron left Miami

Can we all at least agree that Durant is a gigantic bitch if he doesn't go to the Celtics?

That's the only scenario in which he IS a gigantic bitch.

No. You are just mad if he doesn't come to your team.

Yes. Fuck him and the NBA.. lol

He had to win one for The Land.

 

[LyleLanley]

I don't see how you could come to that conclusion.

 

[friskykillface]

Durant should have tried 1/2 years with the Celtics
Ainge would have got Cousins probably but eh oh well

KD meeting with the Thunder just ended.

KD meeting with the Thunder just ended.

Hope he makes the announcement tonight.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Hope he makes the announcement tonight.

He's gonna post his decision on players tribune.

He walked out with a Dunkin Donuts cup

Well here we go

Saying his goodbyes.

He has the chance to undo one of Stern's worst decisions, fixing the 07 lottery.

 

[Two Words]

I want KD to leave just so OKC fans can learn what pain feels like. They've had it too good this whole time. They were given a great franchise and stole it from Seattle and have had everything but a championship so far. It's time they suffer.

woah

 

[NHale]

My guess is that if he's leaving he told them already and leaks will start to appear which is why he announces it today. If he waits until tomorrow is because he's staying.

Finally a post in this thread that I can actually respect.

KD should announce his decision tomorrow with fireworks. Just order for all of the team names to be made into fireworks but only launch the one that he's going to sign with.

 

[GravityInsanity]

 

[SparkleMotion]

At this point, I'd love him to sign with Miami or LA. One of the teams that no "sources" hve mentioned and just come out of left field.

The accuracy.

Even more accurate.

 

[TheFatOne]

Celtics fans my gut is telling me KD is signing with the Celtics, and it has a 100% accuracy. Time to buy those jerseys.

 

[Kickz]

Just sign that one year deal with OKC

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Does anyone still have that westbrook pouring water into a bathtub gif I made like 5 years ago?

Hmm but I hav to buy a Lebron jersey to celebrate his finals victory.

Guess I could meet halfway and get a Lebron Celtics jersey.

 

[Mortemis]

No matter what happens, as long as KD leaves OKC I'm a happy camper.

You don't owe them shit KD, pls leave

Some guys stating a source of Lance back to the Pacers. Call me skeptical....

OMG. If KD comes to my Warriors all the pain of losing that game 7 will be erased.

 

[catpurrcat]

Alright, everyone post their predictions now for where KD lands. We got TONS of rumors and pundits as our "sources".

The winner gets...GAF bragging rights as a NBA genius.

Calling Warriors right here
