In 10 years everyone will be talking about this GS team ahead of Jordan's Bulls nobody is gonna be tripping about the easy path to rings they are gonna be talking about dominance and nobody beating them.

Youre not entirely wrong, but youre missing the point in this thread.

As good as this GS team is, people WILL NOT be talking about KD in the all time GOAT career convo ever. This team won't be known as "KD's Warriors". Theyll just be remembered as that great Dubs team that came through and wrecked everyone with like 7 all stars. And i love KD as a player but reality is reality. The same people who still roast him to this day even after the rings are the same ones that will be telling his story in the media 15 years from now.

When ppl think of the warriors they just think of how ridiculous the team was as a whole. Circus act from KD to the end..

I don't understand how folks don't get that. They're gonna be so hurt years down the road when nobody is mentioning KD or Steph in GOAT conversations. Enjoy the team success and the rings. That's all you care about, right?

Context

KD Playing with a team with 3 perennial all stars one of whom is easily a top 5 shooter of all time and a two time MVP, another that is a former DPOY and another that has scored 35+ in a quarter, all in their primes with few derailing injuries.

Its a little bit different than Kobe, brcause if you take KD off those Championship Warriors teams they still make the finals and are 73-9. You take Kobe off those last two Championship teams and they are 10th seed and win maybe 35 games.
:pachaha: at a kobe fanboy talking about context.

Never, that fakkit didn't even take the ball out before he scored.


Essentially meaning that hes a cherry picker, all these dudes sullied their all time statuses with these cheap rings, Lebron included.



Let him go back to OKC and get one ring, then maybe he gets elevated. Until then kick rocks with any comparisons to Mike, Kobe and so on. :camby:

And yet that Warrors team that begged him to join is one he choked away a 3-1 lead to team up with. He couldve beat them the next year but chose to join them. Not because his front office was shxt, not because he had a terrible coach, not because his franchise wouldnt pay him, but because he knew it was a shortcut to a ring.

History is going to remember that.

In KD's defense, Billy Donovan is terrible & Russell Westbrook is the biggest gun the league has ever seen at PG

I’m a huge Durant fan. This sucker move he pulled doesn’t hurt how I view him

Time will take these rings out of contexts. Happened with lebron. It will happen with these warriors. Will just take a little longer. If he gets 5 rings they'll put him over Kobe.
