If you are Kevin Durant why wouldn't you sign to a East Coast team

Ugh... please stop with this Miami "superteam" narrative. If anything he WAS the "superteam". We all know that the Heat weren't nearly as good as everyone thought they were. Bosh wasnt the player he was with the Raptors. He damn near missed the entire playoffs in 2012. Wade was a shell of his former self. And they still won..thanks to who? If the Cavs were healthy last season they would have wrecked GS... and who got them there his 1st season back? Wether or not they are "intimidating" or not, the Cavs are extremely hard to get past with LBJ in the picture.

The fact of the matter is that any team that Lebron sets foot on wins the East, period. His dipping FG% isnt a factor because he impacts the game in too many different ways. KD can't get past the Cavs by himself. He's going to need a lot of help and he's not going to get that with an Eastern team.
Why are you going on like LeBron isn't like 32? Really trying to downplay those Heat squads though? LeBron then > LeBron now. KD and the Celtics getting past them wouldn't surprise anybody but you I guess. Staying on the west would be stupid. For all his success there they've only been to the finals once. The east would be an easier route

I think if I'm him I'm going east. Boston or Miami. I think justice Winslow and bosh and white side are nice pieces. Joe Johnson and luel dang off the bench is nice too.

The coaching for Boston is just so nice. That perimeter defense is nice but they defineeky need a shooter and rim protector. That perimeter defense would be crazy tho

I think it would be dumb to leave immediately, he should delay it for a year.

I just don't see the chemistry.. with a new coach, the thunder should be moving beyond iso ball.

Durant will have to do some wild shyt to put himself in a position to contend with the warriors. The league needs a new Heatles with a couple more all stars
