You think bitter coli nikkas will decide a legacy?80+ daps vs 23 dapshold your L bud
Sports is totally different. Imagine playing 3 and 3 with cats from your hood against your rival neighbors. These guys some 5 star recruits and while you nice, you playing with Rayray and buggs. You up 20-1 and jus need 1 point to beat them. You go cold and everybody hitting bricks..they come back and win.Only in sports is taking the best path to success frowned upon smh. Imagine if you were in, let's say finance, and you were like fukk this compamy I'm with (in Oklahoma of all places) I'm about to join this finance company in Cali that's killing it. I will work with better people and we will be the best finance team in the country and it will be fun as well. And people called you soft for it
You shout "Next" and jump on the next team that you shoulda beat but didn't.
He had every right to go where he wanted.
But stop acting like people have to respect it or it's the same as LeBron going to the Heat in 2010.
It says a lot that every other week someone (OP/Warrior fans) is defending his move to Golden State. A lot of insecurities.

I'm just showing people why the haters are so caliente over the move. They're angry yet they was the same cats calling the Warriors lucky before.

LeBron set the precedent. Blame him. If he never stacked the deck then maybe the super team shyt would be left to GM's putting them together via trades and the draft.

This will never go away...Kevin thought the final outcome was more important and that was his play to make. With that being said he's not living that down anytime soon

I'm just saying your opinion on this subject was over ruled.
We have every right to be angry just like he had every right to go to GS.
The Warriors did face teams with key injured pieces. That's not salt that's a fact. And I don't see how signing a top 2-3 player in the NBA proves that they didn't get lucky. They were a great team who added a great player who they didn't need. Every championship team gets lucky in a way or another.

Isiah Thomas stated it perfectly
I was thinking about that last year with KD and his free agency — about how people gave him such a hard time for doing what he felt was best for him and his future. How they turned him into a villain, just for doing what was his right to do as a free agent in this league. Suddenly, it was, “Oh, he’s selfish,” or, “Oh, he’s a coward.” Suddenly, just for doing business on his end, and doing right by himself, he was portrayed as this bad guy.
But that’s what I think my trade can show people. I want them to see how my getting traded — just like that, without any warning — by the franchise that I scratched and clawed for, and bled for, and put my everything on the line for? That’s why people need to fix their perspective. It’s like, man — with a few exceptions, unless we’re free agents, 99 times out of 100, it’s the owners with the power. So when players are getting moved left and right, and having their lives changed without any say-so, and it’s no big deal … but then the handful of times it flips, and the player has control … then it’s some scandal?

Durant is supremely talented, no one will ever deny that. But his legacy will ALWAYS be that he ran to the 73 win team that he lost to when he blew a 3-1 lead. That’s just how it’s always going to be
And unless a super team forms around :spurs: there likely won’t be a team that beats them for the foreseeable future
