    Sources: Durant is Signing with Rockets or Warriors

    If Durant joins the Warriors...I am done with the NBA. Regular season would so worthless....like it is now. You pretty much have San Antonio, Cleveland and the Warriors in the mix now....that is it.

    I heard from an unnamed source Al Horford, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Dirk Nowitzki, Mike Conley, DeMar DeRozan, Harrison Barnes, Pau Gasol, Dwight Howard and Hassan Whiteside are all headed to LA Lakers.

    Little parity in the NBA and it will get worse...

    The NBA Salary Cap and Luxury Tax line are already set for an unprecedented jump but the final number will be even higher than first expected according to a report by USATODAY.com’s Jeff Zillgitt. According to a memo sent to teams by the league, the salary cap will come in at $94 million while the luxury tax line will settle at $113 million.

    Durant will probably remain in OKC for 1 more year.
    Horford maybe to G.S where he would be
    a good fit.

    I'll admit that there is some intrigue to NBA free-agency:

    1) Assuming that Barnes leaves GoldSt, Horford surely would be a good fit. Slide Green to 3-man.

    2) Durant simply can't go to GoldSt. How is that even possible?

    3) Lebron will stay in Clev one more year. What is his next move? I really think he might go to LALakers, purely to get on big stage.

    Horford the most underrated FA this year, would take him in a heartbeat, while some team somewhere (probably the Raptors since they are losing Derozan) is going to give the max to Barnes only to realize you will be getting the Barnes from the finals and not the one who benefited from the warriors excellent ball movement and style.

    Can thank LeBron for where we're headed. Along with the cap. These small market, lottery teams have no chance. 5-6 will win the title for the next 15-20 years.

    Zero chance he signs w the warriors. Absolutely ZERO chance.

    They cannot offer him enough money because they have too many stars they have to pay.

    Also, it would be absolutely horrible for his brand fir him to go to GS.

    he'll let them pitch him and he'll visit the bay area just for fun but absolutely positively ZERO chance he signs w golden state

    I'll eat my words like a motherfukker if I'm wrong

    After watching the Orlando 30 for 30, you realize how so many things had to happen for Shaq to leave Orlando. The Magic screwed themselves and only after that, did Shaq go to the Lakers. So hard to get a free agent to move. Lakers are going to learn what the Knicks learned a long time ago....don't rely on free agency.

    This offseason has the potential to be crazy in a once in ten years way because of the salary cap increase. All the sudden teams have room for max guys where they wouldn't if not for the new TV deal.

    Durant on GSW would be fun. He needs to wait a year to get the new salary cap money though. Would a sign and trade for Harrison Barnes work logistically? Is it legal?

    Gst would have to do a sign and trade for Durant. Teams will meet w KD now to get a feel for him for next offseason when he will sign a monster long term deal to either stay in OKC or move on.

    Top 5 player who still hasn't even hit his prime.

    lol I didn't hate on lebron for leaving cleveland because there was NO rational reason too.

    If durant left OKC for GSW that deserves real criticism.


    Lebron going to miami is no where close to durant going to GSW

    Ibaka and Adams come to mind as 2 guys who benefit from playing with both KD and Westbrook.

    Dirk was and still is a volume scorer. He seemed to do ok for himself and Durant is more versatile than him.

    Stick to hockey jj. Most of us don't pay attention to the 3rd world sport so you can throw your nonsense out there and we will just nod our head, agree and move on.
