can't find a book that's offering where kd will sign.....

[lakerboy]

Cause he isn't going anywhere.

[QuangX]

Cause he isn't going anywhere.

Warriors has a shot....

[TheMoneyShot]

Durant has no killer instinct during a game.

No balls to leave his team.

He'll get paid though.

[habitualwinning]

They probably all took it down cause he said he would announce his decision today or tomorrow morning but no set time. I saw it a couple days ago. OKC was chalky that's all I remember.

[thetrinity]

Okc was between -300 and -800 on 5dimes for most of the time

[thetrinity]

I expect him to stay does he go the full max deal 5 years or just a 2 year with opt out next season is the real question

[BigDofBA]

He will sign a one year deal in OKC. I've been saying this for a year now.

He will make the most money in OKC. I even think there is a good chance he signs a longer deal to stay in OKC after the coming season.

OKC is close to a title too. Why would he go anywhere else? Thunder are better than the Spurs and should have beaten GSW.

I think KD cares about his legacy. I doubt he joins up with the Warriors just to win a ring.

Thunder came close last season but truth is they might not be that close to beating the Warriors again. Championship in the west is a very hard word for any western conference team. Closest to it will have to be the Warriors imo.

Exactly.

Teams he met with.

Clippers- just a curiosity meeting.

Warriors- in case he wants a free ring

Celtics- he should consider them. Lots of hope there long term.

Spurs- will never win again with pops. Did it out of respect for pops.

Heat- lol too funny.

Okc- best option. You win where you started. You are man that way.

[BigDofBA]

It's really three teams he is considering. OKC, Boston, and GSW in that order.

If he goes to GSW and wins a ring, it's really not going to mean as much. I think KD knows that.

This why I think it comes down to Boston and OKC. With that said, OKC is still a lot better than Boston plus he will make more money here if he stays. It seems like a no brainer.

The Thunder have known this day was coming for a long time and they have positioned themselves perfectly. There were several years in which OKC wouldn't go into the luxury penalty. OKC has been making a ton of money with all of the playoffs games etc. In other words, they've put money back for this day.

They didn't sign Harden and they let Ibaka go. It was all so they could keep Durant.

They're all in this next season and KD will be here. If OKC makes the Finals, KD will probably end up signing a 4 year deal after next season. If OKC goes out in the second round to the Warriors or Spurs, then I could see him leaving.

[lakerboy]

I read an article on what presti has done to set them up. He truly has done an amazing job.

[lakerboy]

One thing I heard was how Jerry West told him all his shots in okc are tough shots. In gs that wouldn't be the case. Amazing how he gets 27 ppg making tough shots.

[BigDofBA]

If Durant goes to Golden State, he will forever be a pussy in my eyes.

If he goes to Boston, I wouldn't really hold it against him.

If he stays and wins a ring in OKC, he will forever be a legend.

[BigDofBA]

Apparently it's down to Thunder or Warriors.

[jjgold]

It's always going to be the thunder he was just playing around expect announcement this week

[olamide]

Entertainment. That's all there is to it. He knows where he is going before all these meeting. Lol

[goduke]

He's signing with the Warriors. It'll be announced tomorrow. The prop got pulled from most places because inside people have already leaked the info to a select few

[lakerboy]

I'm not buying it. Durant isn't leaving okc.

[bradthebloke]

if he goes to gs, why even bother watching nba this year.

[BigDofBA]

My childhood best friend and college roommate works for the Thunder. Yeah I know, no one will believe me but whatever.

Anyway, Durant would have already resigned with OKC but Jerry West called him today and gave him some things to think about. Durant is probably just sleeping on it but I'm about 95% sure he is coming back.

The meetings with OKC went very well and were centered around KD's legacy which is important to KD. He wants to win a ring but he thinks he can do it here.

[MoneyLineDawg]

Legacy and Money are with OKC....how can he choose anywhere else?

One title with OKC is worth so much more than whatever he wins in Gokden State if he goes there

Boston would be a weird move but I guess I could atleast respect it

Maybe I'm old school but I hate when franchise players change teams in their primes....Lead your team to the title and you own the world

[jtoler]

[smitch124]

There are no free rings. That was proven this year. Gotta be won on the court during a gauntlet of games and series.

I think you're going to be disappointed tomorrow

[smitch124]

As a Warrior fan I wouldn't want this. These last playoffs were horrible as a fan when you are expected to win. If they sign Durant it would basically be considered a par if they won AND in my mind it would be very very far from a surety.

Exactly....if KD goes there and the Warriors win it all everyone will just be like whatever they should have won anyway with that super team....No one will care that much that KD won one either with such a ridiculous team

Why would the Warriors want to mess with what they have?

They won 73 games.

Exactly, they proved that they have weaknesses, but I don't think they need to add a star they need some better big men.

[MoneyLineDawg]

Well as a franchise why would they not add a franchise player like KD if he wants to sign there?

I just think it would suck for fans of the NBA and actually some fans of the Warriors like you were saying

Also think it would be a bad mistake for KD personally (legacy)

NO they can't. If anything okc downgraded this off season

Lebron knows most about legacy in today's league..... Kd is an idiot and will not get a ring.... IF he doesn't join golden state.

[Ratzz]

Kevin Durant will stay in OKC.

Kevin is not a chance taker. likes familiarity. He likes the same bed, in the same house,
likes to drive the same car to work every day. He likes to see his mother. He can't ask her to move with him.

the fact that he only took 10 Shots after a full 3 Qtrs in Game 7
will tell you all you need to know about what he's gonna do next.

Westbrook has a year left on contract, and he won't play in OKC without his partner.
so they will talk it over next season..

but he does not really have the nerve to go it alone and start something new.
he's talented, but not crazy in any way. Winning it all requires some craziness.

i think perhaps a craziness that he does not have.
Oh.. Kevin will realize it eventually–

..but probably only after his hair has long turned white
as he gazes out at the fireflies dancing under the willow trees
from a rocking-char on his veranda.

I don't think this is true at all because everyday on here I see people drooling all over lebron and he had a super team with the heat but now no one has any issues saying he's 2nd best blah blah blah

[goduke]

They won 73 games.

And loss title game and curry couldn't get as free as he did during the season. Durant allows the ability for curry to have more space or else durant will go off. Klay is a great shooter but people aren't afraid of him taking his defender off the dribble
