    I'm not an OKC fan but I feel sick watching Durant ball for GSW

    I find myself getting pissed off watching Durant play his ex team. It really irritates me to no end to see guys screw an entire fan base like this. I hate to say it but inwardly I'm hoping he breaks his leg or something happens so that he will not have any success in GSW. Should I feel like this???

    I think its funny how now that he left he wants to have that killer instinct...okc sure could of used that when he single handedly threw the series when he played the 2 worst games of his career against golden state last yr in games 6&7

    I can't say you shouldn't feel that way. But honestly for the most part OKC never gave him the help he needed to win a championship, the closest to them doing that would be last year and we know how that ended.. I just don't think Westbrook and Durant were gonna win a ship together.. and Durant knew it.

    It's simple play with a me guy in Westbrook and never win it all, or go play with a group of team guys that have a chance this year.... how would you choose???

    They are public enemy #1 this year.

    Hopefully someone knocks them off in the playoffs.

    I enjoy seeing him playing for GS, he's in his element. KD is not a leader and in OK they wanted him to be the man and thats just not natural to him. Now he can just focus on balling and get back to having fun. GS a much more natural fit for him

    I agree he has a much better shot at winning a title but it burns my craw watching him out there in another uniform. I'm old school and I know these teams don't give a damn about the player and will trade them for some bubble gum if they could but I still hate it for the fans. The NBA needs some type of Franchise Tag IMO because it really hurts small market teams.

    I get ya. I was as disgusted as anyone when he bailed.

    But seeing him on this team, he's just more in his element. He can just be the guy that scores 40 but doean't need to be that tough leader. Even if he never won a title with GS, I think the rest of his career will be much more enjoyable in the Bay area.

    He's just a natral fit for them, and they fit him.

    This team is going to ve tough to beat for the next 5 years assuming the stringbeans stay healthy.

    They are going to be tough to beat for sure. But, I'm not sold on Pachulia in the interior and Iggy is getting older with back issues. I'm curious how they perform against tough interior teams and if they wear out over a 7 game playoff series. I think it works much better for him to not be the main man but will he choke in crunch time? This year certainly is going to be interesting.

    Steve Kerr being a dick leaving Durant in the game during the blowout trying to get Durant to 40 points.

    And soon as I said that Durant took a hard tumble. Now Kerr is taking him out.

    The Thunder got KD to the Finals.

    The Thunder got Durant a 3-1 lead in the conference finals last year against the Warriors.

    You are an idiot if you think OKC didn't give Durant what he needed to win. He had players like Westbrook, Harden, Ibaka, Adams etc. He was surrounded by a championship team for years.

    Why are GayD and Thompson in when they're up 30 with 6 minutes left? OKC pulled their starters in the third.

    Anyway, KD goes to a team with three all-stars and now he is talking shit to his former "boys". He is a pussy. He never delivered for OKC when all the chips were on the line. He disappeared.

    I don't dislike him for leaving. I dislike him for going to the Warriors. To be chummy with Draymond Green while he was kicking Steven Adams in the nuts is pathetic. Then after KD choked away a 3-1 lead he was hugging it out with Curry after the series without a care in the world while his "brothers" were hurting.

    KD is a fraud. He said he wanted to retire in OKC. He loved his teammates. He loved the city. He wanted them to hang his jersey in the rafters.....He cried and thanked Russell during his MVP speech, etc. It was all fake.

    KD hangs out with a posse and always has people in his ear telling him what's best for him. I think that's why he has said some really stupid things since "the move.

    My favorite was the clip his people put out of him shooting jumpers at 10 o'clock in the gym and he was talking about how he was "putting in work" and going to show the people that called him a "coward". Then he says shit like he "could've given up".

    WTF. Someone please pay me 25 million dollars plus endorsements and I'll shoot jumpshots at 11 pm while someone rebounds for me. How hard is it? He could have just quit and given up? Who the hell is this guy?

    Then he goes off an gets a Mt. Rushmore of 2pac, **-Tang Clan, and Rick James tattooed on his leg. This guy is trying too hard to be a tough guy. It's phony to me.

    The Warriors are going to win a lot of games. Of course, they have four all-stars. Someone said KD fits in well at Golden State. What top 10 player wouldn't fit in well there? There are too many shooters to cover.

    Were all the durant haters hating on lebron? If so then I commend the consistency. At least durant didn't make an entitled announcement to the world about it. Not did he ask an established big (20 pts 10 reb) like bosh to also leave and join him. He wants to get rings by default on stacked team just like letravel did, same beat new lyrics

    I disagree, I dont think KD was motivated solely by rings. Honestly, OKC should have beat GS last year. I think KD is sensitive and he wanted to pick the team that was the best fit for hom to maximize his enjoyment day in and day out.

    KD has to know when they win the championship this year, it will come with somewhat of an astericks next to his name

    He just wants to have fun like most girls

    If klay doesn't go bonkers I truly believe okc would've beaten Cleveland (silver wouldn't have fixed in cavs favor i.e removing players) and durant probably would've stayed

    All of letravels titles have asterisks imo. Especially this latest one where we thought stern was a pos crooked commish then Adam next in line commish silver goes and removes a player! Forget joey Crawford and the fingermen refs, the nba now physically suspends a player at a whim. Nba is a joke with freak athletes

    I absolutely hated the 1 hour variety show Lebron did with Le Decision. I wished him ill will as well.

    I was a huge Lebron basher until he won a ring in Cleveland. That ring means more than both in Miami IMO.

    I'm ranting like a moron ab inevitable corruption. I haven't seen a team win a title deservedly since the spurs, mavs and the Pistons. When miami won it with wade and Shaq with the bullsht wade free throws every other minute I thought that was the end of fixing championships bc it was imo so blatant. Like WWE blatant but oh how wrong I was

    Lebron made good by coming back to Cleveland. It would be awesome to see KD do that at OKC but I don't see that ever happening.

    Oh for sure in terms of value but even that ring has an asterisk. Draymond Green got suspended for getting kicked by lebron bc he kicked Steven adams last series? More like bc gs was up 3-1 about to win in 5 and destroy nba advertisement deals and contacts so let's make it 7 games.

    Looks familiar where have I seen that before? Oh right game 6 2002 western conf finals when kobe elbowed Bibby and broke his nose only to get 2 free throws and send it to game 7. Kings got absolutely robbed by stern on that one. They would have boat raced indy in the finals

    GayD is never coming back.

    Recently he kept talking about how Westbrook was married and he was still trying to find himself.

    Maybe that Snapchat pic of Draymond Green's junk was intended for Durant. Are they dating?

    It would explain his move to the San Francisco Bay Area.

    Don't know why people are hating on KD. Blame LeBron, he had to put an all-star team together in recent years to win a championship. Now you will see it happening all around the league. Can't blame the guy for selling out to get a ring, the supposed best player in the league wrote the book on it. How to buy a championship, by LeBron James.
