We understand. KD left OKC now OKC chances of winning a championship or even reaching the finals is even more *SLIM* and now your stuck with that so you blame KD.

[@TheXpertGenius83]

JUST YOUR DAILY REMINDER I live in OKC and have lived here since 1989. I'm not mad at KD for leaving or joining the Warriors. OKC said his mom wasn't pretty enough to be the face of the Oklahoma City Thunder. When he won the MVP but didn't deliver the Champion, media here in the papers call him "Mr Unreliable". So they attack him for not bringing home a championship cool. Don't say his mom is not pretty enough and expect this man to be cool with that! He owes OKC nothing!!! People act like the Warriors are the first super team and it's never been done before... lol, I guess to start the 2000s off no one remembers the 03-04 Lakers. Oh, I guess because they got beat by the Pistons it don't count. Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, Karl Malone, Gary Payton, ect. Wait wait wait, what about the Boston Celtics teams in the 60s?!!! Oh some think the 08 Celtics team started it, or some say LeBron started it lol. You can be mad at the decision, but don't be mad at a guy who's making a decision for himself and what's best for him not best for you the fans.

[@TheXpertGenius83]

Asap Sneakers ひ I remember OKC's first two years here. Every time they play the New Orleans Hornets it was like a home game for the Hornets because they were happy to have a Pro team but they wanted the Hornets to stay and the Hornets themselves wanted to stay if not for David Stern. Chris Paul is still OKC's Rookie of the Year. Speaking of CP3, let speak on how the fans for the first few years for Westbrook wanted to trade him for CP3 lmao

[@terell2k12]

still weakest move of all time what MVP joins a 70 win team? Malone/Ewing didn't run to the 95-96 bulls

[@TheHippityhopmusic1]

You dumbass people really don't know how teams/salary caps work do you.

[@terell2k12]

Salary cap is more now but that is beyond the point. Weak is weak nobody outside of Warriors/fans/KD/his mother can tell me or anyone else that was a stand up move. You join a 73 win team and your a MVP in your prime, what happened to being competitive like he said in a tweet when Lebron/Bosh went to the Heat.

[@TheHippityhopmusic1]

He was young back than and got fucked over by his cheap owner time and time again just like Lebron did when he left to Miami. If this warriors team didn't exist Cavs would be the only super team in the NBA, its not a bitch move its a smart move why stay and be loyal to a city that blamed him for everything, called him Mr Unreliable, got rid of his friends cause the owner was a cheap fuck and didn't wanna help the team at all. Majority of the NBA champions played on a super team, Jordan, bird, Kobe, Magic, Duncan, Shaq, Lebron himself so why is KD called a bitch for doing what any other player would have done? Legends like Barkley, Nash, Payton, Malone and dozens of others tried to ring chase but failed. All you people talk about is "rings" yet judge a dude for trying to get 1 to help his career even tho KD has been a top 3 player his whole career and deserves it.

[@terell2k12]

Magic/MJ/Bird/Kobe/Duncan all got drafted and stayed on their teams. Golden State would still be beating the Cavs w/o Durant, it was a bitch move and overkill for a so called top 3 player to join a 73 win team. He is barely a top 3 SF, Lebron/Kawhi are better but they don't have the best shooting backcourt of all time backing them up. Gary Payton has a ring btw.

[@urmenior]

What was called heroic decades ago is now a set of comical, meaningless actions. Malone didn't do it, so did he (and other former players) set up a heroic role model that must be followed in the next five centuries? Yeah, the GSW would still be beating the Cavs, but they had a major lack exposed by the OKC and the Cavs last year, that was a solid rim protector and finisher, like Whiteside. They could have got one elite center, kept the rest of their roster and they'd be good. Instead, they gave up six players, including two starters (one of whom was their starting rim protector). KD didn't know who'd be in their place, it was obvious that there was room for only some cheap players, and still thought he'd make up for everyone sacrificed for him, and make that team better. You call it weak, I call it brave. He expected all the hate, possibly more, and didn't care. And if it is still a 73 win team like many think, he went and immediately became the best player of a 73 win team, that shows how good he is, not just "a barely top 3 SF," you're just a hater, especially if you don't see his defensive improvement this season. The guy is 4 time scoring champion, would be more if he was a selfish player, he's been consistently able to score 27 on 16 shots for years regardless of what shooting backcourt he has had, he could just play in a trash team and easily average 40 ppg if he wanted to be your typical alpha dog, pretentious warrior and the symbol of a city. And this year he basically plays like (a selfless) Kobe in his prime on his hottest night on the defensive end, runs back and plays like Gobert on the defensive end (he is playing more minutes as a center than Zaza, McGee and West). He is able to do it because the team has a system which lets his skills shine. And that's why he went there, to enjoy the game without being in the position of a saviour. So he has already refused to be seen as a hero, he even said rings didn't mean much, I doubt he cares about being called a coward. He has a different perspective in which your words like "weak" become devoid of meaning, he is an individual grown man, not the puppet of a crowd that must compromise a set of preestablished characteristics expected from players. You're also free to hate though.

I'm getting sick and tired of people comparing Lebron's situation to KD's. Lebron was carrying the load of the Cavaliers while Bosh was carrying the load of a garbage Toronto Raptors team. And they decided to sign with an average at best Miami Heat team. KD left one championship contender to join an already stacked team that didn't need him. So NOOOO!!! It's not the same thing. Ya'll are just making excuses! 😒😠

Most Wanted Films lies... they won dam near 50 gms the year before. They only lost in the first round because Wade got hurt so... if you can't see him teaming up with 2 first ballot HOF'S started this fuckery then you're blind!

[@urmenior]

So if you join the forces to establish a dream team it's okay but if you incorporate your skills into an already established dream team it is not okay. It doesn't even matter lol, KD still makes millions and enjoys the style of the GSW, honestly I don't even think he'd miss one night's sleep if they didn't get a ring. Not everyone will compromise what media and fans expects from players, acting like a rabid alpha dog trying to annihilate his opponents on his own or proving himself to be the GOAT. He went there to enjoy and he enjoys it. LeBron himself is not your typical alpha dog, you wouldn't have seen MJ training with his opponents in the off-season, he trained with KD, and will immediately leave the Cavs if he can find a team where he will, like KD, enjoy his circles without taking all the burden, with a better chance to play less minutes and prolong his career. There is nothing wrong with that. You have preestablished role models in your mind and you want players to copy that. They're individual grown men, free to do whatever they want, just as you are free to leave your company and get a job somewhere you'll enjoy, work more efficiently and with less stress. That is if you are qualified at what you do and you're welcomed by anyone in the business, like KD and LeBron are.

Of course she’s gonna defend her son and call out Stephen A like that but sadly we don’t care about who the GOAT is Stephen A’s profession as much as we do about basketball. We don’t compare Stephen A to Colin or Skip in a “who’s the better debater” way cuz we know they are all there for entertainment. KD on OKC going against the dubs was so ENTERTAINING. Then next 3 years, there was no league or question about who was gonna win. Honestly I don’t know how these debate shows went through those years every day knowing GS was gonna win but still do the show(they’re getting paid ofc so that helps a lot). And even if Stephen A had a stacked network (just imagine) and he left for ESPN, it doesn’t make what KD or Stephen A did any better. It’s just another weak move by a person who’s calling out another person who made a weak move (not really the standard you should hold your son too).

Would ANY of you give up $300 MILLION EXTRA, due to his shoe contract, and his celbrity profile increasing in California, in Oakland, AND going to a perfect team for him. I find most people's ignorance of the first point to be completely laughable. People can be so ignorant. People should ALWAYS do what is best for themselves, and their nuclear family. I would much rather live in California with my family, becoming a billionaire, setting my life up, than to suffer in Oklahoma City with selfish Russell Westbrook. He can take his 42 percent field goal shooting, better version of non-winner Allen Iverson self out of the Playoffs, every year, until he learns his lesson, that Kevin should always get the final shot, unless in completely unique circumstances. Stress isn't healthy folks. I love Kevin's move, partly because I predicted it months before it happened, but also because I love it when athletes are logical. Lebron's move was similarly great. People need to stop being losers, and get over things that don't affect their lives. You are not winning the NBA championship. 12 black guys and a couple of white boys are winning the NBA championship, and, some rich white bosses. 💰😇🤗

[@urfavorite9336]

THE ONE ABOVE ALL Its not like KD was an underpaid player. He was definitely max contract material and his shoe brand was still somewhat big. The main reason why people are pissed is because he left and joined a team who could’ve still won a championship without him.

My favorite team isn't even the GSW and I still support the move, you have to be really slow to cry because his team was not ready to win, say they beat the warriors last year, they were not going to beat the Cavs, bruh start thinking before you speak man. Plus he was a free agent, "FREE" agent he was free to do whatever not free to do what you guys want him to do, why would he go to any other team if the best team is waiting at his door steps trying to recruit him? If you was in his situation and you was on the same team ever since 2007 and you never won a title why would you go back for another year when a winning team has a spot waiting for you? KD and Russel were never going to win a title together both were ball-dominant players so please shut your mouth if you don't know what you are talking about.

YaBoiExclusive NO ASSWIPE WE'RE MAD BC KD MOVING TO GSW WAS A COWARD MOVE ,BTW ANYONE WITH A WORKING BRAIN WOULDVE GOTTEN BETTER IN THE OFFSEASON & LOOK FOR A VENGEANCE WHEN THE SEASON STARTS ,NOT JUMPSHIP TO A TEAM THAT BEAT YOU IN THE PLAYOFFS WHAT KINDA BULLSHIT IS THAT?

[@alexffs935]

YaBoiExclusive WHAT THE FUCK DID U TYPE. JUST STFU PLEASE.

[@zachwhitlow4]

Truth

[@symphonylove1]

“Go do what the team needs you to do at any given time.”...KD fought to the end. Sacrificed his body. I hope GSW gets this win for him.

Durant tarnished his legacy. Championship or not. Weak asf.

[@vincewarren1271]

Comparing joining the nba and ESPN is comparing well... Not even oranges with apples unless we're just talking straight business. Then it makes sense as a business move. As far as love for the game and competitiveness, well yes it's a weak move. It takes the fire and compassion right out of the sport. Only those who never played sports to the best of their abilities would disagree.

Get em Wanda # strong black woman

[@BloggerMusicMan]

Wanda Durant seems like such a lovely person. :)

[@CivilizedCinematics]

I'm an OKC fan, and though I don't agree with his decision to leave us in the manner in which he did, I still support him. He's our hero, and seeing him succeed and seeing him happy... I guess it makes me content

[@kambuibomani231]

On the freaking money. Anyone else like SAS the biggest hypocrite on planet earth

[@enott93]

WEAK SAUCE!!!

[@Phaze1Fab1]

LeBron made a super team then left the Super team for a younger Super team after losing in the finals just coming off back to back championships. Haters Stfu and get out your feelings yall mad KD busting LeBrons ass right now 😂😂😂 #chefnkd

[@majinant2425]

Phaze-1 Fab LeBron made a super team with a team that lost in the first round. Kd joined an already established Super team that he had up 3-1. And I'm not a cavs fan or a thunder fan its just he made the playoffs predictable when he went to gsw, so he will probably win his championship but come on this team might be the best team of all time due to Durant going to gsw

[@johnprince7186]

AJ 2kGaming I highly doubt it the best team of all time, maybe one of the best teams of all time.

[@c0oc0obird]

Facts

[@kayoklutch817]

He left a team whose record was 54-28 for a team who was 33-49, KD left a team that was 55-27 and went to a 73-9 team who he just blew a 3-1 lead to.

[@Cyberclone8790]

Fuck that 🐍’s fatass mom

[@BlackOPZL96A1KING]

Kevin Durant is weak however you look at it.. however you want to explain the move to GSW, he will go down in the history books as a coward no matter how many rings his punk ass gets for free. Just stop defending him? No one was arguing the fact that he a great player, just not good enough to hold his own like literally every other truly GREAT NBA champ.

[@BRIANBA100]

you think Duncan wouldve made that move when he lost to Shaq and Kobe?

[@jameltanderson]

hamish cameron you mad?

[@abraham3231]

same thing could be said about LeBron but LeBron joined forces to beat the best team which at the time was big 3 Celtics kd joined the best team big difference

[@Monty_McFly]

XO Abel He is riding the warriors wave. when your teammates are all stars it takes the pressure off of you. he doesn't have to do as much as he did in okc. he has more one on one matchups.

[@annforgiven9130]

hamish cameron history books of who? what i know, victors are the ones who write the history and as i see it, kd will come out as a victor.
