    Cavs might be the champs now, but if the Warriors do in fact land KD then GS has to still be the favorites next year.

    Rose to the Knicks.... I think Rose will play surprisingly well for a stretch, and show flashes of his old self here and there. Then come back down the Earth, and likely get injured. Knicks are cursed.

    Warriors dont need Durrant. They need some muscle down in the paint.

    Yeah, I don't think Bogut has much left in the tank.........or his knees.

    Ezeli and Verejao are worthless.

    Muscle down in the paint? I think you think its 1993.

    The NBA is a perimeter game now. There's NO team in the league that doesn't "need" Kevin fuckin Durant.

    The Warriors' only threat in the west is OKC. With KD joining them, that kills that threat.

    Okc picking up oladipo and sabonis becomes the favorites to me, unless durant leaves

    Not saying anybody couldn't use Durant, but if the Warriors have a pressing need, it's for a rim protector. Lebron and Kyrie beat them in the last series. Neither are fantastic "perimeter" players.

    Warriors have plenty of scorers. Durant won't make or break them.

    And what happens when those perimiter shots dont go in? That is why Steph was lousy in the finals. Cause that is all he had was that shot.

    They were pretty unbeatable this season. They need minor tweaks, not a huge one.

    If Durant goes to warriors, who leads the Team? Curry aint taking cues from Durrant. Green dont even listen to his coach. KD thinks he is going to be pulling up 50 jumpers a night and his team will be cool with that?

    Warriors dump bogut and igoudala to sign durant. Barnes is already out the door. Bogut is probably gone too so, so basically you're getting durant for igoudala

    If REED's Said it 1nce, he's Said it a Hundred Times;

    The LAST Thing Golden State Needs is a 6'11 PERIMETER Player...The ONLY Way Durant Makes Sense for them is if he's WILLING to Play in the Paint MORE than EVER Was with OKC...Jump Hooks from the Either Block, Dirk's 1-Legged Fadeaway from the Baseline and a CONCERTED Effort to Rebound and Block Shots (Which Durant Actually Did in the Western Conference Finals)...

    But Shooting Ill Advised 3's from the Top of the Key/Wings, ie., OKC Durant, AIN'T What Golden State Needs...

    Golden state would win 70+ games and go unbeaten in the postseason with durant

    Not durrant shooting up 15 shots in a row and making 2. Durrant is a panic player. He aint calm.

    Why the hell with the best shooting team in the league need another shooter. They need someone to get inside. They need Adams. Or a Noah. or Gassol. Not the pussy, but Marc

    Durant has 3 guys watching him most of the time. Teams cant do that with curry and thompson on the wings. All 3 would get plenty of wide open shots

    i disagree. he was taking a lot of contested shots vs GS and SA. A lot of times durant gets the ball he has his man guarding him and roberson's man sagging off and hedging toward durant with another guy sitting in the paint. OKC didnt really have consistent shooters that space the court aside from Ibaka

    I didnt see that. You could be right, i could be wrong. I just remember Durrant taking like 8 or 9 jumpers in a row, and those shots werent really contested. Durrant kept shooting, despite missing everything. He thinks when the game is on the line, he is the guy to go to. That wont be the case with the Warriors. I think KD wont be happy not being the man.
