Kevin Durant‘s decision to leave the Golden State Warriors wasn’t a huge shock but it was a confusing move nonetheless. As Warriors majority owner Joe Lacob said himself on 95.7 The Game, Durant’s departure made no sense.
Durant had everything he could possibly want in the Bay Area. He was loved by the fans and was solidifying himself as an all-time great with back-to-back NBA championships. The Warriors were built for longterm success and KD abandoned all of that.
Not only did the two-time Finals MVP leave a perfect situation but he joined an unstable one in Brooklyn.
