Kevin Durant's decision to leave the Golden State Warriors could reportedly come down to his relationship with coach Steve Kerr and his desire to be seen as a franchise face.
"One front office executive said that Durant has been unhappy with the prodding from Steve Kerr and the feeling that he never can be—no matter how great he performs and how many individual honors he compiles—the centerpiece of a team that holds Steph Curry in the hearts of the franchise," Steve Popper of Newsday wrote.
The latter part of the theory is more believable than the former.
