Kevin Durant did what you presumed he would do.
After joining the Warriors following that team’s 73-win season and historic Finals loss, he led the way in Golden State’s 2017 championship run.
The criticisms of Durant’s move to Golden State are as plentiful now as they were last July, when he announced the shock move to the Bay Area. The realization of those critics’ worst nightmares has perhaps even intensified that distain — the Warriors went 16-1 in the postseason after a 67-win season, and there’s no reason to think that they won’t be better in 2018 or 2019.
