The story about how Kevin Durant told former Oklahoma City Thunder teammate Russell Westbrook he was joining the Golden State Warriors keeps getting more and more intriguing. It was assumed, after the two spent eight years together with the Thunder, going to four Western Conference Finals and a Finals appearance, spending essentially their college years together, that there would be some sort of heartfelt discussion. A discussion that even if Russ didn't like it, he'd understand and the two would part ways and remain friends.
