I wonder if George Karl wishes he would have been a free agent coach juuuuust a little longer. Not that coaching Boogie is a bad thing...but to be able to coach KD, Westbrook and Ibaka is any coaches dream.

I thought I read somewhere that Donovan recently reached out to Durant and Westbrook as part of his own due diligence.

Anyways I'd be sad to see him leave Florida but wish him the best of luck.
