    Well on top of my dislike for ESPN media reporting and all the hate we are getting i can add RealGM to my list of hatred. :mad: they ask which team is likely to get Durant and we are not on this list. but 8 other teams are. I need an adult.:(

    No good player would want to play for D'Antoni. Nor would they want to join what looks like a dumpster fire right now.

    Anyone who thought we had a shot at Durant is just delusional.

    If u think no good players would want to play for D'Antoni,it's unfair to D'Antoni.
    Kobe just said he wanted D'Antoni when Lakes fired Brown.

    what is wrong with our emo fans?

    Durant doesn't want to come here and rightly so. Does that mean its impossible for us to find a chance at a championship?

    The durant crowd seems to be governed solely on emotions and little logic.

    It's not just speculation. He's taking meetings with the Celtics, Warriors, Heat, Spurs, and Thunder. Not the Rockets.

    It doesn't seem logical that Durant would want to go to GSW since they just upset Durant's team, but that's being reported.

    I think if he signs with GSW he's probably going to win at least 2-3 rings in the next few years, that seems like reasonable logic to me.

    this place has gotten so thin skinned. Why exactly should Durant give Houston the time of day? They have horrible chemistry. New coach who hasnt had a very good recent history of success.

    Durant wants to win NOW, not in 3 years.

    Durant is making a basketball decision, not a buddy decision. We have Harden and a bunch of unknowns and over the hills. What makes that attractive?

    True, but he's also going to be the most hated player in last 10/20 years, everybody except Warriors fans are going to laugh at him if he's going to the Warriors, and i think he knows this.

    It would be surprising to pal up with the team that just came back 1-3 to upset his team. If all that matters is merely winning, and not HOW then I can see GSW being a good choice. However, Durant will be known as someone who had to go to a superior team to win.

    In fact, when Lebron went to Miami with Bosh, Durant said something like "meh...i wonder where competitors are...", if now he's going to the Warriors it would be a bit embarassing, and the way he speaks etc i don't know, i don't see this coming...

    I don't think most hated, but he will lose a lot of respect.

    ppl said same thing about Lebron when he was going to Miami, now the media just think Lebron is the best ever. After you win a couple rings as the #1 or 2 option, you get recognition.

    Kd just wants Rings, he can easily leave GSW after winning 1 or 2 rings there.

    Lebron didn't join a historically good team, he merely colludide with Bosh and Wade to team up to make a great team.
