    In theory, you're right. But having Kawhi, Durant, and Aldridge all on the same team with Pop as the coach would lead to so many blowout wins that none of that Big Three would be playing heavy minutes. Hell, they won 67 games this past season WITHOUT Durant. You add him to that team and the Warriors' 73-9 record may not last even one year.

    On paper there's no doubt, but there are a lot of "if", personally i'm not sure how Durant fits with Aldridge, i think in the end great player find a way to play together but, don't know...anyway, other than this, which may well be nothing, you have to keep in mind that Parker is done, and most of all that Duncan is done (or at least that's what it seems), and this will be huge cause we're talking about one of the very best 4/5 in the history of the game. Durant, Kawhi, LMA is still impressive (on paper), but a done Parker and a retired/done Duncan are basically two huge holes for the Spurs (add to this argument Ginobili which is basically their point guard from the bench).

    Personally, i think that if Duncan and Ginobili are going to retire, they should try to sign Pau and Conley, these two guys would fit perfectly with them imo, and at least Conley can be a part of their core going forward with Kawhi and LMA. Obviously Durant is Durant, but with Duncan (C), Ginobili (SG/PG) and Parker (PG) at the end of their carrers, maybe would be smart for them just try to sign a center and a guard more than a SF/PF since they have Kawhi and LMA.

    Why would you want two people under the possible Lil B curse at the moment.

    So I realistically believe that KD is staying put. But gotta think we should be pulling for Cleveland here.

    Don't want KD thinking that his current team was the closest to beating Golden State.
