Warriors will be nasty Teams can no longer double team Curry and Klay while slacking off Barnes and Iggy Curry Thompson Durant Iggy Green That's 4 current all stars in their prime and one former all star and great perimeter defender Perfect fit.

The next super team that's gonna form will surely include Harden in the next two years. Exciting times. Can't wait !
can't believe a lot of the "local" "media" members condone super teams citing dream, barkley and glide or Jesus shuttlesworth and KG. What the millennial goldfish don't understand is that those guys were in their early 30s with their hopes of the ultimate prize dwindling down as their bodies deteriorate. These guys are not even 30 yet. It's a shame for the league and for the fans. Seattle is Nelson right now... HAHA.
Because the game is about competition to see whose best not joining the best when you already have a chance. Otherwise what the hell is the point of watching. GSW won the most games in league history last year and got complacent and lost. They didn't need another super team member they needed to work harder. They were the best team in history they don't need to add the second best player in the world. I'm sorry that's a b**** move that shows Durant has no confidence in himself.
He could have been a senator in Oklahoma one day. He owned that state. Now he is just another side show in Silicon Valley. It will never be his team, just another cog in curry's machine. He may even go down as the third wheel. Such a long ways and a lame ending for a guy once considered potentially the best of his generation.
how can you not be excited? this will be a fun team. warriors have been dog doo for a long time when you think back to their joe barry carroll or run tmc days. they have hardly been a juggernaut. and another day with the lakers sucking is fine by me. if durant had gone to LA it would have been puke worthy but you cant deny super fun team to watch. have fun with this geez
Im not saying fans of other teams should be happy but I dont think he should be looked down on for joining the best team possible.
That's funny considering Lebron didn't join the reigning mvp, western conference champs or greatest regular season team of all time. This makes Lebrons dicision look risky af in comparison lol

There is literally no reason for any team to pay any remaining FA players more than the league minimum. You might as well dump contracts (if even possible now) and focus all your attention on a youth movement. I bet Morey wishes he knew Durant was going there before he signed Anderson and Gordon because he just blew a HUGE wad of money for nothing. I'll bet if Durant made his decision before anyone else had signed these dudes would have gotten paid a fraction of what they got. What a joke this league is going to be next year. Durant just sent OKC back to the stone age. They have no hope of competing for anything. There won't even be any story lines next year outside of "The Warriors are going for 82-0!!" The ONLY hope the rest of the league has is for Curry or Durant to have a major injury some time this next year preferably at the end of the year. That's it. I would love to watch the league implode with every team out there fighting to tank the worst in order to get the highest pick possible and the ratings plummet to nothing. I never thought I would say this but I would love to see Harden on the Spurs just to watch them beat those A-holes!! Parker Harden Kawhi Aldridge Whoever I think Pop could beat them with that. We haven't a snowballs chance in he'll this year.
