Sure sounds like KD is leaving

anyone else starting to feel like he might actually stay? I was 100% convinced he was gone. Now, not so sure....

I was saying it’s 90-10 that he’s leaving.

Now I’d give it 60-40

Don’t think he’ll stay but I guarantee he’s not going to the Knicks. No way anyone can sit down with Mills and Perry and want to play there. Those dudes don’t even show up to the lottery and then make Patrick Ewing go there and answer questions for them. It’s a trash culture.

He’s staying. Steph called him his “brother” in the post game after KD got injured. That’s all Durant has ever wanted. If Steph is taking him under his wing as a friend, he’s going to stay

I've had a change of heart. Pay Draymond. Just like Andre we can not replace him. Coxy was right all along.

KD can kick rocks.

I still stand...100% he is leaving...unless GSW owner gives him share of the team...then he'll stay. He wants to be MVP for a team of his own...he knows GSW belongs to Curry.

My apologies for you giving a hard time. Draybeast > KD

The way Draymond is playing I'm not even concerned if he leaves now.

Curry and Dray have always been the best two pkayers on the team. This goes back to Mark Jackson’s last year.

Betting odds now have him more likely to stay than going to the Knicks.

There's a thread on the General Board, and the Op has raised the question "Replace KD with _________, and it makes the Warriors better". Then he throws out names like Kawhi Leonard, Lebron James, Giannis, Davis, etc.

Some people just don't get it. Any of those players wouldn't make the Warriors "better", they make the Warriors different. Players that would make the Warriors better in place of KD at the SF position, are guys like Khris Middleton, Otto Porter Jnr, Pascal Siakam, PJ Tucker, old man Ariza, and even a youngster like Jonothan Isaac. Guys that don't need the ball, have defensive versatility and length, can hit the 3 ball, are smart, great compliments to ball dominant players. Taking the ball out of Steph, klay and Draymond's hands to cater to an Iso heavy scorer, does not bring out the best of what we are.

Give me Ariza next year on an exemption deal, we won't skip a beat.

I'd take Ariza but I just get the feeling his asking price will be more than we can offer.

I think Myers needs to call up Schlenk and try to work out a trade for Taurean Prince.

Nice idea, I like it.

Maybe i'm in the minority right now but I still think we're better with KD against a long defensive team like the Bucks. Something we struggled against pre KD. Say we reach the Finals and meet the Bucks I believe the Bucks defense will alter what we're currently doing against a much smaller & weaker Blazers defense. Their bench is also seems deep as **** and while ours is a bit depleted. Playing well right now but it's the Blazers and the Rockets never trusted their bench.

That said i'm enjoying the offense. Steph & Dray just toyed with the Rockets & Blazers in crunch time

Strange. At the rate this offseason is going, if the Warriors manage to win an NBA title with KD on the sidelines, I wonder if that would increase the likelihood he leaves.

Yeah, not looking forward to a Bucks-Warriors finals, if it gets to that, without KD.

Kd and Boogie based on expected timelines should be back for the Finals and they’ll need them.

Bucks have 6 legit players in Bledsoe (weakest link of the 6), Brogdon, Middleton, Mirotic, Giannis, Lopez. 4 proven shooters.

Steph would he completely worn out by now if we didn't have KD to lighten his load during the regular season.

KevinMcreynolds · Post #619 » by **KevinMcreynolds** » Fri May 17, 2019 2:04 pm

We should resign him then trade him at the deadline for 3 future 1sts so we can retool for the future while Steph/Klay/Dray get old.

Get it done Bobby boy! :wink:

Curry, Klay, Draymond and Andre are out there showing KD that he would be crazy to leave. They are all true pros with hearts of champions. He will never find another superstar with Steph's personality or another team with a front office like the Warriors that puts winning above all.
