Looks like KD & Kawhi work on title number 3 together in NY for us.

Kawhi is not coming here... this speculation is just getting desperate at this point. Talk about real scenarios.

I think these rumors are surfacing about Kyrie to the Nets because word has got around that Durant will stay in Golden State. This series is a wrap, and Durant wants to return to help this team and win.

The sources are saying Kyrie is favored to go to the Nets. There has not been any sources about Durant going to the Nets, only the garbage on the General Board. I thought it was pretty clear that the Knicks didn't want Irving unless it got them Durant. Irving might have taken that as a slight, but that's another issue. Nets might be the only team willing to give Irving a full max and make him their #1.

But why would Kevin Durant return? Lettuce be real, it's pretty obvious:

1) He gets to return and prove to the fans that the Warriors do need him
2) More money
3) His chance of winning more championships is still greatest with staying with Golden State than any other team.

Does that really matter for his legacy? Kawhi just took a team that was a joke in the playoffs to the finals and on the brink of winning a championship. GS will always be a 73 win team and a finals champion without KD. 'no matter what he does with GS, his legacy will never reach the level of some of his peers.

THIS!

KD has proven his point, so he'd be stupid to return now. THEY NEED HIM and everybody knows it. If he goes back and loses, the "We don't need you" argument returns. Plus, it's still Steph's team. His best bet is to move on now reveling in the knowledge that he was vindicated.

That’s the advantage if your team knows where it is in the cycle which in the Hawks’ case is clearly in the rebuilding phase.
