How Much Will It Bother Durant For GSW To Win Finals Without Him?
First of all, I think the Bucks have a shot at beating the GSW. But, if GSW end up dispatching the Bucks in a sweep or 5 or 6 games without Durant even setting his foot on the floor, how devastating would that be for Durants legacy and self esteem? We know how much it gets under his skin when people call him a coat tail rider or make it seem like he was never really needed. His injury right before the finals could prove all those people correct.
I think he probably wants the team to win. But on the other hand, I also think it's going to really bother him seeing it actually happen. It would also be a tremendous blow to his legacy, most of what was built on the back of his 2 rings.

Why you think that Kawhi and Raptors don't have chance against Bucks?
Btw. Who have home court advantage if Raptors beat Bucks?
Raptors had 58-24 record and Warriros had 57-25, but they won the West.

KD will start his next chapter, without further delay.

They have a chance, but not a big one IMO. Raps bench has been horrendous for some reason, Lowry is not a good playoff player and Pascal isn't there yet. Bucks are too loaded with weapons, they're perfectly built around Giannis and Giannis is just too good on both ends.

Both Toronto and Milwaukee would have home court over the Warriors in the Finals.

Players want to play, and he is no exception. He was tearing it up in the playoffs, before injury. Why wouldn’t he want to return?

The better question will be can his ego/confidence survive GSW winning the title this year without him AND then losing to them next year on his newly created NYK superteam?

Everything opposite of what you said happened in game 4.
I think it's going in 7 games.

Durant will leave if the Warriors win without him. He won’t be able to handle what people say on social media.
Klay is trying to get KD to stay. Steph and Green don’t seem care.

Five threads on the first page alone with people just pissing and moaning about Durant. It's beyond a joke now Mods should get this garbage under control

Or maybe Durant shouldn't be so entertainingly soft?

Or maybe it's been three years and people need to build a bridge and get over it. As I've said in other threads he is probably gone but I want him to stay to watch you all piss and moan and complain for years to come.
It really is highly amusing

You call on the mods to shut down something you find "highly amusing"? That's odd.
