But in his home dwelling...the hi-top faded warrior is revered. *Smack!* The sound of his palm blocking the basketball... the sound of thousands rising, roaring... the sound of "get that sugar honey iced tea outta here!"

Sometimes I have to remind myself, "no, most fans don't care what a backup center shot on floaters, let alone know who hartenstein is" lol
I've heard the clippers probably can't afford him after bringing in wall. Would be a solid pickup for another team.
Not bad.

Floaters aside, is he any good? How is his defense?

Yep and good passer for this position:
Remains to be seen if he can spread the floor at all for real. I think they still bring back Mitch to start.

The fact that the two teams he's asked to be traded to are both no. 1 seeds... Such a cupcake.

He may retire with the distinction of being the best not to have his number retired anywhere. There is a real chance. # retirements reflect the feeling fans and management have for the players. Orlando never retired Howard or Shaq's number for instance due to how much mgmt remained pissed at them. Anthony Davis will not get his number retired in New Orleans due to fan sentiment.
Feelings are ambivalent about Durant in the Bay Area and OKC. I don't really think the bitterness of either fanbases is legitimate but it doesn't matter. It does exist. Brooklyn mgmt will outright hate him based on how these 3 yrs went with his enabling of Kyrie.

I'd be surprised if Golden State didn't retire his number

me too but it isn't impossible that they don't. Especially if there is real bitterness from within the organization. At least in SF I meet a lot o Warrior fans. Views range from thankful to annoying mercenary who we didn't need anyway.
