Nobody knows ****. I bet Durant is so far in his own head right now. Similar to Horford , he will make a decision when he is ready. I think he wants to be a part of this franchise. I think he understands legacy and wants to be considered one of the greats.

But if winning immediately is his biggest concern. Then I think Golden State would be the obvious choice. That starting 4 with any serviceable center is going to destroy people. But, He wouldn't carry as great of an individual legacy.

Resigning with OKC on a one and one deal makes the most sense. But the report is he doesn't want to go through FA again next year. Why would he resign a long term deal now without Westbrooks commitment?

He may not pick us, But we offer a very compelling story for his legacy. Watching Durant battle Lebron over the next few years would be great for th NBA.

Celtics without KD still have a chance but Ainge would just have a much smaller margin for error and obviously need to make moves within the next year.

With KD, I won't be as excited as 2008 in the immediate short term since the competition now is better but the window of opportunity would obviously be longer if KD stays healthy.

If he signs a 1and1 with OKC, I'll shrug it off and move on.

If he signs long term with OKC, I'll think he's a dumbass.

If he signs with GS, he's a giant pussy.

If he signs with Boston, he's the GOAT.

This is like taking a fn dime out on a date, having her giggle and kiss your neck all fn dinner and at the movies, take her home and than she sneaks out the back fn door while you are in the bedroom getting ready to pound it. FML. Just make a decision pal........I can't deal with this BS another 12 hours.

I'm all for freaking out, but I don't buy it LOL


I buy it more than anyone else actually. I think Danny would keep him informed as he probably agreed to come here with the promise that we aggressively pursue Durant.

If you look at her last tweet, it's a bunch of hopeful emoji faces. Could be a good thing.

Or no one knows **** lol.


I don't buy that the first thing Ainge does when he finds out Durant isn't coming is call Horford and the first thing Horford does is call his sister and the first thing his sister does is tweet some emojis but then it just stops there and no sportswriters pick up on any rumors for the next half hour. She might be closely following Durant, but she is probably acting on the same public information we have, which is to say a bunch of twitter farts coming from the butt of the internet.

I can't fault Durant for any decision he makes. It's his life and career. That said, if he does go to GSW, I'm with those who say they'll take a break from the NBA for a while. I don't know if I'll actually be able to do that...but really, what is the point if players are just going to build these super teams?

Yeah I'm guessing those emoji's mean the same thing we're all feeling....

If Durant goes to GS, I'll actively be cheering for the Cavs in next year's finals. Lovely.
The most charitable interpretation is that it's ethnic cleansing and massive war crimes.

Is the Miami meeting over yet???????? Seems to me the longer we hear no news he's coming here the more we are going to get BONED. I have lost all confidence. Caveman was right all along...........this dude is going to Golden State. Props to Caveman.
