What if westy said that he doesnt want to be traded, realizing that any team involved in the trade would lose one big asset or multiple assets and he doesnt want to go to a team in shambles? Durant was also harping the same tune, saying that his mind is not in FA...then he bolted out still, leaving Presti no choice.

Dunno, but I trust Westbrook at what he says more than KD. So I'd believe him.

Plus Durant was always clear that it wasn't a foregone conclusion that he was staying.
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

Speculating on Westbrook's plan by Durant's comments is fruitless. When Westbrook and Durant met before July 1st, whatever plan Westbrook had and told Durant about, Durant isn't going to tell anyone now - whether Westbrook said he'd be leaving, staying, or "I am not sure yet".

Actually they didn't talk about it.

Good deal for the thunder. This gives them time to negotiate a better trade for westbrooor possibly let him play the season out. They were never gonna get enough for him as just a rental.
