Durant haters, get over it. He put in 9 years with OKC. How many times has Lebron left teams to form super teams?

Nothing jumps out in the stats except 3-point ears
11-24 (GS) and 14-38 (CLE)
Point ears? Thanks Apple
Great bull fight Warriors!
Jerry West still watching from the tunnel.

If the Warriors get a quality starting rim protecting center, they'll be even better. Pechaulia 0 points 3 rebounds.

Uh,
Opponents shot a measly 44.8 percent at the rim with KD contesting
There are 24 players who contested at least 50 shots at the rim in the 2017 playoffs. The only players with better success rates than Durant were Toronto's Serge Ibaka (40 percent) and Jonas Valanciunas (43.7).
Durant's "wingspan" is 7 feet. Not something I would know, but I measure mine at 68 inches.
To put it another way, when Durant is in the vicinity, opponents miss an astonishing 55 percent of their layups.
Well Blue, just me and you - must be a double clutch, eh?
Pregame (not last night)
Jerry was instrumental in getting Durant to Oakland, though he didn't payu for his plane ticket.
Jerry West sold him on, more titles, more fun, part of a collective, youll get more open shots, higher percentage. And people in a year will say, Kevin Durant, hes a better player now. No. Hes playing with smarter and better players.
Dress for success

I'm glad KD got the MVP.
Could they have done it without him? Yes. They did it the first time, and though they choked it, they still went 7 games last year, which is more than the Cavs can say either time they lost it to GSW.
At least we can safely put this flash in the pan rumor to bed!

What will be interesting is how the Warriors will handle the new contracts for Durant, Curry, Iguodala, Livingston, etc. Maybe Durant won't opt out to help keep the team together and strengthen some weak points.

Kevin Durant gets my vote as the Chuck Pratt of basketball. Gets it done with smooth, effortless technique. I think he could easily become a good climber if he put his mind to it. Hard to make that kind of money in climbing though.

I think there are two photos, but it's to reinforce that "the clothes make the man", not how many shots he can block. I think.
Let me sleep on it.
