    Yeah he gone...but do we really want a guy that has a history of fighting with his teammates and doesn't know how to use social media properly?

    I don’t like him, but I’d take him in a second, because he’s a scoring machine in his prime and he’s clutch. That makes up for LeBron’s declining. Plus if I sold my soul to root for LeBron I could easily do it for Durant.

    dude is a cupcake, I'm sure he knows deep down most of the warriors dont really respect him, they appreciate him making it easier for them to get chips but at end of the day most of these Warriors probably have Greens mentality that they could've won chips w/o KD.

    I bet Draymond is the guy that is left out in the cold, and that they choose to retain everyone else.

    Not sure if you’re serious.

    This is not directed entirely at you but just some thoughts of mine...

    This guy, KD, is hyperscrutinized for jumping from OKC to the Warriors and so everything he does is just crapped on and judgements rendered. We as a fan base overlooked Kobe who has so many flaws as a human being... and who also fought and belittled his teammates and the narcissist who is LeBron but cannot give some latitude to KD? That’s hypocritical.

    LeBron I tolerate because he is a Laker. KD would be easy to root for. I admire the player who in my opinion is the best in the world right now.

    The Warriors don’t win the last two without KD period.

    Kobe faught with Shaq and probably got him traded (essentially costing us potential titles), and I've given Kob (and his fans) s*** for it, but he's nothing like KD cause them rings yo!

    Had he won with Russ and then left, that's fine. But losing a 3-1 lead to those guys only to join up with them that summer is trash.

    Also Kobe wanted to win one without Shaq and Shaq one without Kob. KD ditches the squad to go win one with the dudes that closed the door on him in humiliating fashion...da f***?!?

    Bron's a narcissist, but last night he didn't spend all his time in front of a mirror...



    I wouldnt mind KD here, cause them rings yo! But I prefer to take down the monstars rather than have them implode via the cap (which ironically is how they got together in the first place).

    I love Klay too, but I want him to stay as well so that when it's Lakers-Dubs in the WCF, it will be that much more sweeter to take down this era's most dominant team.

    I'd rather have Klay, LESS DRAMA, LINEAGE and obviously grew up a Kobe/Laker fan....I want someone with history with us and has love for us rather than a "mercenary"

    Green repeatedly called Durant “a b****” after he was called out by the two-time NBA Finals MVP in the huddle for not passing him the ball, sources said. The organization is of the belief that Green cut too deep in his disagreement with Durant, sources said.

    Klay Thompson, who is typically reserved, spoke up in the locker room to the surprise of his teammates about the altercation and stressed the importance of sticking together, sources said.

    Gotcha. You would rather beat them than have one of them join us. I respect that.

    I think you got my point that these guys all have flaws and to point fingers at one and not at the other is hypocritical.

    I’d take KD or Klay... either one I would be thrilled to have here.

    Also, the fact the Warriors chose KD over Green is just wrong. They shouldn’t have suspended Green. Let men settle this as men. Now, this might fracture the team. Good job Warriors front office.

    Vash, is there a chance for 2 max with a S&T opt for say Leonard if he makes it known that he wont reup with Tor? And obviously signing one of Klay or Kd?
