    It's not the market it's the ring. A ring, in the players minds (Which is reinforced by the media and fans) is that their careers are not complete without a ring. So Durant is making sure he gets at least one. He might only be there one year. But if this was Portland (or SA) with Curry and Klay and Green....there is no doubt in mind Durant would chase the ring here as well.

    W. T. F.

    Whoever wrote that clearly forgot who their audience was.

    Someone should have pity on the OKC fans and translate that to a sixth-eighth grade reading level.

    Well, the NBA has always wanted parody in the league. Now they have it.

    Oh wait, what's that? "Parity"? Is that what the NBA wanted? Ah, the league is totally screwed on that front.

    Ugh, this league is a total farce now.

    Teams should refuse to help GS out. Doing so is pure stupidity.

    Cognitively, I have no clue why someone would use the word cognitively.

    Nope. This is a golden opportunity for some team to extract a pound of flesh from GS with a focus on picks and future compensation that looks 3 to 4 years out.

    Guys, I'm still holding out hope that Durant is bad with holidays and has mixed up the 4th of July with April Fool's Day.

    Well if we could take them to the cleaners I'd agree.

    We'll renounce Leonard and they will sign him and be the first team to shoot all threes in every game.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Those are the most rage-filled cupcakes and flags I've ever seen. Damn, Westbrook.

    There's a bright side to all this. Now when Paul moves the team to Seattle, the new name for the team will make sense:

    Washington Generals

    Fuck this. Durant's a bitch. Fuck going after Bogut or Ezeli. They're both scrubs that won't make us better.
