What you guys think about the pick? Good athlete. Good size. Decent on offense in the paint. But he's soft. No bet aggressive. Not that good on defense or the boards. Maybe green will rub off on him

 

Oladipo is a big upgrade over Waiters. Ilyasova can shoot the 3 that Ibaka was doing. Ibaka doesn't block shots, rebound, or defend like he used to. Good trade for OKC

 

Ballsy for sure. Great if Durant signs.

 

It's crazy how many max deals are being given to mediocre players right now. Doesn't look like Durant is leaving OKC, and now word is that Harrison Barnes might be getting more than $20m/year ($22.5m is the max he can get).

 

Yeah... way over paying. Talent pool is soft

 

Damn. Did the W's put all their eggs in the Durant basket? If he doesn't jump ship to the W's, are we stuck with just Barnes and Ezeli coming back? Seems like all the 2nd tier FAs that sports writers say the W'a are interested in are signing deals now.

Please enlighten me as this isn't looking good to me right now...

 

Thought Barnes was leaving for that max deal?

 

Well...once the moratorium is lifted and Barnes actually puts pen to paper (I think July 9 or something), then the Warriors have 72 hours to match or watch him walk...

 

KD a Dub!

 

Wow, I'm giddy with excitement today!!

Harrison Barnes, enjoy your max deal in Dallas.

Bogut is already salty, has taken the Warriors logo off his twitter page. He's gone as well.

Ezeli is gone too.

Warriors looking for a cheap big man through free agency.

Kevin Durant taking a 2 year $54m deal. Which is essentially a 1 year deal.

 

OKC is gonna be a bottom dweller team once Westbrook leaves. I wonder when we'll start seeing OKC fans burning Durant jerseys...

that link don't work...but yeah it's happening

 

Wow. Wasn't sure it'd happen but hoping for many moments of excitement.

Let's see how they negotiate both Durant and Curry next season. Wonder if he'll bounce out if they don't win next year...

 

Why do you think he signed essentially a 1 year deal. Curry is a UFA next year. If curry splits I guarantee you Durant is gone too.

He made this move to take a shot a winning a championship this year. I hope they come up against the cavs again and he destroys lebron.

I don't see Durant playing until he's pushing 40. I think he'll retire younger than people expect and he wants to do that with a couple rings. I don't see how they'll be able to afford them both next year unless Curry agrees to a massively back fed contract. Curry is gonna have quite a few teams trying to pull him away from GS. Especially if they win another title..

 

The local media reporters are saying the Warriors will have enough cap space to sign both Curry (Bird rights) and Durant to max contracts. I don't know the math behind it all, but it's possible. Curry's not going to leave Warriors...Management is making every effort to win it all for the next few years. Can't say the same for any other team. And you'll still have Thompson and Green on the team for years to come.
