Many Teams Courted KD However Durant Is Heading West

The Golden State Warriors became the 1st team to lose a NBA Finals after being up 3-1 after going down at home in Game 7 to Cleveland. Kevin Durant was the biggest free agent prize during the summer of 2016. His Thunder were up 3-1 vs. the Warriors only to see Golden State come back and win the Western Conference Finals. Durant will be leaving behind the city of Oklahoma City and fellow superstar Russell Westbrook. Golden State won the bidding war for KD. Durant is heading to Oakland with a 2 year deal. As much as their is happiness in Oakland their has to be sadness in Oklahoma City. OKC has been trying to get back to the NBA Finals for the 1st time since 2012. They really could see it touch it feel it vs. Golden State up 3-1 and it never manifest. Obviously KD first visit to Oklahoma City will be circled on mainly calendars next season.
