    Default Would KD make the Warriors better or worse?

    Obviously getting a player of his calibre on a team like theirs would be amazing. But would it eff up their current chemistry?

    Discuss.

    Durant and Lebron would put them over the 80 win mark.

    Fit is great and everything but lets be serious, most of the time better players make a better team and in this case it would be MUCH better players.

    If KD could change his priorities if he joined Golden State it would be fine. He could get less minutes, less shots and far less isos; and be asked to give more effort consistently on the defensive end. His scoring will drop but his efficiency and assists will both probably rise.

    Durant's the perfect fit when asking which superstar would work best with the Warriors.

    You kiddin' me dude? They wouldn't lose a game. That's not an exaggeration, a starting lineup of Steph/Klay/Durant/Green/Bogut wouldn't lose one game.

    82-0 with Durant if they stay healthy, although any team can have a fluke game, so maybe 81-1 or 80-2

    Kobe stans would roll back to KD to stan him. At the top of his game he's as good a shooter as Curry.

    This would be the '14 Spurs on roids. Their shooters wouldn't be good 3 and D spot up shooters, but at mininum All-Stars and their two best players MVPs. Individual production would go down, though, without a rise in pace.

    They would have to dump Bogut. Ezeli would be starting.

    Curry/Livingston
    Klay/Barbosa
    Durant/Rush
    Draygod/Looney
    Ezeli/Varejao

    The dubs can keep Iggy if the dubs and thunder agree to a double sign and trade involving Durant for Barnes. The Thunder might do it in order to avoid losing KD without compensation but Barnes would have to agree too.

    I agree. He's definitely the best superstar fit for GS. (not that they would need another one)
    Imagine the headaches for the defense handling Steph Klay KD and Green? It is just beyond ridiculous.

    Only thing that could be problematic is shot distribution, but then again ... KD is probably the best fit (he often lets Westbrook take a ton of shots, so why not Steph).
