    KD left because he didn't want his legacy to be that of a ringless star. Can't beat them join them type mindset. The ironic part was he choked away a huge series lead. I am not mad he left... everyone makes their own path.
    They do, some of us in life have integrity though and pick the right path....some take the easy path....each to their own I guess.

    Gonna be so good when they all choke together and Klay gets his feelings hurt again.

    This is perhaps one of the most stupid posts I have read on any forum. I get the idea that people completely disagree with KD joining GSW, no matter what the reason.

    But to compare it to the atrocities of Timothy McVeigh is just not cool.

    I do and I don't. On one hand, it's incredibly wack that he left after his dismal performance led them to lose to GSW. It really feels like Westbrook pretty much did his part, but KD just threw up some absolute clunkers in games 5 and game 6. All he needed to do was shoot like 44% or something, and he shot under 40 in each of those games. KD played fine in Game 7, but it just feels like he was neutralized at the most important moments. Also, it feels like OKC could beat GSW if they still had KD, but he still bounced and joined the team that he lost to. That's just kind of unforgivable.

    On the other hand, when you get to KD's level, MVP, four time scoring champ, a bunch of all nba teams, etc, Rings become important to differentiate yourself from other GOATS. So, he can get this chip and I doubt many people will be talking about in 2030 when he has two or three chips. But man, if he doesn't win? Oh man lmao.

    he left because of Westbrook.

    It's pretty obvious.

    I see sports like a regular career/livelihood. If the opportunity arises to be in a better situation you take it. Better being you're happier. Your personal well being. You don't owe anybody anything. Sucks as a fan. Hate the game, not the player.

    He doesn't have to live there. He can live wherever he wants and go wherever he wants. As you said, he's a mulit-millionaire. How much time do you think Lebron spends in Cleveland?
