KD's independent doctor cleared him as well. That wouldn't exactly help his case.

This. And I think this is just some fool on a dumb sports talk show trying to get some interest in a show. If Wojo or someone reputable reports it I might believe it.

that rumor originates here

Lol, you can chastise Draymond for being an idiot in the moment, but he just said or lashed out what probably needed to be said or called out. KD DID have one foot out the door since the beginning of last year, if not sooner.

I think KD will soon find out that winning championships was all about learning to co-exist and thrive with equally brilliant and driven individuals like himself. Which the Warriors had in abundance.

Going to NYC to be with friends might be emotionally and psychologically better for him but I'm willing to bet he wont attain the level of success he had in 3 years here. And he is probably okay with that.

This, Dray just had the balls to say what the whole team felt. It has to be frustrating as hell when as a team you have your best player having 1 foot out the door since the start of the season. The other reasons why KD left were all bs him being butt hurt, KD is just emo and not your typical athlete. Looking back at it I have no problem what Dray did knowing that there was nothing that could be done to make KD stay. Dude even had a problem with Kerr supposedly

This one foot out the door talk is borderline idiotic.

Durant is praised for signing short term under market deals simply to allow us to sign other players and now you guys are chastising him for doing so.

Have it both ways.

the first 2 years were understandable. The last was not.
Bob Myers gave him a blank check to write down his terms. Bob Myers said so himself. No negotiation needed. KD could write down whatever he wanted.

As soon as KD signed that last 1 and 1, the speculation started from the outside, and whatever was being felt or seen on the inside started to gain momentum.

There are members of the organization concerned that Durant's behavior is a sign that he's already got one foot out the door. - March 6th, 2019

He gone. f**k it.

This is why I wasn't a huge KD fan. He never really felt like one of the guy's. I always saw him as a player that just came for rings. I couldn't understand the fans that would favor him over our core guys that built the championship foundation that KD never could build in OKC.

This can we stop talking about him. No one cares if he is on his feelings for the past 3 yrs.

Avery Bradley got released, anyway we sign this dude?

People should be more upset about Iggy being gone. Dude was there for everything and his defense was amazing. We have more than enough firepower to win games but Iggy gone and Klay coming back late is gonna hurt. DLo sucks in defense so basically all we have is Dray and Looney.

Sure his defense will be missed and the Warriors never would have traded him if KD and Klay had come back healthy and they were going for another title this year. However, given the team's situation this year and the chance to get DLo, moving Iggy was something they had to do to get under the cap. This was going to be his last year with the team anyway and with basically no chance to win a title trading him just made a lot of sense.
