Durant and OKC gave GS all they could handle, and then he does this... weak. I think it clearly shows that Westbrook intends to leave next year though. If they are smart they trade him for an all star and a solid guy at the all star break. Durant deserves to be viewed as a chump for his destination thougj
You may as well hand the 16-17 trophy to the Warriors now. The only thing that hurts the Warriors' chances is that they're trading Bogut and they'll probably have to gut their bench - which I felt was a huge part of what made them so great.
Also - if this is a 1 year rental (and that's possible because they have to pay Curry next year) - it's possible that they won't gel fast enough to win a title. Lebron/Wade/Bosh didn't win in year 1. Shaq/Kobe/Malone/Glove ended with disappointment.
Also, like Jason said, the Warriors lost because they got outmuscled and dominated in the paint. Not sure how Durant fixes that.
