But like I said, I made a decision based upon what I wanted to do and how I felt. That includes one quote from Kerry. Durant said he wanted to be with the Warriors long-term and didn’t want to go through the free agency process again.

The last point i want to make is the point about him leaving OKC. He deserves the right to make his own decision and do what makes him happiest.
Durant said his relationship with Westbrook was great.
Charles Barkley never won an National Basketball Association title during his 16-year career. “And I just said, ‘I want to go to the Warriors'”.
But in looking “to find an opportunity that encourages my evolution as a man”, as Durant wrote in his essay, the 2014 MVP will join forces with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala as he looks to help the Warriors regain their throne as National Basketball Association champions and earn his first title. Durant doesn’t agree with that. “Nothing in this league is easy, there’s not shortcuts”. There are no shortcuts. “First of all, they just beat us”. I don’t know anybody here. He was an All-Star 11 times but only made the Finals once, in his 1992-93 MVP season, losing to Michael Jordan‘s Chicago Bulls in six games. But some of Durant’s white fans are furious over his decision, setting fire on his NBA basketball jerseys.
Durant said that he hopes to improve with the team and lead as best he can.
“I was disappointed. I was disappointed like I was disappointed when LeBron [James] went to Miami”, Barkley told ESPN on Wednesday. Obviously it’s tough. We were teammates for so long and had a lot of great memories. That love doesn’t fade. Tears were shed, but this is a new journey for me. I trusted my gut, I trusted my instincts. “I just felt like I needed to be a part of it”.
Since Durant agreed to terms with the Warriors, reports emerged of some fracturing in his relationship with Westbrook. They should be better and could end up being the best yet. To Leandro Barbosa, Brandon Rush and Festus Ezeli.
“We develop this thing where you keep telling these guys, hey man, if you don’t win a championship you’re a bum”.
The press conference ended on Kerr’s statement.
Meanwhile, several speculations surfaced regarding the real reason why Durant chose to drop the Thunder.

Kevin Durant: “We live in a comic book world where either you’re a villian or a superhero if you’re in this position”. I mean I am a huge Thunder fan and I do not know if I will ever forgive KD.
