    KD has a complicated legacy. Lebron won a title without D Wade; D Wade won a title without Lebron; Steph won a title before and after KD; Kobe won titles without Shaq; Kawhi won a title without the Spurs Big 3; heck even Olajuwon won a title without Drexler. Dirk, Giannis, and Jokic all have titles that will be forever tied to them and no other superstar. So where does that leave KD’s legacy since it will always be tied to the Warriors dynasty?

      I don't think its complicated at all. He is a great individual talent but he has 0 leadership skills and is not enough to be the best player on a championship team without fully stacking the deck in his favor. He's got all the talent to be a top 5 player of all time, but doesn't have the intangibles. Just like Charles Barkley said a few years ago, "he's a bus rider not a bus driver".

      Steph's 2022 title wouldn't exist if KD had opted not to do the sign & trade, when he left GS & went to Brooklyn. Recall, GSW flipped KD into D'Lo, then D'Lo into Andrew Wiggins & draft picks (one of which turned into Jordan Poole). Maybe KD should have left them with nothing. After all, both Draymond & Bob Myers took public shots at KD after they called him first & helped turn them into a dynasty, but only SC30 gets credit for it.

Lebron and kd moved around so much to be champions. Curry stuck it out with his team and won his 4th ring with his team.

    The biggest problem KD has created for himself is demanding to be traded. When a team has to give up that many assets, they become thin going forward. He's now just a performer to sell tickets and merchandise, because the team can't build a proper threat around him to challenge most of the playoff teams. If he didn't know it then, I bet he's figuring it out now. He could have won a title with the Nets, but he had very emotionally challenged stars with him. He needs to remain patient and just hoop as he says. In time he'll be a free agent and then he must not do a sign and trade, because that is just as detrimental to his new teams ability to form a championship contender. It's either the most money, or a lot of money and a chance to win it all.

If the Warriors came back after the injuries to him and Klay and won a Championship again when they were older like Steph did, the stories would have been changed because the comeback would have been seen a lot more difficult and against a younger NBA. Steph accomplishing it without him and KD not winning it in Brooklyn is what brought the conversation back.

    Alot of stars nowadays are not well educated on the trading mechanisms nor are their agents spending the time to explain it to them. What's the issue you might ask? Trading requires the matching of salaries.
    These stars simply think that they can name a team that they want to be traded to, and the team will insist on a low-ball offer to get their hands on the star player. It doesn't work that way. Most times, the star play is on max salary which is close to 25% of the salary cap. The team have to match that salary before they can initiate the trade! They have no choice but to gut their bench to get you! If the team was known for its bench depth, you coming in have to make up for the production, not just bringing your production but increasing it.

    No I find it highly unlikely that KD wouldn’t go to Golden State if he had to do it over. I think the only things he really probably regrets or doesn’t look back fondly on are the initial criticisms of the decision and how things went and ended that final season. He got 2 seasons of being on one of not only being on potentially the best team ever assembled, but two rings, two finals MVPs and what’s more, the exact thing he had been looking for and wanting on a roster on the floor and seemingly what he has been looking for since. The unselfishness, the ball movement, the not having to just put everything on his shoulders. Enough so that he had the backing and energy on the floor to show he could be an elite defender.

  • @MrRicklynch57

    KD, needs to watch that movie, "It's A Wonderful Life". He truly did have everything he needed and wanted with the Warriors. Steph stepped back as a scorer and Kerr's offense opened up easy baskets for KD. Every player in Golden State had a role and only Klay and KD were looking to score every time they touched the ball. In Phoenix all 5 players were trying to score 60 every night. Durant only had to ball on the Warriors and Steph would be the leader. Phoenix was a bunch of ballers with no path. Phoenix was so disfunctional no one wanted to play there, and the Warriors were able to remain deep with veterans like Cousins, West, and Livingston. People like Charles Barkley got in Durant's head by saying he rides the bus. However, no one has won a championship on their own. Jordan had a Big 3, Magic had a Big 5, Russel had a Big 10, Bird had a Big 3, Isaiah had the Bad Boys. He should've just stayed with the Warriors and embraced being a Warrior like Kareem embraced being a Laker.
