Kevin Durant says he felt like he was going to an underdog team when he signed with the Warriors 👀

“They never been a winning organization, Nobody liked Golden State… I’m looking at the totality of the franchise, not what happened the last 5 years.”

Kevin Durant’s explanation for joining the Warriors is going viral again, and it’s easy to see why. While most fans looked at Golden State as a 73-win superteam fresh off a Finals appearance, KD says he saw something different. He looked at the franchise’s entire history, not just their recent success. To him, it wasn’t about hopping on the favorite—it was about joining a group of players he respected, playing a style of basketball he loved, and competing at the highest level possible. 👀

Whether you agree with the decision or not, there’s no denying how much it changed NBA history. Two championships, two Finals MVPs, countless unforgettable moments, and one of the most dominant teams the league has ever seen. Nearly a decade later, people are still debating the move, which shows just how impactful it really was.

What’s your take: was KD’s move to Golden State a smart basketball decision, or the weakest move by a superstar ever? 🤔🏆🐍
