There are issues that people are dismissing as them being bored.
1. Draymond just can't shoot (41.2 from the field and 23.7 from 3's) and teams are just daring him to. This allows his defender to sag off him and act as a free safety. Green was very effective because his shot was at least decent and he could be a playmaking 4 from the top of the key. However, his shooting has continued to get worse and this year it's sunk to new lows.
2. Durant is likely gone after this season and teammates know it. This has caused issues with Green and the togetherness the entire team used to play with is gone.
3. Age and/or mileage are catching up. The Warriors' core has been playing really long seasons and are trying to reach their 5th straight Finals. Durant's 30, Curry is turning 31 in a couple of months, and Iguodala (a huge piece of their team) will be 35 this month. Again, the amount of games could be catching up.
Not true, his statement pretty much said that he's looking to get a fat paycheck. Warriors can offer that, also the age/mileage might be true, but it's also because their lack of depth/bench is worrisome. Iggy huge piece of their team is 35, and looks like he just turned 40.
California has the highest income tax in the country, so when you factor that with the overall cost of living, then it would be beneficial to him to sign elsewhere. For example, why not sign with Dallas (Texas has no income tax) and join forces with Doncic, a good friend of his in Jordan, Barnes, Smith, and be coached by one of the best coaches in the game, a good owner, and a franchise willing to spend?
I mean, I could see that happening, but Dallas is probably nowhere on Durant's list. I see him heading towards a big market area like NYK, Clippers, or staying back with GSW. Sure the tax would suck, but Durant says he loves the Bay area.
I also don't think you understand what Durant's meaning behind getting paid means.
He wants to be given the max contract, it's about the understanding that since he's a superstar, he should be paid like one. He took a pay cut, which would insult any other superstar, or probably never happen. It's more about the fact that he wants the max contract recognition. KD already boasts high sales in his endorsements/shoe deals.
I understand that completely, but I don't think you realize just how extreme the income tax is. For example, based off 2017 salaries Steph Curry's contract of $34,682,550 caused him to pay city/state taxes of $4,105,453. Harden's contract was $28,299,399, but he only paid $623,561 in city/states taxes because his earnings are in Texas. So just because Durant's gross pay is higher by re-signing with Golden State, doesn't mean he'll net much more if he signed with Dallas. Especially if he does a one-plus one and opts out to take a full 5 year max from Dallas in the summer of 2020. Again, you also have to factor in the cost of living. According to the site below, living in San Francisco is 86.8% more expensive than living in Dallas.

However, since Golden State could offer him a 5th year with a higher percentage increase, on paper he could gross more from them than any other team. That said, as indicated above, there are ways around that and other variables to factor.
