Durant will be out all next year. He could then have a "Gordon Hayward" type recovery and be a shell of his former self in year 2 of that contract. It is possible the Durant everyone knows could not return until his age 33 season in his third year on that Brooklyn contract.
Good to see that high quality management and culture have turned another sad franchise around but the real results of this Durant signing may not happen until the 2012-22 season. So glad that dumpster fire that is the Knicks wasn't rewarded with Durant and Kyrie. I said months ago Durant and Kyrie seemed much more likely because of the core players that would be there. Rather see those two in Brooklyn than the Knicks, who I despise beyond belief.
