Kevin Durant is going to the Warriors and everyone is freaking out about it
In case you’ve been offline or under a rock, the big news today is Kevin Durant’s announcement that he’s leaving the Oklahoma City Thunder for the Golden State Warriors. Durant broke the news in an article for The Players’ Tribune earlier today, and well, people are talking. And by people, I mean the entire internet.
Don't give a damn what anyone says: weak move by KD. You go to GSW, the team who beat you, when you're already on a title contender? Please!

Fans of the other 29 teams that aren't Golden State – let's have a scared group hug.

Just to be clear: Michael Jordan NEVER would have left Bulls to join forces w/ other superstars. But LeBron and Durant are not MJ.

Some reactions from former Cats:
I'm not really surprised honestly! KD made a great decision! Joining the Warriors makes a lot of sense. The guy wants to win championships!!
