To boo or not to boo Kevin Durant.

This debate has been floating around the Oklahoma sports world since KD decided to turn join Golden State.

FACT: KD was incredible to the people of Oklahoma - The Moore Tornado donation shouldn't be forgotten - and if you're cynical enough to say "yea but he did it only for his taxes." please look back and think did you donate a damn thing? If not hush it. Money is money .

FACT: KD ran his mouth off a lot on social media about not being a follower and how he thought superteams were lame.

FACT: KD doesnt really owe anyone anything, he made his choice for business and financial reasons.

FACT: You don't owe KD anything either,  you don't owe him undying loyalty for his time in OKC or donation history.

FACT: KD did change.

FACT: KD didn't do what Lebron did.  Lebron joined a Heat squad along with Bosh in order to establish a title capable team. KD joined a ready-made contender, no assembly necessary


I'm just a random dude on the interwebs. I'm not going to say your feelings on the booing of KD are justified one way or the other. My personal feelings on this: I'm sports hurt over it, I don't understand him taking this avenue as a competitor at his age but I will never fault a man for choosing to make more money.

I'm choosing  not to care about this matchup as OKC is outgunned, I expect KD will get a mixture of boos and cheers during his intro, frankly I no longer care.
