Kevin Durant’s post-Warriors vision has gone wildly awry in Brooklyn, but hindsight is always 20-20

Suffice it to say, things have not gone as Kevin Durant planned in Brooklyn. Three years, seven playoff wins and one series victory. The only team to be swept out of the 2022 playoffs. James Harden was injured and out of shape and generally a shell of his former self before forcing a trade. Kyrie Irving appears to be on the cusp of a relocation. Durant, who is basically backed into a corner now, is reportedly mulling his own future with the Nets.

Meanwhile, the Golden State Warriors, the dynasty Durant left to try to prove his independent championship merits, just won another title, their fourth in the last eight years, proving Draymond Green’s contentious point that they never really needed Durant to compete for, and win, championships.

The Warriors, of course, were much better with Durant, who’s arguably the greatest pure scorer of all time and took his game to even greater heights with Golden State. But they won before him, and now they’ve won after him.
